2024 USSSA Composite Bat Showdown | Baseball Bat Bros

- Today we're going to crown a new KING OF USSSA.
Keep in mind that composite USSSA bats are typically much hotter than alloy USSSA bats (while this isn't necessarily the case for BBCOR or USA bats).

UPDATE: As of 4/8/24, Perfect Game has officially suspended the Easton Hype Fire -5 from all PG events.
The -5 Hype Fire will still remain legal & certified for all non-PG travel-ball games/tournaments.
icon rise uppp
catx comp might be the move too
It’s your guys fault you got it suspended 😂
You got the hype fire -5 banned in PG
They 100% banned it because is this channel.
I have a spreadsheet I downloaded from a physics professor at the University of Illinois. 120 mph @ 31.5^ launch is 520' at Bend Elks Baseball Club (EL 3709). That's with no wind. A 5 mph wind kicks it up to about 547. Humidity and barometric pressure also play a small role. Depending on if you had any breeze that night, I'd say the 555 is absolutely legit. And that's this old engineer/baseball coach's contribution to this commentary.
+Backspin gets you to 555
Honestly I think it’s father because this is still the same man who almost broke the most confusing record of all at time 😂 and yet again in this video hes using juiced usssa bats the pop is insane. In his other video he measured out 582 ft hit a home run 581 ft with the same bat 😂
Would have known without you
That 555 was totally legit holy smokes. What a shot. That's a triple deck HR at Citi Field, out of the stadium in many parks. That's easy 600ft+ at the place you hit the 582. Now way that bat should be legal lol. I'd stash as many as possible Will. I wanna see Stanton or Alonso swing that bat lmao
this bat would be nuclear in their hands
They’d break the bat in 5 swings🤣
@@jacobtamsula7501 but those five swings would be glorious.
Easton needs to make a 35 inch version and give it to Judge!
that's outta citi field, that more of a 3rd deck rangers stadium type shot
Ok 555 is crazy I think it is real
Facts he beat or tied the longest homer run record with it. Plus the other indicators all line up and make sense. I believe it as well that shit was launched
Hype Fire moving towards LEGENDARY status. Decade from now when Will is doing senior softball bat reviews, he will be saying; "Back in the day" there was this bat called the Hype Fire. I can hear it now 🤣. Rock on BBB's 🤘😎
Dude is taking off swings with the other bats. With the hype fire he’s dropping to a knee every time all the other bats he stays standing.
The battle for 2nd place 🙏💪💪
💀
fr lol
😂💀
Eh… more like 3rd, we already know the icon is second
We already know who won before watching
True
Who
Fr though
@@2AMSteezyhype fire lol
Hype fire is the hottest, but which bat has both durability and the pop? I'm going Cat X or Rawlings Icon.
Greetings. We appreciate that you always keep us informed with the latest in bat technology. At my son Salvador's baseball school they always comment on your videos, they all make reference to which is better based on the analysis that you give them. Salvador admires your channel, he is 10 years old, we are from Venezuela. We wish we could have a Hype Fire bat for the team, it is very expensive for us to obtain one. Thank you in the same way, a hug.
All the best TH-cam videos in history come from the baseball bat brose😎
Fr though
I think that bomb you hit really did clear the building lol
Pulled the trigger on a BrokeFire for my kid.... Thank you for all the review man! Enjoy the content!
The hypefire is just on another level⚾️
Icon is better
Yup
8:10 Holy Dinger Will
I just have to say, IMHO, thanks for not being cocky "jocks"... Lol. I played baseball back in my day, love it to this day. This is entertaining stuff guys! Love it!
You gotta get a giancarlo stanton collab, prob gonna hit 700 ft with a hype fire.
Yes bro or just a big league power hitter in general like judge, Olson, whoever
@@loganlawrence7351 even kyle schwarber
stanton is the strongest in the mlb
When Will tossed the Hype Fire and Icon at the end, the Hype Fire shattered 😂 it is the perfect manufacturer’s bat! Like a drug! Once your kid swings one, he can’t go back! Buy, swing, break, buy, swing, break… hit me bro. And the drop off to BBCOR and bigger fields going to ruin some kids.
