I loved how you managed to beak a batt in one filming session from like out of the wrapper to unsafe to use.
I haven't gone to a tournament without seeing these two bats! I just love these videos, you've helped me so much with choosing a bat!

Right
FR same
Me to bro I was contemplating if I should get the 2024 icon 2024 hype or 2024 catx composite
New subscriber here. Thanks for including these young men on your channel. It really gives us dads a good point of reference. Much appreciated.
Talk about durability, my son just played his last 13u tournament and has swung the Marucci Cat 9 Comp, 31 drop 5 from his Spring season of 12u through the Spring season of 13u. Not one crack , seam, or rattle. IMO, the best USSSA comp bat out there. Plus, 2 other kids on the team also used it. FYI, he hit 19 tanks with it, lol.
The -5 Fire is the definition of a glass cannon
As someone who played baseball growing up I would LOVE to see if you could find the skinny barrel combat B1 “da bomb” or the blue B2 and review those for some of this newer gen kids who might not be familiar with them. That was next level pop. Or even like the TPX tritons or the Catalyst. Would be interesting to see that exit velo and distance! Love the vids.
Those combats were ridiculous. They were made in Caledonia, Minnesota and their only travel team for any age when I was playing I think it was 13u and 14u they won state back to back and they had illegal bats that were re-wrapped to look like the B2. I think Combats owner was the head coach or atleast one of his kids was on the team and supplied it. But ngl the normal B2 was insane so no one really suspected it we just thought they were cracked but whoever they played in the championship asked for them to be studied and they were way different
The Blue B2 was unbelievable. I hit some bombs in little league with that thing that still haven't landed yet.
Hey will my name is Daniel and I am going into my 13u season and I play third base and sometimes shortstop, I was wondering if we could review a 2024 usssa bat like what you are going to do in the next part with some 7th graders. I am also going into the 7th grade and I think that would be perfect. I hope this gets to you Will, and have a great day.❤
Good luck kid
I would post a video of you swinging and taking bp or whatever, review some of the bats u already have, something to get their attention
Good luck kid
Love the energy and encouragement the boys have each other!
Dude thank you 🙏
I think it needs to be said that with the professionalism and seriousness in which you do your business, I don't think you need to make disclaimers about "being serious" about your exit velos and distance computed by the Rapsodo/HitTrax. If casual people who don't follow the channel want to think that something's "off" or "funny", let them. People who follow the channel know that you're giving it a square, honest effort and what is produced in velo/distance is the real deal as best as the tools allow to be measured. That said, I really appreciate the words and expertise on display. The knowledge of bats and companies is fantastic to see. Much respect.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Day 1 of asking for a new bat from the bat bros
a big leauger swinging this would be crazy
@@foxydogeeven with a perfect barrel it would still break
@@foxydoge ik
@@foxydoge they could also just buy a bunch of bats and give it to him lol
To be honest it would take atleast 10-20 swings atleast, will can take a whole round of Bp with it and obviously he doesn’t swing as hard but it wouldn’t be a crazy difference, he literally hit a ball close to 110 with a wood bat and one the hardest ball this year was 120 in the mlb, and the guy who did that is a monster
Bring Adley back out
Hey , I am getting a bat but im trying to decide between cat x connect or cat x composite. 13u going to 14u drop 5
? any suggestions
This video is taking me back to when i was in 7th grade swinging a yellow easton xl1 drop 5
In the off season we need Adley to try to hit a 1000 foot home run with the hype lol
One swing and it’s busted!
@@davidmatuschke4721 yeah they’d need a bat per swing lol
We need adley to swing an old school bat
My son coaches 10-12 year old boys and they watch your videos (parents also) at practice. Your videos are both entertaining to the kids and informative to the parents. They say "to imitate is to compliment". So know this, you all are being copied and imitated around the country (well at least by these boys in Alliance here). Your doing a good thing and having fun at the same time, I really hope the best for you Will and the Bros. Rock on 🤘😎
PS...I retire at end of year and will be ready to start driving your tour bus 😂 👍
Appreciate you bro 💯
Can you do a comparison of the old vs. DeMarini D243 Composite? They increased the price from $150 to $250. Could be a good comparison since it’s been s few years since they came out in 2018!
would love to get a collab with you and the slow mo guys and see all the bat/ball compression!
What are you using to measure the exit velo and distance?
