### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

  

**PROS**

-   My son loves his Bonesaber bat due to its large sweet spot, perfect for power hitters. It's one of the top bats in his NY little league and is highly sought-after by other kids.
    
-   My son, who plays in the 7U league, is a good hitter, especially when hitting to the opposite field. He has been practicing in the cage with the Warstick bat, and the ball jumps off the bat. This lightweight bat has made his hands quicker to the ball.
    
-   My kid loves the feel of the taper knob like a wood bat. Also, it’s a great looking bat.
    

**CONS**

-   Bat doesn't have expected power for the price. Similar "pop" to $100 Rawlings Threat. Expected better.
    
-   No pop from this bat.
    
-   Bat is not very powerful when new, vibration on mishits uncomfortable. Weight and balance good. Was hoping for more power with use.

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Warstic Bonesaber is a single-piece aluminum bat known for its unique flared knob. It resembles some of the wood bats that the pro ball players use. Which is why I think some players go for it. But performance-wise, it's not my favorite bat. It's stiff and a little on the heavy side.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)


**PROS**



* My 14-year-old son needed a new BBCOR bat. He likes the one he got as it swings light and the barrel seems huge, although it's very loud.

**CONS**

The Baum Gold Stock series sets itself apart from competitors like the Victus V-Cut Maple and the Mizuno Bamboo Elite by merging wood's authentic feel and performance with composite durability. While the Victus and Mizuno models offer specialized designs for power and speed, the Baum Gold Stock's unique composite wood construction delivers notable durability and a balanced swing weight. This makes it an ideal choice for heavy hitters and frequent players who require a high-performance bat that withstands the test of time and intense usage.


### Progression of Baum Gold Stock Baseball Bat

Specific annual iterations like those common in metal or composite bat lines are not as explicitly defined for models like the Gold Stock, given the nature of wood and composite wood bat manufacturing and regulation. 



### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* The bat is solid and well-balanced, with a flared knob that feels good in the hands. Thanks to its +/- sweet spot, the ball jumps off the bat.
* My son used a Baum Gold bat for years in select ball and in college. The bat lasted for 7 years of playing year-round baseball. These bats have fantastic pop, you can hear it off the bat. He hit just under 600 for the tournament.
* Bought Gold stock for 16-year-old son on coaches' recommendation (former MLB players). Broke other brands' wood bats in 30 days hitting machine balls. Coaches suggested Baum bat.

**CONS**



* Two Baum bats broke during early spring games as the outer shell deteriorated, possibly due to the cold.
* The bat I received had several "air bubbles" in the paint. Additionally, there was a smooth and flat spot where the serial number is located. However, considering the price I paid, I expected better quality control."
* We had a chip come off the end cap where it meets the barrel, and we'll send it back before the warranty expires to get it fixed.


### **Certification**: BBCOR


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

The Baum Gold Stock is a specialty wood bat made of maple. It has a very high-performance design for a player who uses wood a lot. It features the max legal BBCOR barrel size of around 2.5 inches.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   I've always used Easton gear for baseball. Got this bat for my 9-year-old and it's impressive. Good pop and similar to the Easton Ghost, but with more power.
    
-   Nearly every player on our son's team uses or borrows this bat. It's popular because it hits home runs well.
    
-   I am 12 years old and I hit a home run in my last game with my Rawlings bat. Looking forward to next year!
    

**CONS**

-   I got two bats for my kids, a 29-11 and a 30-10. Both broke even though we used them properly and never misused them. I had to send them back to the manufacturer.
    
-   My son loved the bat, it improved his confidence and hitting skills. However, it cracked unexpectedly despite following the instructions. We're disappointed with the quality, and my son was heartbroken.
    
-   Although the bat was great while it worked, it's disappointing that it failed after just one year, especially not at the barrel. There seem to be manufacturing and durability issues with this expensive bat.
    