We hated the hype fire. Sold it after a few weeks. And love the Icon
In a drop 10 not 5
I purposely removed my sons 32 drop 8 CATX Composite from his backpack after watching this video yesterday and replaced it with his 33' drop 5 2024 Zoa. He had the Zoa since Christmas but loves the feel of the CATX Composite. We went to cages yesterday and he was forced to swing the Zoa, well he broke it. The Zoa had a higher velocity than the CATX but the CAT is much more durable because he has hundreds of swings with it in the cages with pitching machines.
Can somebody help me select a bat that swings like a 32 drop 5 HypeFire so that he can use it in the cages? I buy from JustBats, the Zoa 32 drop 5, I purchased does not have a warranty because it was discounted from JustBats (used).
*The CATX composite I purchased was well used from a friend. I must say, it is very durable.
Take care guys, thanks for doing what you do.
Easton Encore Hybrid -5!
I swing the Rawlings icon 2024 in game. Great vid
Same here
Best bat in usssa
Definitely
Love these USSSA tank videos
Fr🔥
Do a 2024 alloy usssa showdown
Bro… talk about dialed in. I totally believe the 555’. I always figure about 4’ per mph for a softball, so for a baseball it’s 100% plausible. Amazing man!
I refuse to believe this CAT X hate.
Fr.
I love watching your videos they help my swing right for a baseball game
Lmaoooo thanks to this video, Will got Hype -5 banned from PG 😅😂
Thank you for this. As a dad/coach and obsession with bats this video summed it up. Already have 24 ICON and Hype. Oh yeah I have 2 boys so do the math. I did buy the 23 Encore but its still in its wrapper. I think we are ready for ball. Now what to do about USA. Any way to do a USA video. Keep up the great work
Id like to see this same video AFTER a full break in. Obviously the Hypefire can just sit in the corner during the process and still destroy.
I fully broke in a Cat X comp and it is hot with a very nice sweet spot and hasnt broke down like hypes
I’m on two bats in but that Zoa seems like it has unlimited sweet spot. It just seems to hit different in a good way. Seems like a do all bat.
How much performance are we leaving on the table by going to a -5 select power or Nox...or even a good 1piece Atlas or CatX?
Can you do Usssa metal as well? Live in colder weather so like to use those instead of composite until mid May
I had 2 game bats. The bats are the 2021 demarini zoa 32" -8 and the new rawlings icon 31" -5 I broke my icon in one torment. What bat should I get now???????????
These videos are super dope and informative!! Appreciate it!! Helps when dropping 4bills on a bat!!!
I’ve been waiting for this for over a year lol
fr
the swing onto one knee tank is insane 😂
Yup and only does that with the hype fire. Icon is def hotter
have you guys swing the tucci bats? what do you think abt them?
Will please do a video on the goods 2024 vs the 2022 version apparently I have heard that the 2022 and 2021 are better please test that
Thanks will
You're vids make me miss the NCAA baseball video game. Love the sound of metal and composite bats.
My son has the hype fire and the Rawlings Icon. Hey Will a sleeper bat in USSSA that hits nukes and is an alloy bat is the Easton Alpha ALX. It’s loud but it’s hot. Those are the three bats he rocks.
I like how he casually just smokes balls with no reaction😂
Let me just tell you will you are my favorite person on TH-cam help so much in my life and helping me with baseball desitions
Hey Will, I've been swinging the bonesaber one piece and like it a bunch, are there any wood bats that you would consider similar? Also damn 555 is crazy.
I keep watching this video over and over again and the two balls you hit with the hype fire that traveled over 500’ both appear to have hit their apex beyond the left field fence. Those two bombs you hit seemed to be still traveling up after it was over the fence.
Is your max exit velocity more than 10 mph+ higher than your highest exit velocity with a wood bat?
That’s an awesome video. Informative and fun to watch. Thanks, killer content
that Hype Fire is going to blow up in about 20 more swings
What degrees cold are we saying to use the Encore lower then 60 degrees? 50? And is that purely cause the bat don’t perform at colder temps? Or it’s more fragile?
Before you hit that tank shot I was thinking to myself if you have ever hit a ball 500 feet at sea level or close to it. 31.5 degree launch angle at 120 mph will go over 500’ with a wood bat in the right conditions. I believe you might be able to hit one 600’ at a higher elevation like Coors Field or even better the pro baseball stadium in Mexico City which is over 7200’ above sea level.
