### Top competitors comparison: The [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton Maxum](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/maxum-ultra/l165626)

  

Compared to competitors like the Louisville Slugger Meta and the Easton Maxum, DeMarini The Goods differentiates itself with its focused design on maximizing power. While the Meta is known for its balanced swing and the Maxum for its extended barrel, The Goods aims to provide a combination of a heavy swing weight and a stiff barrel, catered towards hitters who prioritize distance and force over everything else.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   My son hit three home runs with the Goods bat at a college prospect camp this weekend. He says the current version feels amazing and is the best one yet.
    
-   I upgraded to this bat from my broken 2022 Goods. It has phenomenal pop and is the best in the Goods line.
    
-   This bat bangs!!! I bought this bat three weeks ago and this barrel is huge!
    

**CONS**

-   My son loved this bat from day one. After three weeks of use the plastic piece where the shaft meets the barrel cracked. Definitely expect something better than this for $450. Haven't started the warranty process yet so we'll see how that goes.
    
-   The bat handle now telescopes into the barrel after the junction cracked. We had expected better quality for the price and it's hard to accept a replacement that arrives 2-3 weeks later at best.
    
-   Bat bought 2 months ago broke when I dropped it. It's a good bat but not very durable. Connector piece broke and it telescoped.
    

  

### Certification: USSSA, USA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Goods is a top performer and the 2024 model is the most expensive hybrid bat on the market. It's an end loaded bat for that power hitter in your lineup. The alloy is strong, and it has a good whip to it. Overall, The Goods is in the top five in the hybrids for both BBCOR and youth. The youth was less popular because it was a heavier-feeling.

## DeMarini CF Baseball Bat

The CF series combines comfortable contact, explosive power, and unmatched swing speed.

### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton Ghost X Evolution](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/ghost-x-evolution/bat-material-composite/l228675)

The DeMarini CF stands out with its exceptional use of Paraflex Plus Composite and 3Fusion Connection technology, which provides a perfect blend of feel, flex, and performance. While the Meta is celebrated for its EKO Composite Barrel and balanced swing weight, and the Ghost X Evolution is recognized for its Dynamic Feel System, the CF shines with its ability to deliver a large sweet spot, reduce hand sting, and maintain a consistently high level of performance, positioning it as a top choice for players who prioritize comfort and power.


### 
**Evolution of the DeMarini CF series:** 


Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity) 

**PROS**



* A kid in a slump hit his first-ever home run with this bat. It arrived just in time for a playoff game and worked great for my average-sized 11-year-old son - not too heavy.
* After breaking in this bat properly, it really performs well! My son uses it for our USSSA 8U Travel team and you can easily tell when it's hit on the sweet spot. The bat is also forgiving on mis-hits, often resulting in faster grounders than usual (for this age group) and very high pop.
* This bat has more pop than most USA bats, similar to BBCOR/USSA. We broke it in with tee hits, and my son hit missiles and balls over the fence on the first day. Expensive, but worth it for avid players.

**CONS**



* Great indoor results with the new non-Easton bat during coach pitch pre-season. 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 Apr. Son upset I didn't allow use in cold weather, with heavy balls or pitching machines. It was mostly used as game bat last year, did not last into 2nd season.
* My son's bat barrel cracked after hitting his first HR, leaving him without a bat during All Stars and elimination series.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USA, USSSA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

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 reflects 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.

## 22. DeMarini Zoa Bat

The Zoa was DeMarini’s first baseball bat to feature Continuous Fiber Technology. Launched in 2022, it’s crafted to deliver a combination of power, balance, and barrel performance for elite players at the high school and college levels. Established by Ray DeMarini in 1989, DeMarini is known for their technological innovations and passion for bat design. The brand embodies the spirit of both amateur and professional players aiming to elevate their game, and the DeMarini Zoa is a testament to this legacy, showcasing a commitment to pushing the boundaries of bat design. 

**Perfect bat for:** Elite high school and collegiate players seeking a composite bat that provides a large hitting area without sacrificing a light swing weight.


### Key features include:

### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton Maxum Ultra](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/maxum-ultra/l165626)
 
The DeMarini Zoa sets itself apart with its Continuous Fiber Composite Barrel, offering a unique blend of durability, power, and a vast sweet spot. While the Louisville Slugger Meta is renowned for its EKO composite barrel, emphasizing a combination of swing speed and barrel control, and the Easton Maxum Ultra is favored for its seamless carbon construction providing the longest barrel in the game, the Zoa specializes in delivering a high-performance hitting experience with enhanced feedback and energy transfer, making it a prime choice for competitive players aiming to maximize their impact at the plate.


### Progression of the DeMarini Zoa Baseball Bat:


Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

**2022 - [Zoa BBCOR](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/zoa/bat-type-bbcor/l259878)** 
- Continuous Fiber Composite Barrel for consistent performance 
- Direct Connection handle system for increased stiffness and energy transfer 
- Gapped Wall technology to maximize barrel performance 
 
**2023 - [Zoa Glitch](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/zoa-glitch/l347741)** 
- Updated end cap for improved balance and swing speed 
- New colorway


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)


**PROS**



* My son just got a new bat to replace his META and it's great! It's hot out of the wrapper, has a forgiving barrel and almost no vibration. He absolutely crushed the ball. We can't wait to see how it performs when it's fully broken in.
* If you like end-loaded bats, this one has surprising pop with low noise. It feels good when squared up and I personally love it. My rating is 8/10. 
* "This bat increased my exit velocity and feels smooth when swinging. It's the best bat I've ever used."

**CONS**



* This bat is heavy and can be hard to locate the barrel. I recommended for very strong players. If you swing a drop 5 alloy, try a drop 8 Zoa.
* Sounds dead. My son hates it. We bought this bat because of the good reviews. Its expensive and has no pop.
* Only downside is that the weather needs to be warmer or it will crack the bat due to it being all composite.

 


### **Certification**: BBCOR


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Zoa has a strong barrel and connection, making it a heavier, end loaded bat overall. Your smaller players don't get the same bat speed or same performance with that Zoa as they do with the CF. The Zoa is one of those power hitter two-piece composites.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity) 

**PROS**



* Hardly an break in period with lots of pop. I also like the color design (didn't think I would).
* Seems to be a fairly hot bat out of the wrapper. Probably about 300 hits in on it. 
* My son’s first at bat with this new bat was a homerun over the fence at 11 years old!!

**CONS**



* I purchased this bat a month or two ago and absolutely loved it. It has great pop and swings lightly. However, today, after only about 350 swings during normal batting practice, the bat telescoped, which is quite ridiculous as I have only heard of telescoping occurring after tapping the bat on the ground.
* Makes a weird rattling noise every time it touches the ground or hits the ball. Overall poor quality.
* I had this bat for a few weeks before it snapped in half at the handle.


### **Certification**: USSSA


### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Zoa is a two piece composite. Very good bat. It has a little bit of an end loaded feel to it. The Zoa glitch is the Zoa with a flashy new paint job. For around $50 more, you can get this special color. They survey the kids each year and ask, "What's your favorite color"? It doesn't make the bat perform any better. But you know a lot of it is fashion.