  

### Certification: USA, USSSA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Easton ADV 360 is a two-piece composite bat. It has a light swing and big barrel. Perfect for the younger hitter. I think it is popular because of the paint job, which is bright neon yellow. It is more of a look than a performance bat, but still a very good bat that doesn’t have a huge amount of breakage. It's an average bat for either Little League or USSSA.

The big barrels on the Marucci CAT X Composite and the Louisville Slugger META, both feature flexible-feeling two-piece composite constructions.

### Progression of the Rawlings ICON Baseball Bat:

  
2023 is the first year of the Rawlings ICON.

**PROS**

-   The Rawlings Icon is a beast on the field. Hits are powerful and consistent.
    
-   The sweet spot on this thing is like a magnet for the ball. It's tough as nails and can take a beating, which is exactly what you need in the game.

**CONS**

-   The stock grip is just kinda okay – not as sticky or comfy as I expected. It's no deal-breaker, though. Folks generally like to tweak their grips to suit their style.
    
-   I'm not a big fan of the tapered knob on the ICON because I like to feel the handle more at the bottom (purely preference), but the handle feels fantastic.
    
-   The barrel cracked at the base of the handle. Travel ball practice starts this week and his brand new Icon is useless.
    

### Certification: BBCOR, USSSA, and USA

### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The ICON is the new hot bat from Rawlings. It's the top bat in the market right now. In terms of sales, very popular. You've got a lot of guys online doing reviews on it. I think the hype comes from the merger between Easton and Rawlings. They've got a lot of technology and have come up with a really strong-performing bat this season.

While the Meta is known for its balanced swing and the Maxum for its extended barrel, The Goods aims to provide a combination of a heavy swing weight and a stiff barrel, catered towards hitters who prioritize distance and force over everything else. This laser-focused design on power makes The Goods a standout choice for serious sluggers.  
  

### Progression of The Goods series:

  

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

  

**2020 - [DeMarini The Goods](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/the-goods/l59750)**  
- Introduction of the X14 Alloy Barrel: A massive barrel designed for maximum stiffness and explosive sound.  
- Direct Connection: This feature was designed to provide a more direct transfer of energy and a stiffer feel on contact, appealing to power hitters.  
- Seismic End Cap: Made of the stiffest materials in the DeMarini lineup, this cap helps to deliver explosive energy transfer upon contact.  
  
**2021 - [DeMarini The Goods](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/the-goods/l59750)**  
- Continued use of X14 Alloy Barrel and Direct Connection features for optimized performance.  
- Introduction of Half + Half Technology: A continuation of DeMarini’s innovative approach, combining a composite handle and an alloy barrel for a perfect blend of speed, power, and feel.  
- Enhanced Seismic End Cap: Improved materials for better energy transfer and durability.  
  
**2022 - [DeMarini The Goods](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/the-goods/l59750)**  
- Refinement of the Half + Half Technology, allowing for an even greater energy transfer and reduced vibration.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   My son hit three home runs with the Goods bat at a college prospect camp this weekend. He says the current version feels amazing and is the best one yet.
    
-   I upgraded to this bat from my broken 2022 Goods. It has phenomenal pop and is the best in the Goods line.
    
-   This bat bangs!!! I bought this bat three weeks ago and this barrel is huge!
    

**CONS**

-   My son loved this bat from day one. After three weeks of use the plastic piece where the shaft meets the barrel cracked. Definitely expect something better than this for $450. Haven't started the warranty process yet so we'll see how that goes.
    
-   The bat handle now telescopes into the barrel after the junction cracked. We had expected better quality for the price and it's hard to accept a replacement that arrives 2-3 weeks later at best.
    
-   Bat bought 2 months ago broke when I dropped it. It's a good bat but not very durable. Connector piece broke and it telescoped.
    

