Review This Batby - Jun 20, 2010
Pros: This bat is the best bat i have ever used!!!!! Great pop when u hit it and better sweet spot than usual bats. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to hit a ball in the outfield most of the time. Or who just wants to get great contact on the ball.
Cons: None.

Pros: Very light weight to generate more bat speed, My son is ten and we went down in weight and up in lenght. I got the 30" 16.5 OZ. I beleive the lighter the bat the better a kid can swing it, not to mention turn on an inside pitch. My son is left handed and can really pull this bat around, and jump on an inside pitch, and all others.
Cons: Maybe the sweet spot could have been larger, but I would rather have the light weight and smaller spot.
by Chad W - Mar 14, 2012
Pros: I bought this in a bat pack for my son with the Easton Reflex. Both bats are very good and light weight. My son is 6, 4ft tall and about 60lbs. He calls this bat "black beauty" and has been hitting the ball with no problems in practice. I'm very happy with the deal that we got for both of these bats and the free shipping got it to our door in only 3 days.
Cons: None, great bat, great price.
by amazing - Mar 24, 2012
Pros: pop is awesome i am 12 years old and when i hit the ball it feels awesome no sting i already this season hit three homers so i think you should buy it it is worth the money
Cons: none
by David - Apr 23, 2010
Pros: Very nice looking bat. My son loved his new present I gave him. He liked that it was a little lighter than his old bat. He had two nice hits in his first game with it. Hopefully more to come after those! I would definitely recommend this to any parent for their son.
Cons: None.

Pros: The bat is great. My kid, as well as his teammates, love it. It has boosted their confidence.
Cons:
by D-ROCK - Nov 01, 2010
Pros: This bat is OFF th chain. The pop in it is outrageous, and the look is great also. My 5 yr old uses the 26" by 13.5 and gets it around without a problem. It has become the teams favorite bat. I'll recomened it to anyone..
Cons: sweet spot is kind of small .So the it can take a few for kids to get used to in the beginning.
by PintoMinto - Mar 17, 2012
Pros: Super light. Allows you to teach your youth the proper swing plane and mechanics while making good contact. Builds lots of confidence and loved the sound it makes when you hit it right.
Cons: Small barrel, doesn't look intimidating to a pitcher like those 2 5/8. But it will make you focus more on accuracy rather than power. Power will come when the kids grow a little more.

Pros: huge pop!!!!!!!!
Cons: nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
by jeter - Apr 18, 2012

Cons: dented way to fast
by Dad - May 25, 2010
Pros: This bat has a lot of pop and makes a real nice "ping" when hit in the sweet spot. My son uses is all the time as well as several of his team mates.
Cons: Knob is a little small.
by - Jul 02, 2010

Pros: Excellent bat. Improved my son's swing and increased his power. Very quick delivery. Very satisfied.
Cons: None
by BPB - Sep 09, 2010
Pros: The bat is lightweight which is nice for my 7 year old. The bat is solid compared to lighter bats made for tee ball, it doesn't dent like some other bats we've had.
Cons: The barrell area is small so the sweet spot is not as large as some bats. A bit over priced for what you get in my opinion.
by - Feb 26, 2011
Pros: good bat, priced right,balanced, good pop my son loves it!
Cons: none
by - Mar 01, 2011
Pros: Very suprised when my son first hit with the bat, after having to go back to alloy after hitting a composite bat for the last two years.
Cons: None yet. Just been hit about thirty times. So far so GOOD.
by Coach Dad - Mar 26, 2012
Pros: Light.
Cons: Bad energy transfer, resulting in MAJOR "bees in the handle." My son complained first time we took BP. I had him throw me a few. Even when drilling one of the sweet spot, the handle was a stinger. Beware.
by bigD - Apr 07, 2012
Pros: this bat is great i used it in a batting cage and it had exalint pop and my dad was serprised
Cons: none
by CoachMike2005 - May 09, 2012
Pros: My son is 6 and loves this bat. For the price it is a great bat. His bat speed is great with nice sweet spot with a lot of pop. He puts it in the outfeild at the fence just about every hit. Great bat would buy again.
Cons:
by Bill - Mar 23, 2011
Pros: YB116 - 27" I have a SKINNY 7 year old who's not as strong as other on his team. This is a perfect bat for him. It is beyond light and he doesn't drag it through the zone. His bat speed has increased and he's driving the ball with much more power. He really loves this bat. I should have bought it a lot sooner. I missed a whole indoor season because I didn't want to pay the money. Big mistake!

Cons:
by zlr - May 05, 2011
Pros: Bought this bat (28/14.5)for my 6 yr old son who weighs 38 lbs. He couldnt hit one ball from the machine before he got it and last practice he only missed one. You should have seen his smile!! Only one practice but already worth it.
Cons: don't have any yet.
by big mac - Jul 06, 2010
Pros: this bat is awesome i got it right before my game and i hit a triple a single and a homerun over the fence
Cons: it could be a liitle better
by Ignacio - Jan 03, 2012
Pros: Nice looking bat, my son is 8 weighs around 60lbs and has no problem swinging it...
Cons: The only complaint is that it stings too much, if you purchase this bat make sure you son wears batting gloves... even then he may still feel a little sting.

I'm looking @ this bat & the Omaha Stiff. My son is 10 & is about 5'2" 128lbs. Which bat would you recommend?
Asked by Dave on Jan 07, 2012
Both are great bats, the omaha stiff may be a better feeling bat for your sons height and weight
· Jan 08, 2012
My son is entering the next stage of ball playing at the minors level age 8 to 10 years of age. He has a small frame, very athletic, and under 50lbs. We used a lighter ounce bat so his swinging was good from beginning to end. Also entering the season this year where the bats must be Little League Approved. I know it is printed approved on the barrel, but does that include this year. Also looks longer at the handle than the barrel. Is there another bat you could recommend? I would like to stay away from composite bats please. Thank you in advance. Jerry
Asked by Jerry on Jan 01, 2012
This is a very good all alloy bat that will have great pop. This bat is durable and will offer a large sweet spot for the player. I would also check out the Exogrid in the youth also. That bat has very good pop also.
· Jan 03, 2012
I have read a couple of comments that the sweet spot is small on this bat: is that true or more of a personal opinion? My son is a pretty strong kid with a quick swing would he lose power by using a bat this light?
Asked by Jeff on Nov 19, 2011
That is really going to just be a personal opinion. It could potentially reduce some of his power by using a lighter bat than he is use to.
· Nov 19, 2011
Is this bat good? I'm deciding between demarini voodoo and this. wich one?
Asked by Hi on Nov 06, 2011
The Omaha is a very good bat. However, based on customer feedback, the Voodoo will be a little better performing.