What happened to the Demarini gattica, the one with the grooves in the barrel and the weird knob?
we NEED a part two of trying to break a world record in colorado
We’re gonna get one, just don’t know when
Really love ur guy's vids they r super fire and I'm looking into a new bat for highscool and ur vuds r helping me with the decision
I'm really stuck on the fence on the catx or the bonesaber hybrid
I also own both -5 bats.
Hype Fire
Short break in time
Decent sweet spot (took about 10-15 cuts to get used to)
Higher exit velo
Comfortable knob for palm
Durability concerns (none currently)
Swings like a balanced XL1
Hotter than all XL1s (I own them all) and Green Zen
Doesn't come in 33" (Cat X and Zens do)
Balanced XL1 is the best way to describe it forsure
I swung the hype fire but I game a yellow xl1 I think the xl1 blows it out the water
The hype fire is nuts Marucci just dropped the new F5.I would love to see a comparison vid between last years and 2024
Swing weight differences? Thanks guys!
When you talk a third of a season, are these game swings only? Or is that if you practice with it too?
What pitching machine is used in the video? I would love to buy one of those for our youth teams.
How fast do u set the pitching machine?
can you guys review the 2024 voodoo one
interested to see the durability on the bat
In the market for a new -8 USSSA and this video was insightful. Any news on a new paint job for CatX? Just broke the knob off the Cat9 Pastime (2 seasons) and need a replacement but will wait a month if a cool color scheme is coming out.
yeah the catx vanta is a cool color scheme
I love your videos they are so enjoyable
My 8 yr old swung the drop 10 CatX all spring and loved it. Making the switch to a drop 10 Hype Fire right now for the fall. Both really good bats.
How did he like the fire? Trying to choose for my son between the 2
absolutely loves it@@burnsz7
Same here. One of his teammates had the hype fire and they both hit really well. I recommend the cat x for 8u for durability
Which bat would u guys recommend for high school baseball
Really cool to see these young men testing the bats.
When is the best time to buy a new bat I want to buy the cat x but I don’t want another better one to come out after I get it
I want to try the atlas but there isn’t a bat demo place near me what should I do
We are currently shopping for a new bat, my 12 year old is 6'1 and 180 lbs. We are leaning toward a drop 5 mainly thinking we could get 2 seasons out of it as he will be entering u15 next year. But hes absolutely banging balls. You had him wanting the bonesaber hybrid but it doesnt come in a 32/33 drop 5. Is their any other bat you could suggest? We are positive he would destroy the hype fire immediately.
Have you seen the 2024 demarini voodoo one piece it’s out and have you swing it yet?
I’ve been swinging an atlas bbcor really good and bought an icon. It just didn’t seem good for me. I’m wondering if I should get a catx connect, Warstic hybrid, or select power. I like the hybrid feel with more barrel.
Connect is really good
You should keep swinging the Atlas if you like it! Next up I’d pick the Bonesaber Hybrid
@@baseballbatbros just prefer the weighting on the atlas
Your videos are my favorite part of my day
How fast is the pitching machine going?
What's the name of the pitching machine you were using?
You should just make a video, compiling every single bat breaking moment in the history of the channel.
Another great job on the bats Will.🤩🤩
I'm just hoping the regulation doesn't come crashing down on it because it is HOT. I used it after it had a major crack running down the barrel from a guy using it and it still hit a ball about 10 mph faster than my usual with a wood bat. A fully broken in hype fire is legit scary to watch. I can't wait to get one for myself and cut it open lol
Hey will what bat do u think is better catx or cat9
Do you have a link to the iPad tripod?
My 8u player hits 61mph exit velo with a catx alloy 29” drop 10 about to head to 9u and was buying a 30” drop 10 hype cause he swung the 29” one and it swings lighter than the X. So getting him the 30” I hope keeps the timing the same because he was so out front on the 29”.
Why not go to a -8 than a longer bat?
@@jonasguarino5468 I thought about that as well. Was just listening to his hitting coach. Kinda hoping for hr longer bay gets my kid to back off the plate a little, he got pegged 3 times in this last tournament.
this is hard to find on the internet but would this bat be okay for softball too?
That paint job is so fire
U guys should do the Easton ghost from 2018 against the hype fire
What about the drop tens is there any difference in them then the drop each other than the weight
Please do the 5150. I like the 2017 model and kinda want to buy the 2023/24 model
Hey I commented a couple days ago wondering if you can do the green zen vs the hype fire please
If I want to play the bat the next few years which should I pick?
Its now 2 years ago you did the Demarini Corndog, review it again!
