## DeMarini CF Baseball Bat


The CF series is DeMarini’s flagship line of composite bats, known for their innovative technology and exceptional performance for a wide range of players. The CF series combines comfortable contact, explosive power, and unmatched swing speed. Featuring Paraflex Plus Composite construction, the CF series has a large, light sweet spot, and its 3Fusion Connection dramatically reduces vibration and enhances weight distribution. 

**Perfect bat for**: Young players seeking a two-piece composite bat with maximum barrel control and pop.


### 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.



### 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. 
 
**2015 - [CF7](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf7-2/l6993)**
- New Low Pro end cap and RCK knob for better balance and comfort. 
- ThermoFused Taper enhances the sweet spot and bat speed. 
- D-Fusion 2.0 handle technology further reduces vibration. 
 
**2016 - [CF8](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf8/l7553)**
- Lighter and more durable than previous models. 
- Introduction of the D-Fusion 2.0 handle across all models for improved feel and reduction of vibration.

**2018 - [CF Zen](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-zen-2020/l8432)**

- 3Fusion handle and end cap for optimized weight control and minimized vibration.

### 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.

Voodoo

## DeMarini Voodoo Baseball Bat

The DeMarini Voodoo is a popular bat known for its two-piece hybrid construction, combining an alloy barrel with a composite handle. This technological twist provides a sweet blend of pop, performance, and reduced hand sting for players—and has created some well-deserved hype for the Voodoo. Founded in 1989, DeMarini has emerged as an innovative designer for baseball bats at every level. The balanced swing weight and maximized pop of the Voodoo bat is proof of this progression.

**Perfect bat for:** Elite high school and collegiate players who want to maximize their hitting power without sacrificing speed and control.


### Key features include:



* **X14 Alloy Barrel:** Delivers a precision-engineered alloy for optimal weight distribution, providing a blend of speed, balance, and power.
* **3Fusion Connection:** Seamlessly integrates the barrel and handle, optimizing weight control while reducing vibration for an improved feel upon contact.
* **ReAction End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without sacrificing swing speed, allowing players to drive the ball with greater force.
* **Two-Piece Hybrid Construction:** Combines a robust alloy barrel with a composite handle, ensuring durability and comfort during intense play.
* **Tremendous Pop:** The Voodoo’s construction is designed to give hitters a satisfying “pop” sound upon contact, indicative of power and quality.
* **Balanced Swing Weight:** Engineered for optimal swing speed, making it easier for hitters to control their swings and hit with precision.

Top competitors comparison: [The Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709) 

The DeMarini Voodoo stands out primarily for its superior vibration reduction and balanced swing weight. The Louisville Slugger Meta is known for its composite barrel that provides a larger sweet spot, while the Easton ADV 360 features an ultra-light swing weight and custom Lizard Skins grip. The choice between these models often comes down to personal preference between a lean towards power (DeMarini Voodoo), sweet spot size (Louisville Slugger Meta), or customization and swing weight (Easton ADV 360).

* I enjoy the balanced weight distribution of the bat in my hands.
* The bat has a really good swing weight, and I know it won't break easily. 
* It has a fantastic pop and an excellent feel with no vibration at all.

**CONS**


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USSSA, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

The Voodoo is an older model. It's been discontinued and replaced by a new bat called The Goods. Both are very similar in design. The Voodoo is a heavier bat designed for larger players who want more power and distance. It's one of the better performers in that two-piece design; it's a composite handle with an alloy barrel, which means they call it a hybrid because it has both materials inside the bat (alloy and composite), giving it an enloaded feel.

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.

### 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**



* My son hit three home runs at a college prospect camp this weekend with his latest version of the Goods bat. He says it feels amazing and the improvement to the connector piece has added even more pop!
* This bat means business! Enhanced power and distance. 2024 looks promising!
* I bought this bat three weeks ago, and I must say that the barrel is massive! I had been using the Cat X for a while and decided to switch to a new bat. I picked up the Goods, and in my opinion, it's a far superior bat, especially if you're an experienced hitter.

**CONS**



* "My son loved using this $450 bat, but after three weeks the plastic piece where the shaft meets the barrel cracked. Haven't started the warranty process yet. Another review mentioned a similar issue, so buyer beware!"
* Bat bought 3 months ago. Loved the balance and pop but junction cracked. Handle now telescopes into barrel. Expected better quality for price. Replacement in 2-3 wks hard to accept. Will stick with one-piece bat.
* Brand new bat, probably only used for about 20 swings during live hitting. During their first at-bat in a game, the two-piece connection of the bat cracked. However, the bat still had great pop.

### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Goods One Piece is the end loaded, heavier version of the Voodoo One. Very similar design, a one piece alloy bat. You have a tiny market share that uses it; the popularity isn't as strong as the two piece simply because The Goods One Piece seems to rattle. If you don't hit it in the barrel's sweet spot, you can get a little feedback in the hands, a slight vibration. The Goods two-piece has a damper built in, so if you didn't hit it just right, it absorbed some of that vibration, whereas the one-piece doesn't have that technology. \
