2013
Dedication to Performance.
For those who long for the extra BP sessions, the first to practice,
the last to leave. DeMarini's new 2013 bats are designed for you.
DeMarini's R&D department aren't the geeks in lab coats, but the
hardcore, mad scientists who still love to jack 500 foot
bombs. DeMarini has spent the last 12 months designing their
new line of bats. They have emerged from their labs revealing the
new TR3 F.L.O. Composite and the X10 Alloy.
Since every hitter is different, DeMarini has designed a line of
bats with something for everyone. Whether you're looking to go yard
or seeking the gap, DeMarini has a bat for each purpose. Balanced or
end-loaded, composite or alloy, check out their new line and see
exactly what an insane dedication to performance produces.
DeMarini WTDXCFC13 CF5 BBCOR Baseball Bat - New for 2013
Using the new TR3 F.L.O. Composite technology, DeMarini has created
their lightest swinging bat yet. The most technologically advanced
bat in the lineup, the CF5 is insanely balanced and designed to get
around to even the nastiest of pitches. Specifically created to
optimized the barrel's balance and sweet spot, this bat laughs in
the face of fastballs.
TR3 F.L.O Composite.
The new TR3 F.L.O (Fused Layer Optimized) Composite is a cutting
edge formation of the TR3 Composite. This naturally chaotic, random
fusing of carbon fibers creates a more compact carbon which enables
the design to be stronger and lighter than ever before. This stonger
design allows the weight to be distributed evenly throughout the
bat. A more balanced bat produces faster bat speeds so you can
generate even more power. Chaotic design, chaotic speed, chaotic
power - unleash total anarchy.
Sweet. Exponentially Speaking.
At the core of the Double Wall construction is two
independent composite walls with thin layers and tight weave
seperated by DeMarini Flex Film. This creates a dynamic springboard
hitting surface with maximum trampoline effect and sweet spot.
As if it needed an exclamation
point.
The CF5's GEO End Cap is designed to maintain stiffness in
the barrel. Keeping the energy focused at the impact of the ball
prevents power from escaping out the end of the bat, resulting in a
better explosion off the barrel.
Bat Size Guide-Help Selecting Baseball and Fastpitch Bat Size
The bat size that best fits you will be one that is comfortable, easy to swing and allows you to produce the greatest bat speed and power.
To obtain your optimum bat select a bat that is not too long/heavy or too short/light.
A bat too short won't provide maximum power or barrel length, while a bat too long will be too difficult to handle and will also slow bat speed reducing power.
First begin with selecting a length. If possible use the previous bat you swung to help establish a length. For example if you used a 30 in bat and now feel that you are ready to move on to a larger bat a 31 in could be the next step.
You can also use the chart below for the average bat lengths based on your height, weight and age.
The chart below is just a guide as each player's strength and bat speed differ.
While the chart below was primariy designed for baseball, we have found it works fairly well for fastpitch bat sizing too. For fasptitch, however, refer to only the player height and discregard the player weight. Also, see notes at the bottom for additional notes on fastpitch bat sizing.

Selecting The Appropriate Bat Weight
The bat weight is equally as important as the length in selecting the optimum bat size.
Bat weight differs greatly depending on the age range and is usually referred to as the "drop" when associated with the length and weight.
The drop is the difference between the length of the bat and the weight of the bat. For example if a bat is 30 in. long and weighs 20 oz. then the drop is 10. The larger the drop, the lighter the bat.
The average bat drop can best be broken down by age range.
Youth Bats (21/4 Inch barrel diameter)
Average - drop 12
Power Hitter - drop 10
Senior League "Big Barrel" Bats (25/8 to 23/4 Inch barrel Diameter)
For ages 12 and under, drop 10 is the average
Over age 12 range from -10oz to -5oz depending on the players strength and bat speed.
*Check with your local league or organization to find out if there are any restrictions on barrel diameter or bat weight.
High School/College Bats
All high school or college bats are drop 3
Freshmen/Sophmore High School players: 31 and 32 ich are the most popular
Junior/Senior in High School players: 32 and 33 inch are the most popular
College Players: 33 is the most popular size.
Fastpitch Softball Bats
Age 13 and under, average drop - 11oz or 12oz.
Age 14 to 16, drop 10
Age 16 and up, Drop 8oz to 10oz. Drop 10 is still the most popular drop, but some power hitters prefer a drop 9.
*Bat Weight is also a preference. There are some over 14 players that prefer and use lighter bats. This can vary depending on their strength or type of hitter they are (power vs slap hitter).Back to Top