Did you guys move to Central Oregon, or just hang out there a lot?
how is the -8 more durable? Obviously not an expert when it comes to bats, but it seems if the -8 is lighter for the same length, they would have to remove weight somewhere and that would compromise durability??
Would love to see the Easton hype Fire vs the Green Zen
I live and play baseball in Belgium. We're only allowed to swing drop 3. Never even swung something different, is there an advantage to drop 8 or other things?
These bats have a crazy trampoline effect and are mainly used in "travel" ball here in the states.
You don't have to be a decent hitter to hit line drives or gappers with these bats. As long as you place the barrel in front of the ball, it will travel.
Wait can you use the drop 5 usa cat x?
Y’all are so inspiring keep it up
Would love to do something like this with you guys but I live no where near you guys, bet I could hit 100 with the hype or something
The cat x is lighter and has better feel but the hype has more pop and barrel feel and hype takes exit velocity by a little so overall hype wins
Is there much of a difference between drop 10 and drop 8? Does the 2 oz make a difference in terms of pop?
Drop 8s have a bigger barrel
Is there any word on the durability issues being fixed on the 2024 voodoo one
It will be 2025 before it releases
Can you use the cat 10 USA?
Dansby Swanson ?
Do 7th graders use -8's? I was on a -3 early BBCOR tech at that point.
What size bat do you use
Can anyone say if the new white icon is hitter then the hype fire ??
For 500k subscribers you guys should do custom Baseball Bat Bros jerseys, Jordans & finally Collab with Marucci, Easton or Louisville Slugger for a much needed BBB edition wood and metal bats!
Need to see this battle the Cat 9 comp
IVE BEEN ASKING FOR THIS FIR DAYS DUDE,IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ONE TO BUT
What app/hardware are you using to measure seeing speed and ball distance?
Rapsodo 3.0
I’m gonna need you guys to do a review on the 2024 voodoo the instant it comes out please I would pay to see that video
What is the most durable one piece bat with the most pop for usssa
Are these used for slowpitch?? Just wondering
Got a question what is the difference between the hype and the hype fyre
You guys should do a review of the new tucci bbcor bats
I’m 13 going into 8th grade, 5’7 135lbs what bat should I get
What is this Cat X Vanta that is coming out?
Anyone compare the catx connect and composite in a drop 8. Trying to decide between the two for my 11 year old.
Once broken in sufficiently, the CatX Comp will be noticeably hotter.
everything i read and watch favors the composite. However my 11 yr old son has both and used both over the last couple months and he has performed better with the connect. Me personally i like it better also just from the sound standpoint, the comp has a thud sound to it and the alloy connect has the nice loud sound to it when you hit. he says when he hits it right on the right spot on the barrel the connect launches the ball better than the composite. he has since gone with the connect in games and used the comp in lessons and practices. if you could afford both i suggest try both and see what he does better with. everyone has different preferences.
I have a questions I’m about to be 15 and I have a 32 meta that died so I was wondering if I should get something light in a 32 voodoo,atlas or if I should get something endloaded in a 31 goods, guardian??
32 bonesaber hybrid imo
How tall are you and how much do you weigh?
If you're playing HS ball, tbh I would just recommend going with a 33 unless you're going to be pretty short when you're older. Junior/Senior year you'll really feel the 32 is too small.
@@bigidiot1976 well I’m 115 and 5”6
I was playing a tournament today and my friend on my team hit a home run with hype fire drop ten brand new
Hey Baseball Bat Bros BIG FAN I was wondering what drop bat do you use for 13u players?
-8
I love your channel so much
Day 3 of asking- I have a 2018 Easton Beast X Speed, which I got from Play It Again for $50. It seams to have lots of pop, it would be really cool if y’all use it in a video/short.
I love this because my travel baseball teams main USA bat are these two
Thanks this helped a lot
Can you review the buster posey marucci maple wood bat
I just want to know what is so important about exit velo
It would be nice to see someone who can actually hit try these bats. This guy is all "I'm MLB" with his stance and you can tell he wants a call-up.
nice love your channel just got demire zoa
I’m going into 13u and was wondering what’s better the cat9 comp or catX comp
Cat x bro
Cat 9
Crazy one kid's getting 20+ MPH more ExVe than the other and he looks like he's check swinging every time! 😲
Yeah both of those kids have terrible mechanics
We need some more wood bat reviews please 🙏🙏😘
should i get the goods or voodoo 2022 or 2023?
Who uses drop 5s besides little leaguers? When i played ball you had to use drop 3s