You have a great swing and I wanted to know how far someone like Aaron Judge or Giancarlo Stanton would hit a ball with the hype fire. Do you think someone like Stanton or Judge would shatter the bat?
Love the usssa showdown. I would love to see you review the usssa bonesaber hybrid
My 9 year old hit his first 2 home runs with the drop 10 Hype Fire- unbelievable bat. He uses the Select PWR as his practice bat.
Bro you had some crazy fking launches in this video.. I've been bingeing because it's been awhile. This.. though.. you were crushing it. Or the bats were!
I found an older composite bat that swings amazing and has tons of barrel and pop: Adidas Aeroburner BBCOR
How close is the cat 9 comp to this group of bats?
We need a green zen -5 Vs Hype Fire -5 video. I have a debate going on which one is better.
3 way battle -5 Green Zen, -5 XL1 Carrotstick, and -5 Hype Fire.
Spoiler alert, it's the Hype. It's 1 of 2 hottest bats ever created. The Gorilla Era Reflex might be hotter in the hands of someone who's HUGE like Stanton/Judge etc but overall the Hype is the hottest bat of all time.
@@AaronReadingYothat’s my thought but the other dad feels different.
@@jonathanevans3087 It's all about how they're built. The older gorilla bats were super duper durable, and made to be as hot as they could for metal. These new USSSA bats are clearly not anywhere near as durable, but the trampoline you get from things like the Hype are just better than anything, but WAY less durable. Also the Green Zen is amazing but it's been improved on by now.
That store should have air raid sirens that go off when Will is swinging a hype fire. Good Lord man. Crushed that thing.
To me the Hype Fire is the baseball equivalent of the early Monsta ASA bats in the slow pitch world. Heads and tails above the competition that will change the way other manufacturers do their bats as well.
Those OG Freaks were crazy.
This is the video ive been waiting for, thank you will, now you gotta do best composite bat of all time, xl1, green zen, hype fire, z2k, all of them
I promise you the hype fire will beat all of those by a lot
@@dr9306 i know but it would be awesome to see that video
Hey Will another great video as always! I was wondering, what cameras do you use for your different angles? I was thinking of getting into similar type videos as yours doing bat reviews and home run derby’s. I uploaded my first video trying to hit a 330 foot home run the quality got messed up on the video though and I’m trying to figure out why because normally the quality on my phone does just fine, but I wanted to get some other angles too. It would be great if I could get some feedback on the video, the channel is WeeklyBaseballClips. Thanks!
If the hype fire stays legal you're going to completely run out of money just on baseballs. Easton needs to calm down in USSSA and focus on BBcor.
Which is better zoa or catx! What a show down for 2nd
Time to do another run at the distance record! 555 was on point!
What is the hit tracking app/device that you use with the iPad?
I get what you mean about “too durable” as a usssa aged kid, I used a meta the week after I bought it, and of course hit a ground rule double, now that it’s broken in that ball would’ve been long gone, I’m goanna use my teammates icon now, I took one swing off a machine and hit it at a speed that’s average for someone two years older than me
You should come here in pittsfield on may 31st at Wahconah Park cause i'll be there for my Babe Ruth night game, maybe a video or somethin?
*this is something that was on the top of my head for a while. you dont have to come, but if you do, it will be amazing, thanks
3 games this weekend, predicted weather of 50°.... Ok to swing Hype Fire -8??
Yup
I have a cat x and totally agree with what he said on how it is so hard to break in. I have probably put at least a 1000 swings on it and I have yet to get a perfect perfect
Sounds like a good bat to let a kid grow into.
My 12u kid has the Icon. He hit 2 home runs in a game last weekend.
The hype fire reminds me of the TPX Catalyst from around 2007-2010. Bat was stupid hot, but broke every other at bat.
One question, is it available hype fire in 34 or 35 in?
You're gonna get the hype fire outlawed I might buy one just to mess around with trying to pick up a new hobby and I love BP
The drop 5 hyper fire was banned as of yesterday in perfect games just so you know still keep us the great content
You should do a video with the hype fire where you just try to go for max exit velo, 125mph+??