  

### Certification: USSSA, USA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Goods is a top performer and the 2024 model is the most expensive hybrid bat on the market. It's an end loaded bat for that power hitter in your lineup. The alloy is strong, and it has a good whip to it. Overall, The Goods is in the top five in the hybrids for both BBCOR and youth. The youth was less popular because it was a heavier-feeling.

## Marucci CAT X Bat

The Marucci CAT X is a single-piece alloy bat that features a huge barrel and powerful out-of-the-wrapper performance. Designed with precision, the CAT X exemplifies Marucci's commitment to pushing the boundaries of technology and engineering in bat design. Founded in 2009 with a commitment to enhance the game using top-tier equipment, Marucci has since made significant advancements in bat technology thanks to direct collaboration with professional athletes. This relationship with some of the game's top players ensures Marucci's products are crafted with a keen understanding of what athletes truly need at the plate.

**Perfect bat for:** High school and collegiate players who demand elite performance, superior balance, and a more responsive feel from their equipment.


### Key features include:



* **AZR Alloy Construction:** Offers a more responsive microstructure for better feel, more forgiveness, and enhanced performance at the plate.
* **Multi-variable wall design:** Creates an expanded sweet spot and thinner barrel walls that are more forgiving after off-centered contact.
* **Ring-free barrel technology:** Provides maximum performance with no “dead” spots, ensuring every hit feels solid and powerful.
* **AV2 Anti-vibration knob:** Features an upgraded, finely tuned harmonic dampening system for better feel and less vibration.
* **Professionally Inspired Handle**: Features a removable taper and ergonomic knob shape for more top-hand control and comfortable swings.


### Top competitors comparison: The [Rawlings Velo ACP](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/rawlings/velo-acp/l164357) and the [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709)

Marucci's CAT X sets itself apart with its unique AZR alloy construction and anti-vibration technology. It is ideal for players looking for a blend of traditional feel and modern performance enhancements. While the Rawlings Velo ACP leads the field with its Accelerated Carbon Performance for a lighter swing, and the Easton ADV 360 capitalizes on its Launch Comp™ technology for higher flex and response, the CAT X shines with its superior balance, reduced vibration, and increased sweet spot thanks to its proprietary construction and design features.


### Progression of the Marucci CAT X Baseball Bat:


Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model. 


**2019 - [CAT8](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat9-2/l163499), CAT8 CONNECT, CAT COMPOSITE**



* CAT8, CAT8 Connect, and CAT Composite are launched.
* The barrels of CAT8 and CAT8 Connect are constructed using the new AZ105 alloy for higher performance at the sweet spot.
* Introduction of SDX EXT connection technology for a stiffer connection and improved energy transfer.
* CAT Composite, a two-piece composite bat, is introduced with SDX EXT and ring-free barrel construction. 


**2021 - [CAT9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat9-2/l163499) and CAT9 Connect**



* CAT9 and CAT9 Connect are released with the new AZR alloy for a more responsive microstructure.
* CAT9 features a 2nd Generation AV2 Anti-vibration knob and additional weight below the hands for better control.
* CAT9 Connect introduces the Outer-Locking System (OLS) for an even stiffer connection and virtually zero vibrations.

**2023 - [CATX](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-x/l175792), CATX Connect, and CATX Composite**



* The CATX, CATX Connect, and CATX Composite represent a significant generational change.
* CATX features AZR Alloy with new barrel profiles and an ergonomic, custom-shaped tapered handle.
* CATX introduces Liquid-Gel anti-vibration technology.
* CATX Connect and CATX Composite maintain the OLS and introduce S-40 composite handle for increased performance and energy transfer.
* Barrel profiles are reshaped for better balance, with a focus on data from the Baseball Performance Lab.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* Decent pop and has good barrel control. It seems lighter due to the way it;s balanced. If you’re thinking of moving up in size, do it with this bat.
* I got my son the CAT X BBCOR 33" bat. He chose it over his Voodoo One for his high school varsity games. The CAT X seems well-built, and other players using it have had no issues. In contrast, two of his teammates' Voodoo One bats have already broken this season.
* The grip is cushioned and comfortable. The liquid gel handle reduces vibrations and the "sweet spot" on the barrel is forgiving. Highly recommend this bat.

