Reviews for the 2017 DeMarini Voodoo One Senior League Baseball Bat: DXVOZ
“Best bat”
by Player (player)Pros: Player I hit the ball over the fence with this bat nothing is better then this bat
Cons: None
“No Pop!”
by Baseball Dad (parent)Pros: Looks good. Nice grip and graphics.
Cons: This bat has no pop at all. Got this for my 11 year old son and am very disappointed. Maybe we got a lemon, since the ball sounds like it is coming off a composite bat when my son hits the ball. Very disappointed.
“love it”
by Robert perera (parent)Pros: lots of pop drives ball amazing beautiful feel
Cons: none
“Nice Bat”
by Chad (parent)Pros: My 10 year old son added a lot of pop from upgrading from an inexpensive clearance bat. The weight has great distribution and overall is a really nice bat.
Cons: Just opinion, but my son doesn't like the grip, too thin, and it has a large sweet spot, but if you don't hit right on it, a good amount of vibration.
“Voodoo One Review”
by Curtis C. (parent)Pros: Good pop with this bat for 12U son. Hit three Homers in three tournaments played, but bat developed a flat spot and small dents. Sent back after three tournaments.
Cons: vibration, denting
Reviews for the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10
“coach/parent”
by Mike Kennedy (coach)Pros: Anti-Vibration knob, Hot out of the wrapper.
Cons: None
“Great Bat!!! ”
by Coach D (coach)Pros: Switched my son from a Mako to this Marucci for 11U travel and what a difference! His confidence has already increased significantly. The sweet spot seems larger than the mako and has a lot more pop with less vibration. Every time he's finished in the cages, the other players are trying to get their hands on it. It's worth the money!
Cons: None yet...curious how the 3/4 will hold up after a few games but so far, no CONS at all. Great product...very happy.
“My Kid LOVES this bat!”
by Mark W (parent)Pros: Great feel. Big sweet spot. Lots of pop. Looks cool and makes a great sound. My 11 yo went from Rec/All-Stars to travel and wanted a big barrel. This has a great weight on the swing and the transition to a heavier bat was seamless. Hit his first ever homerun (dead center) in his 3rd time up. It has become very popular with his teammates too.
Cons: None yet
“money grab”
by paul (parent)Pros: price already dropped from poor sales
Cons: tiny barell bad size translation price already dropped from bad sales do your self a favor and get the posey the barell was an inch and a quarter longer at its max point
“Reality Check”
by LF (parent)Pros: AV2 knob
Cons: Barrel is a little shorter than the Posey. However the AV2 knob is the whole reason to buy this bat. My son used his Posey and dealt with the hand sting all last season. After this tournament with the Cat 7 I asked if he had any desire to use his Posey again and he said no. He stated the Cat 7 didn't sting his hands once. As for the negative comments about barrel length, the Posey isn't exactly the longest barrel either. If your looking for a longer barrel get the HEX connect. If you're looking for a solid bat for a confident hitter this is a great bat to consider.
“20/18 cat 7”
by Jody Brucia (parent)Pros: My son is 9 yrs old and had a cat 6 and has been a very good bat. The bat has a very good sweet spot. I would recommend very highly.
Cons: none at the moment.
“Great pop!!!!”
by Tortuga baseball (coach)Pros: My son was using a combat 27 -10 and we switch him to Cat 7 and you could tell the immediate difference. The balls fly off this bat and has become a team favorite. So much so that a couple of kids have gone out an purchased these bats for their own.
Cons: None
“Glad they finally made this bat”
by acoachintx (coach)Pros: AV2 knob Sweet Spot I'm not going to get on here and say this bat made my kid hit big home runs or triples galore. In an honest review, this bat has improved my kids confidence. The sting from his previous Mako and even the 516 are gone. We have probably hit about 800 baseballs with this in practices and he has used in 6 games so far. At no point does he tell me his hands are stinging from hard contact with the ball. This improved confidence has helped him overall improve his avg and slg percentages. He was so worried about the sting from the Mako Beast that he stopped using it. Not with the Cat 7 so far. Marucci has put out some great bats for older and younger leagues but glad this came out now to hit the 9-12u range of kids that just could not swing a -8 or -5 yet or needed a longer bat than a 27. We have the 29/19.
