Baseball
Pros: Great bat lots of pop
Cons: None yet
Dad
Pros: Good pop
Cons: None so far
Slacks
Pros: It is a very well-balanced bat and almost corrects your mechanics for you when you swing it. It is modeled after the CU 26 wood bat, so it has a different look to it than most metal bats. It has decent pop and is right there with most other BBCOR bats. I have been hitting somewhere around .350 with this bat.
Cons: Mine dented in two places near in between the TEAM and M of Marucci. I got it to replace my Cat 5^2 and I don't know if the bat was weakened from trying to mass produce them so quickly or not. I know its my own fault for not hitting it on the barrel, but I still don't think it should've dented with less than a month of use. It does not have the loud "PING" sound the Cat 5^2 had which I miss, but others might not.
Bigboss18
Pros: they really did it this time great sweet spot bigger than expected for a BBCOR bat. Doesn't chip this model doesn't.
Cons: Haven't found one yet
Frozen Ropes '13
Pros: Great balance, swings smoothly, just like I hoped it would
Cons: I wish they had a green version to match my team colors!
Cat5
Pros: ??
Cons: Bring Back the Cat5! THis bat is not even close to the level of the Cat5!
Coach Chris
Pros: Got this as an upgrade from CAT5 for my 13yr old. Opened the box on Sunday AM hit the cage before double header. First pitch first hit 330' Left Center. Marucci you have done it again. Nicely balanced bat with good pop. No ping like the CAT5. The ball moves off this bat. It really feels like a wood bat.
Cons: Don't know what to do with all these DeMarini's sitting around the house.
Gap
Pros: Looks cool, hits well, perfectly balanced, no vibration!
Cons: none!
Anonymous
Pros: I had the cat 5 and it cracked so they sent me this bat, I did not think it would be as good as the cat 5 but I was wrong, it has just as much pop
Cons: The grip comes off easily
Gap Blaster
Pros: Love the feel and balance. Great Pop!
Cons: None, I love this bat.
Yard3
Pros: Good looking bat with a lot of power
Cons: Poor construction. The bat dented the first time I used it in a game. Tried to get a full refund from Marucci and they sent me a new bat after my regular season was already done. No need for metal now it's all wood this summer so trying to sell the new bat they sent me. This is after they replaced my Cat 5 with this one. They need to go back to the drawing board. Will see how it goes after a full season.

Cons:
T-cat
Pros:
Cons: Had a cat5, handle broke, replaced with marucci team, not even close. Going to give the Black a shot. Need to get my pop back.
dav
Pros: Great balanced, I was skeptical when I bought this because I was thinking it wasn't gonna be as good as the cat 5 but I was wrong. They are essentially the same bat, only difference is it doesn't have the same loud PING! as the cat 5 but still you can hit just as great with this bat as you guys probably did with the cat 5.
Cons: none

The Hitter
Pros: Great Balance has good pop for a BBCOR bat, and a good size sweet spot. Even when you don't hit the ball in the sweet spot the ball still goes flying. Almost no vibration/sting. Great BBCOR bat, it is the best I have used. My rankings from the ones I have used 1. Marucci Team 2. Easton XL3 3. TPX Exogrid 4. TPX Z1000 5. Rip-it Protoype 2 (TERRIBLE BAT, those are just the only bat's I've tried, I'm sure if I tried more they would be higher on the list.
Cons: None!
Dr. bleachers
Pros: Does not have as much pop as the cat 5 but if you make good contact, the ball will fly off of this bat!
Cons: none
michael
Pros: Love it. My 14 year old went 4 for 6 in his first three games.
Cons: None
Sunshine- DE, Vipers
Pros: This is an excellent bat. I bought it for my 12 yr. old son who is in 7th grade and looking forward to playing on his middle school team. He also, plays on a travel team he used the TEAM Marucci -3 for the first time yesterday and he hit two stand up doubles and he also went yard for a three run shot. He loves this bat he says there is no vibration. I will be buying him a wood bat soon and I'm sure it will be a Marucci.
Cons: None
Slugga
Pros: Great swing, awesome pop.

the wood
Pros: great bat, tons of pop. 14 year old loves it. coach could not believe that it was BBCOR.

