Well, I am pretty sure that it's not the case, Casiopea. Before seeing Yuri's post, I have honestly never heard that expression before. But then again, it all depends on where you live. My other guess was that if you lay the big wood on something you give it a big shot by whacking the ball with a baseball bat and hitting a homerun. However, online context proves otherwise. Poking around some more I found out the slangish part of the phrase. I hope this is it.