Cons: I dislike white bats-really the only problem so far is being white and showing every stain.
“Awesome bat!!!”
by Mom 08 (parent)Pros: Bought this for my 10 year old who plays travel ball. Homerun first game used. Multiple other hits to the fence and line drives.
Cons: None
“Great Bat”
by Connor Fleming (parent)Pros: Light weight , drives the ball farther.
Cons: None
“Nice bat”
by Brett P (parent)Pros: Good pop. All around great feel and bat.
Cons: Nothing bad.
“Slight dissapointment”
by Kwantstoknow (parent)Pros: It does perform well. My son swings it like it's weightless. He has very quick hands.
Cons: I specifically asked Just Bats was the sweet spot as big as the sweet spot on the Cat 6 and Cat 7 from coach pitch. You can see my question right here online. They said it was comparable/the same. Oh no it is definitely smaller. The bat is too skinny just like the F5. Also the price dropped from $225 to $199 like 2 days after I bought it. But my son still hits deep w this bat. Looking to get a Hex Connect now. A bat w a real sweet spot.
“Hot out of the Wrapper!”
by GK (parent)Pros: This bay will not disappoint. Hot out of the wrapper like the old Cat 5. My 11u son put one out 225ft and he is not a big kid barely 90lbs.
Cons: None
“Finally”
by Coach Jim (coach)Pros: 11U son always prefers 1 piece, but with that comes some sting on occassion. when Cat 7 with the anti-vibration knob came out, we tried it out. Bat diesn’t make the players better hitters, practicing good mechanics and confidence does. in my opinion, this bat allows for both.
Cons: Nothing yet. cannot comment on durability yet, but that’s why these bats have warranties.
“outstanding ”
by clemon page (parent)Pros: great out of wrapper, my son loves it
Cons: none yet
“Great bat!!”
by Jayyy (parent)Pros: My 9u son absolutely loves the new bat! First pitch at batting practice he laced to LC fence!! Every ball hit was a solid line drive. I jammed him intentionally and he didnt complain about stinging his hands. Kid cant wait to use in tourney. Good job marucci
Cons: None
“C7. 30/20”
by Coach Rick (coach)Pros: Great pinging sound. Can be used in any temperature. Seem to jump off bat with zero vibration. Sons favorite after buying Easton Hyperlite ghost X(2018), Louisville 918(2018) and Marucci F5 (2018).
Cons: none
“Best bat I've ever had”
by Jakr Ludwig (player)Pros: The bat has a awesome feel to it, I love it and so do my teammates!
Cons: Nothing
“Amazing bat”
by Baseball mom of 2 (parent)Pros: Great pop and lightweight!
Cons: none yet
“2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat:”
by baseball dad (parent)Pros: ready to go out of the box
Cons: none
“Bombs away”
by Jac (player)Pros: This bat has a ton of pop!! The ball comes off the bat hot.My son is excited for the season.
Cons: none
“ ”
by kris dill (parent)Pros: great pop out of the wrap first weekend used ball jumped off the bat second weekend hit it even better very satisfied with the bat.
Cons: none yet
“This is the bat!”
by Matt (parent)Pros: My son is on the small side. I have tried several bats: the Voodoo, CF Zen, 618 SOLO. I found with him Aluminum bats worked better, but he didn't like the vibration. The only bat that closely compared to this bat was the 618 SOLO, and even though the 618 doesn't vibrate as much, it doesn't have ad much pop as the CAT 7
Cons: Smaller kids like my son will love this bat, but stronger hitters will want to go with the -8. Vibration is a little harsher than the 618 Solo, however it is not bad at all.
“Great bat!!”
by howton team (parent)Pros: lots of pop, evenly balanced
Cons: none
“awesome ”
by John smith (coach)Pros: great pop out of the wrapper by far the best out there so far
Cons: none
“cat 7”
by crushers coach (coach)Pros: this is the best model bat in the market hands down. ive purchased several high dollar bats for my son over the last couple years and none come close to the cat 7. our whole 8u team uses either a 27†or 28†version of this bat. you simply wont find a better bat for the money.
