DeMarini CF Baseball Bats
DeMarini's CF baseball bat is available in USA, USSSA, and BBCOR versions, designed for players who want a balance of power and control. Its lightweight, two-piece composite construction enhances swing speed, and the Paraflex Plus Composite Barrel offers a large sweet spot for consistent contact. The 3-Fusion End Cap further boosts this sweet spot, providing explosive pop with every swing, helping hitters enhance their skills.
Key features include:
| Paraflex Plus Composite Barrel | Engineered for consistent and responsive performance across a wide hitting area, enhancing pop and feel. |
| 3Fusion Connection | Reduces vibration and redirects energy back into the barrel, improving performance and comfort. |
| ReAction End Cap | Increases barrel performance without compromising swing speed, optimizing the overall balance of the bat. |
| Two-Piece Construction | Delivers a nice flex at contact, creating a whip effect that drives the ball with more force. |

| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| My kid hit his first-ever home run with this bat. |
| Break it in right and the CF will preform. It’s forgiving on mis-hits too! |
| We broke it in with tee hits, and my son hit missiles and balls over the fence on the first day. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Disappointing mid-season pop-up infield hits. I've always used Easton before, won't try other brands again. |
| Great pop, but poor performance when missing sweet spot. Treated with care, but still cracked in. |
| My son's bat barrel cracked, leaving him without a bat during playoffs. |
The DeMarini CF is a classic model that goes back to 2015 and offers one of the hottest models (2017) but is limited in use as its performance surpasses bat standards. Overall, the CF has a classic design which has been the same since 2015. A two-piece composite that offers a large barrel and sweet spot with a lightweight handle that creates a whip-like feel to it with the flexible connection between the handle and barrel.
