### 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.

### 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.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity) 

**PROS**



* Hardly an break in period with lots of pop. I also like the color design (didn't think I would).
* Seems to be a fairly hot bat out of the wrapper. Probably about 300 hits in on it. 
* My son’s first at bat with this new bat was a homerun over the fence at 11 years old!!

**CONS**



* I purchased this bat a month or two ago and absolutely loved it. It has great pop and swings lightly. However, today, after only about 350 swings during normal batting practice, the bat telescoped, which is quite ridiculous as I have only heard of telescoping occurring after tapping the bat on the ground.
* Makes a weird rattling noise every time it touches the ground or hits the ball. Overall poor quality.
* I had this bat for a few weeks before it snapped in half at the handle.

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Zoa is a two piece composite. Very good bat. It has a little bit of an end loaded feel to it. The Zoa glitch is the Zoa with a flashy new paint job. For around $50 more, you can get this special color. They survey the kids each year and ask, "What's your favorite color"? It doesn't make the bat perform any better. But you know a lot of it is fashion.