Cons: none
“Cracked before it seen 100 baseballs”
by UW (parent)Pros: zero
Cons: multiple
“nice bat”
by dad (parent)Pros: bat has a lot of pop, well balanced, very distinct noise, son likes it
Cons: no idea about durability yet, a little pricey
“Marucci Cat 7 28-10”
by Nic Boatwright (parent)Pros: Light weight, good all around feel for the kids. so far no cons. but we have only used in 2 different tournaments so time will tell. so far so good. we are happy with the bat!
Cons: none to mention as of now. solid bat!
“cat 7”
by Labsr4me (parent)Pros: bat feels good in your hands. Can hear the difference when you hit it flush.
Cons: None so far.
“tanks”
by 11u player (player)Pros: No vibration Awesome pop
Cons: none
“Awesome Bat”
by Mike S. (parent)Pros: Great pop and wide sweet spot. My 10 yo son loves it!
Cons: None
“Terrific Bat”
by happy go lucky (parent)Pros: Great pop and balance. My son is hitting better with this bat than he has in years.
Cons: absolutely none
“Decent bat but nothing special”
by Braden (parent)Pros: Good looking bat and great grip. The sweet spot seems small but if you hit it perfect its great.
Cons: My 9 year old travel baller didnt love this bat and prefers his 2017 Rawlings 5150.
“Awesome bat!!!”
by Brandon (parent)Pros: Bought 27/17 bat for my 6 year old, 7U machine pitch boy. He loves it! Light swing! Great pop! He’s now hitting ball to the outfield! very happy with bat
Cons: If anything, price. But its a great bat!
“Dent”
by jade (parent)Pros: tons of pop in this bat, looks great and feels great.
Cons: after one weekend of a few 12u players using this bat and hitting 5 homers in the last two games, the bat already has a pretty good dent in it.
“Third Cat 7 ”
by Scott Grissom (parent)Pros: This is the third Cat 7 purchased in my house. The first two were -8 and -5 models for my middle child. Never had an issue with either one of those, just ages have different drops that they use. This 30/-10 was purchased for my youngest child. He has had several composite bats and we wanted to go back to a one piece aluminum and the Cat 7 was the only one we really wanted to go with because of the success we've had with this bat in prior use.
Cons: no Cons
“Top of the line Bat”
by Parent and Coach (coach)Pros: The Cat 7 has more (PoP) ball speed than the more expensive composite bats and is much better balanced. Younger batters can swing this bat much faster and with better mechanics than a end loaded composite. The bat is ready to go out of the wrapper and just as good in cold weather as it is in warm weather. Try to find a composite that can do that. I promise your Kid will enjoy this Bat and the vibration dampener really works. We had the Cat 6 and was very satisfied and even more satisfied with Cat 7.
Cons: nothing so far
“Great bat”
by ED (coach)Pros: No "sting" Great pop straight outta the box and with 500+ hits on it Excellent feel Bought 30 -10 for my 9 y/o, now half the team is swinging this thing
Cons: None
“great bat”
by Ryan Johnson (parent)Pros: From the very first hit the pop was unbelievable. Now after his first game using it other kids from his have been using it with great results. The absolute balance of the bat makes it feel lighter than other bats of its size. He said thst he hasn't felt any vibration. I would recommend this bat to anyone.
Cons: none
“WOW! just WOW!”
by Baseball dad (parent)Pros: First time BP with it my 9 year old is hitting tape measure one hop shots to a 215ft fence! The smile on his face is priceless! and he’s been hitting with the Louisville Slugger Prime 916 prior to the Cat 7. I definitely recommend this bat to any player.
Cons: He does feel a little sting with fastballs from his coach but feels nothing when hitting a pitch from kids
“cat 7 ”
by citizen (player)Pros: pop feel durability and anti vibration knob
Cons: none
“as good as advertised ”
by Happy Dad (parent)Pros: Bat seems to have a lot of pop not just in barrel area. it is extremely balanced. The grip is very comfortable and perfect size for 12 yesrs olds hands
Cons: every kid wants to use it. haha
“Best Bat I Have Ever Owned!!”
by Jake L (player)Pros: Good pop, the weight is well distributed throughout the bat so it is not end loaded
Cons: Nothing
“Decent”
by AC31 (player)Pros: Good bat overall, good pop but stings a bit, sometimes.