Cons: none
bruce the goos
Pros: best bat ever feels liter then it Is has great pop for a bbcor bat
Cons: 0
cbxfgn
Pros: hits the ball
Cons: much more end loaded than most people say. I had to replace the grip a few times (i bought the same one) because it kept coming loose. you don't feel the sting if u hit it off the barrel but what bat doesn't do that, otherwise it stings a lot.
Robert Wentworth
Pros: Most amazing bat I have ever had by far! Way more pop than a BBCOR and havent had any problems with it. All around the best bat that you will ever get. Bought this out of the ordinary and have tried all of the top of the line BBCOR's. none compared to this. No vibration even when off the handle and end cap
Cons: none
Anonymous
Pros: Very balanced bat with a lot of pop.
Cons: For some reason it chips easy.
Ben C
Pros: Great quality bat. I can't believe the pop in this bat. Balanced very we'll, Deff worth the price. Easy to him them out in BP, 1st couple of games hit them pretty much to the fence. Awesome job Marucci. Also first couple games didn't still looked bran new!
Cons: Possibly put them in more colors, don't make the barrel all white, switch it up a bit.
Chris
Pros: ok pop
Cons: Way to heavy.
Big baby
Pros: Great pop and great balance
Cons: bends easy and cracks easy
havkjhaVDLjhs
Pros: nothing

merrill
Pros: Got this bat when they outlawed The Black. Batted 476 in my senior year with this bat.Many of my teammates started using it when they saw me hitting bombs in bp.Great Bat.
Cons: zip
Sully
Pros: Great bat, has good pop. It's really balanced, I got it for AAU and high school. It's worked great. I have hit good with it. It seems like every hit is a line drive.
Cons: Stings the hands a bit when you get jammed.
Best BBCOR For The Price!! George player
Pros: The pop is soooo good and is one of the best on the market. It feels so lightweight. A very long barrel, similar to the Easton XL but feels more balanced!
Cons: The paint chips very easily but who cares.
great bat Anonymous player
Pros: Pop, weight, and feels like a BESR bat
Cons: Nothing
Marucci is the best!!! Sensored Name player
Pros: I hit my first home run to left field at Blue Claws Stadium at the age of 13. Well balanced, great pop, no vibration Just amazing. Hands down the best BBCOR in the Marucci bat lineup of 2013.
Cons: None.
marucci tristan sims player
Pros: great pop use it everyday love it
Cons: none
Great Bat Dakota Hanley player
Pros: Has big sweet spot, the unequal technology makes the bat move through the zone. The ball jumps off the bat nicely.
Cons: Little Top heavy like it suppose to be. Really nothing wrong with this bat besides that.
bat brandon to player
Pros: great pop for a one peice. color matches everything. feels real light. marucci has done it again!
Cons: absolutely none
Its Ok Beto Perez player
Pros: Great pop, no vibration, and the bat is somewhat top heavy so if you get it through the zone it helps finish your swing and launches the ball.
Cons: Since the bat is top heavy, if you dont get it through the zone quick enough (which is very easy to do with this bat) you will definitely get jammed. Also because of the white paint job balls will leave a mark on this bat and the grip is very easy to get dirty.
The Best Bat that I've Ever Owned. Tan Timmy Cash player
Pros: This is the first Marucci bat that ive ever swung. I bought it with the word of the reviews I've read. This bat feels super natural when I'm holding it. The swing is awesome too. It is balanced, and it doesn't feel wierd when ot is swung.
Cons: None.
don't recommend, there is a reason its 40 dollars BrettB player
Pros: good the first 2 months
Cons: not very good pop, mine broke after 6 months of using it
Great Bat Jack player
Pros: -great pop -well balanced -hits very well -extremely low cost compared to other bats and i have swung different bats a lot including demarini vexxum, easton s1, and demarini voodoo but no bat hits as good as the marucci
Cons: -bat materials are bad quality (ex. paint chipping)
An ok bat for the money Cam player
Pros: It's cheap and has lots of pop when you hit the sweet spot. Has a good feel and not much vibration.
Cons: The sweet spot isn't very big. When you do hit the sweet spot the ball flys but if you don't hit it in the right spot the ball won't make it very far.
baseball bat Nick player
Pros: It has great pop. not top heavy has a great feel.
Cons: gets scratched up quick
eh anonymous player
Pros: great grip, doesnt sting off the end of the bat, good aluminum noise when you hit the ball
Cons: pop wasnt very good
Great capability!!! KristenD parent
Pros: My son, 15, used this bat (33/30) last night & he nailed it multiple times way into the outfield. He looked great swinging it & it gave him more confidence.
Cons: none at this time
very solid joey b player
Pros: This has some good ping to it, and the ball travels pretty well. the pop lasts for a long time. got a season and a half of use out of it and the pop seemed to be the same all the way through. couldnt ask for more pop for the price though.
Cons: not too much. sweet spot isnt all that big though
