Bat Benefits
Built for U-Trip players that are ready to move from the -10 sizing, this Cat will help your player advance into their older years before high school. A major upgrade that this bat features when compared to the previous Cat 7 will be the updated AV2 Anti-Vibration system that makes this bat the most comfortable one-piece bat out there. As well, you can't forget the new AZ105 Alloy that has four advantages: (1) It is the strongest alloy ever made by Marucci (2) It creates thinner barrel walls than past Cat bats (3) It has the best response rate of a bat made by Marucci (4) Lastly, it is the most durable bat created within the Marucci lab.
Warranty
Marucci offers a 12-month warranty on this bat. The warranty is good for 12 months from the date of purchase. *Due to this bat having an exclusive colorway, Marucci may not be able to replace it with the same exact colored bat if a warranty issue arises.*
Pros: Bought my son 11yr old the 30in drop 8. He had been swinging the Cat 7 -8 and really liked it. For $30 more we gave it a try. Zero disappointment! This bat is everything we were looking for. Very little sting once in a while and he said it was a good sting. Great pop and very well balanced. Off the tee has a ting but once we got the machine going wow it is very loud! He loves it. The color scheme looks great.
Cons: None yet

Will
Parent
Pros: My son is 12 years old and on the small side, 4'10 and 90 lbs. He plays travel ball and after using this bat in practice he says the 30in drop 8 bat feels light and easy to swing. He especially likes the way the bat feels and does not even use batting gloves with this bat as he said he feels no sting or vibration. Lots of pop, consistently hitting the ball to the out field. All the kids on his team were in awe of the color scheme saying they have never seen a CAT 8 this color.
Cons: None.