Cons: After about a year lost alot of pop.

Ask A Question OR
How does this bat compare to the 2015 DeMarini Voodoo Overlord? That is my son’s favorite all time bat and we are looking for its twin. Would buy a used Overlord, but they are hard to find.
Asked by Brian
The closest bat DeMarini has right now for a youth player to the Overlord would be the DeMarini Voodoo, not the Voodoo One. The Voodoo One is a one-piece, all alloy design, whereas the Voodoo is a two-piece, hybrid design with an alloy barrel and a composite handle. This is a similar design to the Overlord, with the only difference being the Voodoo is a balanced model while the Overlord was an end-loaded model.
Is this bat legal for our 12 year old league?
Asked by S
The 2017 DeMarini Voodoo One Senior League Baseball Bat: DXVOZ is legal for USSSA baseball. However, if your league is requiring a USA stamp (ie. Little League, Pony, Babe Ruth, etc.) then this will not be allowed for use.
Is this bat legal for the 13 - 14 year old Senior Division of Little League?
Asked by jo
No, unfortunately the 2017 DeMarini Voodoo One Senior League Baseball Bat: DXVOZ is not legal for the Senior Division of Little League. The 2 3/4" barrel diameter is too big and it is not BBCOR certified, which is required for all bats in the Senior Division.
How much breaking in will this bat need? Does it have a pretty liberal sweet spot?
Asked by josh
The 2017 DeMarini Voodoo One Senior League Baseball Bat: DXVOZ features an alloy barrel and thus does not require a break in period. As for the sweet spot, it will be comparable to other bats on the market.
Is this the replacement for the 2015 Demarini Voodo DXVDZ?
Asked by JB
The 2017 DeMarini Voodoo Senior League Baseball Bat: DXVBZ is a one-piece alloy bat.

Ask A Question OR
My son is 8 years old weighs 86 pounds and is 4'7". What length and weight bat would you recommend?
Asked by sj
I would recommend a 29'' 19oz in the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10
What is the return policy on this bat?
Asked by Kelli
We are more than happy to accept back the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 for either an exchange or refund as long as the bat is unused.
What is the difference between the CAT 7 (-10) and the new CAT 8 (-10)?
Asked by Baseball dad
The biggest upgrades that will show up on the CAT 8 (when compared to this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10) are the new multi-variable wall design that creates an expanded sweet spot and thinner barrel walls that are more forgiving after off-centered contact and the 2nd generation anti-vibration knob that further limits the discomfort in the hands from a miss-hit.
Is there really a big difference between the 27"/17 oz bat and the 28"/18 oz. I know it's a different weight and length but can you really tell?
Asked by jp
That would depend on the player. Some players may notice the difference, some may not at all. Generally the amount they notice or the amount it affects them depends on how strong the player in question is.
Son is 7, 4'6" and weighs 80 pounds, plays coach pitch AAA. He has a CAT 7 black edition 27/17 now. The bat coach says a 29 inch, is that too big of a jump for him?
Asked by Chad Bartley
Whether or not to get the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in a 29 inch model, based on his current height and weight, would be more about how well he is handling the current 27/17 bat that he is using. Moving up in size would only be recommended if you feel like his current bat is too short or too light.
My boy is 8 yr old, weighs 110 lbs, 4 ft 7 in tall and he can swing like a lumberjack. Which Marucci bat would be good for him?
Asked by Brandon
Per your son's height and weight, we would recommend getting the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in a 30 inch model.
Do they make this bat in a 31" version?
Asked by Big Al
This bat was made in a 31" model, however we are out of stock in that size at the moment and do not have an estimated date on receiving more from Marucci.