There needs to be a new sign at bend elks stadium saying “ home of the bat bros”. Could imagine walking into the grocery outlet store watching that 555 ft shot clear the building. Automatically thinking “bat bro wills swinging the hype fire again “
That Easton Hype Fire is FIRE!! I’d love to see Eric Sim swing that bat on that field.
Trash
8:15 DAWG THATS WHY I LOVE MY HYPE FIRE
you guys are awesome!
As a freshman in highschool I need help hitting the ball harder. What can I do? I swing a 32 29 icon I'm 5'7 155
There is no Hype with the Hypefire. It is just straight 🔥.
After watching kids hit balls all through the winter, I really think the 2024 DM The Goods USSSA bat is the most slept on. Would love to see a hybrid/metal bat showdown for the 2024 lineup
I have a Question… my kid has 12 and he is gonna star play travel ball.. what bat can he use in travel ball BBCOR - USA or USSSA.. thanks we love your videos
Do the drop ten bats perform the same ? I got a bunch of 10U kids looking to purchase new bats and trying to steer them in the right directions
Should’ve finished the video before asking lol
Does anyone know is the new black bonesaber 2 piece is a repaint?
u should try the 2022 limited edition blue gold meta louieville slugger pls!
if you have it its not sold anymore
I swing a drop 8 in catx composit in 12u the sweat spot is perfect I have 5 home runs in 3 game
I'm from the Uk. Like these vids. But know nothing about baseball. However has anyone ever made an aro bat. It would have a tear drop shape. So you could only hit with one face. But I reckon if it was done right you'd beat records with it. With the increased speed. And velocity.
Easton Ghost whiteout -5. GOTTA SEE IT!!!
Question about the ICON... you mentioned they have made it more durable. Anyway to know if one off the rack at the store is the more durable version?
That’s my question as well. Any change to their product code we can check?
I'd love to see you take two of the same bat, one out of the wrapper and one that you sent away to have "rolled" and see if there is a difference.
I guarantee you hit that well over 500. That was a perfection swing and contact man. You have power for sure.
Too bad about the Dirty South Bravo. Not much out there for reviews. I was looking forward to seeing how it did.
What radar kit/software are you using?
That 555 footer might be legit, that ball stayed in the air so damn long. 120 exit velo too
HYPE FIRE ALL DAY
just calculated it off statcast for your 120 exit velo and 31.5 launch angle and went full nerd and guess what the math ends up being IFFF those numbers are correct... may want to sit down lol
Well? Care to share with the class?
@@LeramieCrumpno of course not, cuz he’s probably lying
@@RealBrizz was actually hanging out with my sister, parents and other family who came in town to visit for easter, so you and that negativity can take a 546 to 557ft walk realjizz... depending on the wind of course and a few other uncontrollable variables! either way, longggg ass walk jizz...
P.S. had to edit the numbers, nothing else, had 536-547 and was supposed to be 546-557ft
@@LeramieCrump depending on some uncontrollable factors, if they werent misreads, 546 to 557ft... there hasnt been a velo and launch angle even remotely close to that in the MLB since the statcast era lol
wish he gave us the wind speed/direction lol his usual google earth start stop... coulda got it dialed in wayyyy closer than the 11ft margin of error
🔥🔥🔥
how fast are you pitching the baseballs
What do you think of the catx smart bat
This right here is what we need to get people back into baseball, screw wood bats, I want to see Aaron Judge on juice, swinging a 34 inch hype fire
If mlb players got little league bats eveything would be home runs but you do have a point it’s fun to see 525 dead center.
They’d have to rebuild all the stadiums.
Someone’s gonna die😂
Green zen vs hype fire vs icon vs cat 9 comp vs XL1
Have you ever made a video with the Easton Omen? That was my favorite bat growing up.
My son has a CatX 30in -8 Composite and is now trying to get me to buy him an Icon based off this video. At 12-years-old, is there going to be a significant difference in performance?
What is the longest USSSA baseball bat they make in 2024. When i look on websites I never see any 34” and very few 33”. Could you imagine if they made a 35” like I used to swing a 35-32 Easton Black Magic and I’m 6’6 235 lbs. With faster pitchers throwing high 80s low 90s I would swing the Easton CCORE that I believe was a 34-30 and in Legion travel ball i hit one close to 475’
I said to myself 500 plus as soon as that ball was tattooed. WoW 🔥🔥🔥
