Speed

### Expert Notes
Speed is indeed the name of the game for one of Easton’s flagship alloy bat series. The most recent 2022 Easton Speed bat has a one-piece composite construction, and
features the company’s Hyperlite material, which makes for an astonishingly fast swing. And while this release is beloved by us and others, many hitters have told me that
nothing beats the 2019 Easton Speed release, which became famous for its green handle, black barrel, and outstanding production at every level and age group. Regardless of which model you use, one thing is clear: hitters craft a special connection with their Easton Speed bats. Swinging a Speed might be all you need to accelerate your game.

CAT9 Composite

## Marucci CAT9 Composite Baseball Bat

The Marucci CAT 9 Composite bat represents a significant advancement in Marucci's approach to building bats for players who prefer the feel and performance of fully composite construction. Unlike its alloy counterparts within the CAT series, the CAT 9 Composite provides a massive barrel and balanced swing. With a philosophy deeply rooted in the insights and needs of actual players, Marucci’s Cat 9 Composite bat showcases the brand’s proficiency at using cutting-edge materials to elevate the performance of players at any age.

**Perfect bat for:** Both contact and power hitters who don’t mind a barrel-heavy bat.


### Key features include:



* **Multi-Directional Composite Material:** Creates an ultra-responsive barrel that offers a significant performance advantage across the entire hitting surface.
* **Maximum Barrel Length:** Provides a larger sweet spot and enhances the potential for off-center hits to still travel far and fast.
* **SDX LT Connection:** Reduces vibration on contact, delivering a more comfortable hitting experience without sacrificing power on swing-through.
* **Ring-Free Barrel Construction:** Eliminates dead spots for a more consistent performance and allows players to take full advantage of the bat's technical design.
* **Micro-Perforated Soft-Touch Grip:** Ensures comfortable, secure handling even in rigorous play conditions, reducing hand fatigue and enhancing control.
* **Balanced Swing Weight:** Optimizes bat speed and control, offering a perfect blend for hitters who value precision as much as power.


### Top competitors comparison: [DeMarini CF Zen](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-zen-2020/l8432) and the [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709)

The Marucci Cat 9 Composite shines with its use of multi-directional composite materials, enabling a level of responsiveness and barrel performance that's hard to match. While the DeMarini CF Zen is praised for its consistently strong performance across the barrel and the Easton ADV 360 offers revolutionary 360-degree barrel tuning, the Cat 9 Composite distinguishes itself with a superior balance between speed, power, and comfort, courtesy of its meticulous engineering and vibration-dampening connection technology. This makes the Cat 9 Composite a top choice for youth players aiming to elevate their game with a bat that delivers fluidity and force in equal measure.

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The CAT9 Composite comes in two designs across two generations. The first, released in 2021, is gray, black, and red. And then it came out in red, white, blue, and gray. The first model was a more powerful, higher-performing bat. It has more exit velocity and is a hotter bat than the 2nd gen. Very durable, with very little breakage. Marucci's, across the board, have been good bats in terms of quality; they seem to last. Whether you're a power hitter or a small kid, the CAT9 Composite does very well.