My son is 8 and plays travel ball. I bought the drop 8 version of the senior league model in a 2 5/8" barrel because some of the leagues will not let the kids use the 2 3/4" barrel, and the -10 is only a 2 3/4" barrel. He can swing the drop 8 but is a bit heavy for him and his teammates but if they square it up it's a nice hit. Any chance Marucci will make a drop 10 version in the 2 5/8 barrel size?
Asked by whathappenedtothegame?
We have not heard of any plans for Marucci to make a 2 5/8" barrel diameter model for their -10 bat at this time.
Is this bat hot out of the box?
Asked by Kenny
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 will be hot out of the box since it is an alloy bat with no break in required.
Is this bat hot out of the box?
Asked by Kenny
Yes, this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) features an alloy design to it that will be hot out of the wrapper!
My son is 7 years old, 4'2" an 56lbs. What size Cat 7 Senior would you recommend?
Asked by Timmy
Based on your son's height and weight, I would recommend getting the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in a 28''.
Does this bat require some breaking in?
Asked by Griff
Since the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 is constructed of alloy material, it does not require any break in.
Is the balance on the 2018 CAT 7 better than the POSEY28 metal? What are the main differences for these two bats? Which one would you recommend?
Asked by DO2
These two bats are essentially the same model just with different cosmetics. The only main difference is the Posey model will not come with the AV2 Knob technology that is in the Cat 7 that helps prevent vibration.
Is there a significant difference in performance and durability from Marucci's CAT 7 27"/17 oz (-10) MJBBC7 versus 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat MSBC7X10? And lastly, which bat would you recommend?
Asked by DO2
The Junior Big Barrel model is designed for coach pitch and machine pitch, while the Senior League model is designed for kid pitch. A Junior Big Barrel model will not hold up in a kid pitch league too long, as it has thinner barrel walls designed to offer good performance, but at slower pitch speeds. If you play kid pitch, go with the Senior League model, but if you play coach/machine pitch, then the Junior Big Barrel model would work for you.
Is there any difference in performance or pop with this bat because it's a drop 10 as opposed to the drop 8 CAT 7? Also is there a better alloy bat out there in your opinion and what is the best composite bat? Trying to buy a new bat for my son.
Asked by jake
Assuming the player can handle the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 and the CAT 7 -8 model the same, meaning the bat speed does not change, then a player would experience better results with the -8 model as this bat has more mass to throw into the ball. As for alloy bats in either size, -10 or -8, the Marucci CAT 7 models will check out as some of the best options to consider but it is hard to say if they are the best or what may be better as this is very subjective and could really only be determined by those players that have used the various options.
I’m looking to move up my son to a CAT 7 28/18 -10 from a CAT 7 27/17. But I’m undecided because somewhere I read the Marucci Hex 2 28/18 has a longer barrel or sweet spot. Is this correct? We are use to the CAT 7 junior big barrel and wouldn’t want to get the CAT 7 28/18 over the Hex 2 if the sweet spot is bigger. Can you confirm this? Local stores don’t carry them so I can’t go out to compare.
Asked by Dad
Unfortunately we are not aware of the sweet spot size with regards to the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in comparison to the 2018 Marucci Hex Alloy 2 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBHA2X10. Both bats have checked out well based off of consumer reviews so in our opinion either option would work well for your player.
I understand that the senior league bat is designed for kid pitch. What I don't understand is how the performance differs from the junior bat in coach pitch situations. My son is in coach pitch now. Why would I want to choose the junior bat model?
Asked by Jon
The main advantage of a Junior Big Barrel bat is that they are available in smaller sizes than Senior League models, and the barrel walls are slightly thinner so they give slightly more pop in coach pitch. Some players in coach pitch/machine pitch need a bat in the 25"-27" range, and those are very hard to find in a Senior League model. If your player is large enough/strong enough to use a slightly larger model that is a Senior League bat, I would probably recommend that as it would be a bit more durable overall and would offset the small performance difference.
My son currently is a 5 foot, 120 lbs., ten year old in 10u. He has swung a 31" 20 oz 2016 Easton MAKO for the last two years. I am seriously considering getting him the CAT 7. Should I get the 31 inch 21 oz or the 30 inch 20 oz? Another kid on our team has the Posey28 Metal in the 30 inch 20 oz.
