| My favorite demarini was the diablo. It was a single piece like they have to use now. The thing could knock the ball a mile. Unfortunately, i think they quit making it a few years ago. |

| | Member | That's because Easton didn't release a true up to standard BBCOR bat last year. They were behind on it so they waited until this year. I have tested most BBCORs personally and also have spoke to many people who have purchased them and the consistant feedback is the S3. |

| Easton Black Magic I guess I am dating myself when I can tell you guys that I used a Easton Black Magic, watched Todd Helton swing the white Easton, then I remember the first carbon composite bats, C-Core I think that was what they were called by Easton. Of course, back then you could get a 33 inch bat 2 3/4 diameter and it just weighed 28 oz.
Would love to take a swing and actually feel the sweet spot on one of these new models the boys are using now. Just had to take a trip down memory lane. |

| I know Farragut is hitting Demarini too.
The word out is the Voodo is cap heavy while the CF5 is balanced more evenly and has a cupped end. Hitter preference.
Both are suppose to be solid choices. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| | Member | MUDDVOL----The new bats they have been using past couple years are suppose to mimic wood bats so there isn't as much pop in them. Homeruns that were barely clearing the fence a few years ago are lazy fly balls now. Personally I like the new modifications because it brings the game back into it. The bats were getting so out of hand that kids that had no business hitting it out were parking it. Yes I know homeruns are glamorous, but the new bats make you learn to truly hit instead of just crushing it. |
