    Some of the other marucci bats in early Bbcor (Black, Black 2, elite) were awesome. Personally thought they were way better than some of the cats. You need to find some and try them out! I still the OG black and it’s still pretty hot after 5+ seasons.

  • @Tevatron044
    @Tevatron044 2 роки тому +13

    Dude marucci has kept the same exact design with minor MINOR variations of swing weight. The only difference has been the ringless restrictor which honestly is not a big difference. The main difference is a few grams of swing weight because they've done different shapes for their restrictors
    I saw a kid using a cat 9 32" and he wanted a 33". I told him to get an older Cat and he actually thinks it's better but it's the same thing
    Marucci didn't have a metal bat before so they bought a company called Albin Athletics, who pioneered the vibration dampening system in the knobs. If you use an old Albin Athletics besr bat, you can see the traits of a Marucci Cat 5 in there

    Suggestion for bat scale: since there are a lot of bats tied on score make exit velocity the tie breaker. For instance there are 10 bats with a 22 score and the String King Metal 2 is ranked towards the bottom of those yet has the 5th highest exit velo of all bats. Thanks

    Another great fun video. Forget Lizard skins try out Vuk Grips nice and thin very very grippy you wont need any tar or anything else with it and reusable if need be. The batting gloves are great but only for a few BP sessions and games the grippy material on the gloves doesn't hold up the bat grips do though.

    Sure, the Cat 9 composite is light-swiming, but if its light swing weight is the only real positive about the bat then you may as well add a Cheeto to the lineup for exit velo testing. Those are also light-swinging.