Asked by Charlie
Looking at your son's height and weight, would recommend getting the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in a 30 inch model. If you feel he can handle the heavier size of 31/21 then there is certainly nothing wrong with getting that size of bat. With the CAT 7 being a well balanced bat a size bigger may not affect his swing.
Can you hit with a senior league bat in USSSA league?
Asked by Baseballlover
You can think of "Senior League" synonymous with USSSA kid pitch bat. Therefore you can use this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in any USSSA sanctioned league.
What length/drop should I get for my son who plays 10u travel ball? He is about to turn 10 and is 4'10 and weighs 60lbs. He is swinging a Marucci Cat 7 27/-10 now.
Asked by Troy
Given your player's specifications, I would recommend either the 29" or 30" option of this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10. Furthermore, given your player's age, I would not look to move to a -8 option until they are a little bit older and have had a chance to strengthen their swing.
Is this bat weight balanced or end loaded?
Asked by Ben
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 is a balanced bat.
What is true weight on this bat?
Asked by Angela
The actual weight on the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 is about 1.2 ounces heavier than the listed weight.
I'm trying to decide between the Hex Alloy 2 and this bat. My son is a contact hitter looking for a balanced swing. He's coming from a Rawlings 5150. Which bat would you recommend?
Asked by cameront
There are two main differences between the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 and the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10. The first is the material used in the barrel. The Cat 7 will utilize AZ4X alloy that will offer increased strength and a higher response rate, while the Hex 2 has AZ105 alloy to allow for thinner barrel walls without any durability sacrifice. The other notable difference is that the Cat 7 will come with an anti-vibration knob to cut down on negative feedback on contact, unlike the Hex 2. Because of these features, I would personally recommend the Cat 7.
How does the 2018 CAT 7 -10 (30"/20 oz) swing compared to the 2017 CAT 7 -8 (28"/20 oz)?
Asked by fungwil
Both the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) and the 2017 Marucci CAT 7 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBYC78) will have a balanced swing weight. The main difference between these bats will be the drop weight and that the 2018 CAT 7 -10 will have a 2 3/4" barrel diameter and the 2017 CAT 7 -8 will have a 2 5/8" barrel diameter.
I am looking at this bat for my 10 year old son. The last two reviews about the barrel size have concerned me. How does this bat compare to a Louisville Slugger Omaha 516 with a 2 3/4" barrel (drop 10)?
Asked by wooolbully
In terms of barrel length and size, the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) and 2016 Louisville Slugger Omaha 516 Senior League Baseball Bat (SLO516X) are going to be very similar.
My 8 year old is 4'10" and 85lbs. What length bat would you recommend?
Asked by Colt
I would recommend a 30 inch bat for your player. That would mean 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 in a 30" length will weigh 20 ounces. In my opinion, this option might be slightly too heavy for your 8 year old player. If that is the case, I would consider going down one inch and one ounce to a 29/19.
Which bat would you recommend for a kid looking to hit for more power? The Cat 7 -10 or the Hex Alloy 2 -10? Or will they both provide the same amount of "pop"?
Asked by ph1021
They both should provide very comparable amount of pop and performance.
Does the Buster Posey model have the AV2 knob?
Asked by husker
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 does feature the AV2 knob but the Marucci Posey28 Pro Metal -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBP28X10 does not.
How do you think this bat compares to the Louisville slugger Solo 618? Which would you recommend?
Asked by Jake
Both the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 and the Solo 618 will offer you the same one-piece alloy construction. The Cat 7 is going to offer you an AZ4X alloy barrel to provide an extremely high response rate. Furthermore, the newly optimized barrel design has created a sweet spot twice the size of the Cat 6. I think the Cat 7 is a terrific bat and would certainly recommend it.
Does this bat or the Hex Alloy 2 have a longer barrel length?
Asked by Charles
The portion of barrel on this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) that measures out to the full 2 3/4" diameter will be slightly shorter in length on this bat when compared to the portion of barrel that measures out to the full 2 3/4" diameter on the Hex Alloy 2.
What is main difference in this bat and the hex alloy 2? Which one is better?