**CONS**



* The BBCOR Cat X is by far the worst Marucci we've ever bought. It has NO Pop and sounds like he's hitting rocks with the bat. The ball barely leaves the infield when he hits it. 
* Broken in by underhand toss of 160 pitches. Handle broke in a week. Wearing gloves saved the my son's hands.
* Unfortunately my son has been using this bat for only a few weeks and there is already something rattling in the handle.


### **Certification**: BBCOR and USSSA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

CATX came out in 2023. The first gen is a white ribbon silver bat. For the second run, Marucci came out with a version called the CATX Vanta. It's a blacked-out, limited-edition. Both gens are an alloy one-piece bat, both very strong performers. They took the alloy and strength from the CAT9 and applied the balance and feel from the CAT8 to develop the CATX.

## DeMarini Voodoo Baseball Bat

The DeMarini Voodoo is a popular bat known for its two-piece hybrid construction, combining an alloy barrel with a composite handle. This technological twist provides a sweet blend of pop, performance, and reduced hand sting for players—and has created some well-deserved hype for the Voodoo. Founded in 1989, DeMarini has emerged as an innovative designer for baseball bats at every level. The balanced swing weight and maximized pop of the Voodoo bat is proof of this progression.

**Perfect bat for:** Elite high school and collegiate players who want to maximize their hitting power without sacrificing speed and control.


### Key features include:



* **X14 Alloy Barrel:** Delivers a precision-engineered alloy for optimal weight distribution, providing a blend of speed, balance, and power.

* **ReAction End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without sacrificing swing speed, allowing players to drive the ball with greater force.
* **Two-Piece Hybrid Construction:** Combines a robust alloy barrel with a composite handle, ensuring durability and comfort during intense play.

Top competitors comparison: [The Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709) 

The DeMarini Voodoo stands out primarily for its superior vibration reduction and balanced swing weight. The Louisville Slugger Meta is known for its composite barrel that provides a larger sweet spot, while the Easton ADV 360 features an ultra-light swing weight and custom Lizard Skins grip. The choice between these models often comes down to personal preference between a lean towards power (DeMarini Voodoo), sweet spot size (Louisville Slugger Meta), or customization and swing weight (Easton ADV 360).

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* I enjoy the balanced weight distribution of the bat in my hands.
* The bat has a really good swing weight, and I know it won't break easily. 
* It has a fantastic pop and an excellent feel with no vibration at all.

**CONS**


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USSSA, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

The Voodoo is an older model. It's been discontinued and replaced by a new bat called The Goods. Both are very similar in design. The Voodoo is a heavier bat designed for larger players who want more power and distance. It's one of the better performers in that two-piece design; it's a composite handle with an alloy barrel, which means they call it a hybrid because it has both materials inside the bat (alloy and composite), giving it an enloaded feel. 

Pop: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mako

### Expert Notes
Endurance is the name of the game when it comes to Easton’s Mako bat series. Despite being discontinued in 2017, Easton Mako bats continue to sell very well in the modern market. This two-piece composite bat offers an additional jolt of pop at the plate, and its anti-vibration technology makes getting jammed a little less painful—physically, at least. The 2016 Easton Mako, in particular, has ascended into baseball bat folklore because of its neon green colorway and insane ability to demolish baseballs (although some hitters prefer the orange 2015 model, too). Considering the fantastic prices you can find Easton Mako’s listed at, it remains a top metal bat value pick.

## Marucci CAT Baseball Bat



The Marucci CAT is a bat designed for superior performance straight out of the wrapper. Engineered with a precision-balanced and ring-free barrel construction, the CAT series allows for maximum swing speed, control, and an expanded sweet spot for a more forgiving hit. From its ultra-responsive alloy to its ergonomically designed handle, every aspect of the Marucci CAT has been crafted to elevate a player's game and provide comfortable contact at the plate.

