2025 DeMarini CF Zen Composite USSSA Certified Bat (-8) 20 oz 29" (Used)

The 2025 DeMarini CF Zen Composite bat is a USSSA certified model designed for players in the Kid Pitch age group (9 to 13 years old). Its 29-inch length combined with a -8 drop weight and 2 3/4-inch barrel dimensions offers a balanced mix of power and control. Constructed fully from composite materials, this bat delivers a lighter swing weight and a larger sweet spot, which helps reduce vibration and improve hitting consistency. The USSSA certification ensures it meets approved standards for youth tournaments. This used bat is suitable for players developing their hitting mechanics who are transitioning to more competitive play. This bat fits players comfortable with a 29-inch length and a -8 drop, meaning it has 8 ounces less weight than its length—ideal for young athletes who need a bat that is manageable in swing speed without sacrificing barrel size. The composite build helps dampen sting on off-center hits, making it appropriate for hitters working on timing and contact. It suits kids aiming for a blend of power potential and bat control in youth baseball leagues that require USSSA certified equipment. Only used for 3 games last season

The DeMarini CF Zen baseball bat features a lightweight, two-piece composite design for smooth swings and excellent bat control. Its Paraflex Plus Composite Barrel provides a large sweet spot for consistent, powerful hits, while the 3-Fusion End Cap enhances the sweet spot for greater exit velocity. For even more power, consider the 2017 Green Zen (aka the Green GOAT).

The CF Zen has been discontinued. The early models from 2017 - 2021 were called CF Zens. After that, DeMarini changed the name to CF. The first models of the CF Zen were very high-performance. But they also tended to break, so DeMarini made them stronger, made them stiffer, made them more durable. And when they did that, the bats didn't hit as well. The early models were better performers than the later models.