Asked by Charles
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 and the 2018 Marucci Hex Alloy 2 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBHA2X10 differ in two distinct ways. The first is that the Cat 7 has an AV2 knob to reduce negative feedback on contact. The second is that the Hex Alloy 2 utilizes AZ105 alloy to thin the walls for better performance without sacrificing durability, while the Cat 7 uses AZ4X alloy to increase both strength and response rate. I would not say one is better than the other, rather it comes down to what you/your player's priorities are with in a bat.
What's the difference in this bat and the F5 besides price?
Asked by eagle ball
The Marucci Cat 7 has better barrel optimization for a large sweet spot as well as an anti-vibration handle design that the F5 will not.
I understand this bat is made for kid pitch. Would there be any worry about using this bat for coach pitch also?
Asked by Patriots
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 could be used in coach and kid pitch leagues with no worries.
Does this bat have the AV2 knob?
Asked by Rick
This 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) does feature the AV2 knob that delivers a smooth feel on the bat with less negative feedback on miss-hits.
What are the differences if any between this bat, the Posey metal bat and the 2016 green Hex alloy?
Asked by ag
The cosmetics will be the biggest difference in all three models. All three bats will feature one-piece alloy designs with balanced swing weights. The AZ4X alloy offers increased strength with a higher response rate in all three models.
If my 8 year old son currently has the 2017 CAT 7 that is 27"/17 oz with a 2 3/4 barrel would this be the equivalent in moving him up one inch in length?
Asked by amy_77
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 is the most equivalent model to what your player has been using most recently. The main difference is this bat is designed for kid pitch leagues with higher velocity.
My son plays travel 11u and currently using a MAKO 30/20. I'm interested in the CAT 7 however he plays with a 2 5/8 barrel. Looks like Marucci only makes the CAT 7 in 30/20 2 3/4. Thoughts on the size difference? Does it really matter to stick with the 5/8 or ok in your opinion to switch up the the 3/4?
Asked by DG
The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 is a limited release Marucci has done for the -10 length to weight ratio and unfortunately it will only be available in 2 3/4" barrels. For an 11U player there is nothing wrong with using a 2 3/4" barrel. This barrel size typically allows for better performance but does sometimes show lower durability.
What is the difference between the Marucci CAT 7 -10 vs the Marucci MSBHA2X10? My son is playing 9U. Also, what weight of bat do you recommend? He is about 72 pounds. Last season he played with the green Hex Alloy 29/19.
Asked by ryano
The 2018 Marucci Hex Alloy 2 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBHA2X10 features a newer alloy that allows for thinner barrel walls resulting in better performance. The 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 features the AV2 knob for less vibration and negative feedback than a traditional one piece alloy bat would allow. At his age and size, I would suggest sticking with the 29/19 size.
Could you please explain the differences between this bat and Marucci's Posey Pro Metal?
Asked by Mirage
The only difference between the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBC7X10 and the Marucci Posey28 Pro Metal -10 Senior League Baseball Bat: MSBP28X10 is the maple wood grain cosmetics featured on the Posey metal model.
Is the length of the barrel and sweet spot as big as the 2017 Cat 7 Junior Big Barrel? I have noticed the 2018 bats such as the F5 are being made with significantly smaller barrels. My hitters need that big sweet spot.
Asked by Kwantstoknow
The barrel and sweet spot should be very similar between the 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) and the 2017 Marucci CAT 7 Junior Big Barrel Baseball Bat (MJBBC7). In terms of durability, if your player is playing kid pitch, you will want to use this Senior League CAT 7 instead of the Junior Big Barrel CAT 7.
For the 27", any difference in the Junior Big Barrel vs this new model?
Asked by Unhitchthewagon
The inside of the barrel of this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) will be designed to withstand the velocities thrown by a kid pitch player (45+ mph). The 27" Junior Big Barrel CAT 7 is only meant for use with coach pitch or machine pitch baseball where the pitch velocity is below 45 mph. The 27" version of this 2018 Marucci CAT 7 -10 Senior League Baseball Bat (MSBC7X10) should be able to be used with pitch velocities that are above 45 mph.
