👍 Pros
My kid hit his first-ever home run with this bat.
Break it in right and the CF will preform. It’s forgiving on mis-hits too!
We broke it in with tee hits, and my son hit missiles and balls over the fence on the first day.

👎 Cons
Disappointing mid-season pop-up infield hits. I've always used Easton before, won't try other brands again.
Great pop, but poor performance when missing sweet spot. Treated with care, but still cracked in.
My son's bat barrel cracked, leaving him without a bat during playoffs.

“

The DeMarini CF is a classic model that goes back to 2015 and offers one of the hottest models (2017) but is limited in use as its performance surpasses bat standards. Overall, the CF has a classic design which has been the same since 2015. A two-piece composite that offers a large barrel and sweet spot with a lightweight handle that creates a whip-like feel to it with the flexible connection between the handle and barrel.
