What up guys. So, DeMarini changed their online copy/messaging a couple weeks ago in response to the video. Previously, they had specifically stated that the '25 Zen barrel was their "largest-ever barrel profile". Semantics, I know, but I figured I'd call it out because y'all brought it up.

Thanks!

[@nukeboys4080]

Awesome video! Excited to see more, glad y’all are back making them!

[@batdigest]

Thanks yo. We back. And got some fire power too. Hahah.

[@theyluvh3id1]

can you do easton hype fire next? maybe on a field outside so i can really see how good it is if you can

[@batdigest]

On it. Not sure we'll get it outside, but we'll have some hittrax video of it here shortly. Should be fun...

[@theyluvh3id1]

@@batdigest ok thanks so much

[@Elitemagic23alltheway]

I love that new bat I wish I had it

[@batdigest]

It's pretty. You should get it.

[@Elitemagic23alltheway]

I can’t I wish we had that money tho

[@tit0783]

Just a question how come you are swinging the -10?

[@batdigest]

We think all USSSA bats are made for kids. So there's no difference in an adult swinging a drop 5, 8, 10 or 11. All for kids. We'll hit the drop 5s at some point too.

[@FlynnAndThaneShow]

Where can I buy the bat size rings?

[@batdigest]

Not sure. We have them in our bat lab and have been using them for years. Mizuno sent us some many moons ago.

[@theyluvh3id1]

Did you like you own comment 🤣

[@TheNexGenPodcast]

Nice review 👍🏼

[@WillfFureey-xc1gr]

Just saying somebody his size has no business reviewing a -10

[@batdigest]

I get where you're coming from, but let’s be real-these are all kids’ bats, even the drop 5. So comparing a drop 5 to a drop 10 is like comparing apples to slightly bigger apples. Same orchard!