 
**Perfect bat for:** Young players looking for modern performance and extra comfort on contact. 



### Key features include: 




* **AZ105** Super Strength Aluminum Alloy:** Offers a thinner barrel wall for a higher response rate and increased durability.
* **Multi-Variable Wall Design:** Expands the sweet spot and reduces dead spots for more consistent performance across the barrel. 

**Anti-Vibration Knob:** Provides a better feel and reduces negative vibrational feedback to the hands, ensuring comfortable swings.
* **Precision-Balanced Barrel:** Results in a lower M.O.I. and balanced feel for precision and control.
* **Ring-Free Barrel Construction:** Allows for more barrel flex and increases performance without "dead" spots.
* **Micro-Perforated Soft-Touch Grip:** Enhances comfort and tack, promoting better control and reducing hand fatigue during swings.
* **One-Piece Alloy Construction:** Delivers a clean, consistent, traditional feel with built-in durability and performance.



### Top competitors comparison: [DeMarini CF](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-20/l59398) and [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403)

Compared to leading competitors like the DeMarini CF and Louisville Slugger Meta, the Marucci CAT series distinguishes itself with its one-piece alloy construction and AZ105 Super Strength Aluminum Alloy, which offers hitters a traditional, yet highly responsive feel. While the DeMarini CF is known for its two-piece composite design that emphasizes flexibility and feel, and the Louisville Slugger Meta prides itself on its three-piece composite build for balance and speed, the Marucci CAT excels in delivering direct feedback, explosive power, and a classic feel, making it a solid choice for players who appreciate the simplicity and effectiveness of alloy bats.


### Progression of the Marucci CAT series 


Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

* CAT9 and CAT9 Connect are released with the new AZR alloy for a more responsive microstructure.
* CAT9 features a 2nd Generation AV2 Anti-vibration knob and additional weight below the hands for better control.
* CAT9 Connect introduces the Outer-Locking System (OLS) for an even stiffer connection and virtually zero vibrations.

**2023 - [CATX](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-x/l175792), [CATX Connect](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-x-connect/l175804), and [CATX Composite](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-x-composite/l175805)**



* The CATX, CATX Connect, and CATX Composite represent a significant generational change.
* CATX features AZR Alloy with new barrel profiles and an ergonomic, custom-shaped tapered handle.
* CATX introduces Liquid-Gel anti-vibration technology.
* CATX Connect and CATX Composite maintain the OLS and introduce S-40 composite handle for increased performance and energy transfer.
* Barrel profiles are reshaped for better balance, with a focus on data from the Baseball Performance Lab.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This bat is one of the best options available for young players. It is USA-regulated and commonly used in little league. It offers excellent control and feel and has a large sweet spot for hitting home runs.
* I bought a new bat for my son a month ago since he had outgrown his old one. The new bat is longer and heavier, and he's happy with it. His game has improved since he started using it.
* Marucci's bat is lightweight, durable, and has an old-school sound when solid contact is made. My son has been hitting great with it.

**CONS**



* I like Marucci bats, but this is the 3rd time I've bought one that's heavier than listed. Bought a 28" 17 oz 2022 USA Cat for my 8 y/o son, but it weighed 19.3 oz. Will keep trying with Marucci, but they all tend to be heavier than listed.
* Purchased a 29” 18oz. bat, but it weighed 20.3 oz.
* I bought this product for my son and when I asked him to rate it, he gave it four stars. He explained that he didn't give it five stars because he feels too much vibration upon hits and it doesn't have the best pop.


### **Certification**: USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Marucci CAT is designed for Little League. It has that USA stamp, which means it has a lightweight feel and good control. The CAT has an affordable price point, so it won't break the bank. A lot of parents get this bat specifically because it's a quality bat with a good bang for the buck.
