Yo yo
I have a 33 nuke and want a 34 do u think the Maxum is a good option
All good! Keep grinding🔥💯
What is the best cheap contact hitter bat?
@@leonardprice4764 yeah the Maxum or the Voodoo One
Before vid prediction: Select pwr is gonna kick ass
After watching: Wtf
I’m telling you, I use the vapor for school ball. It isn’t that bad. The vibration is horrible but if you piece it up right it is fire. Overall I think worth the $100
I had an Easton Hammer (BESR) back in high school that I paid $50 for.
In practice off soft toss i could hit warning track easy which was around 315 or so.
But the sweet spot was Itty bitty
Is that vapor in the video the same as the black/grey/white/green one?
@@troygranfors2250 it might be. Most Manufacturers don't tweak their lower level products like they do for their high end stuff.
Jesus loves you all, have a blessed day or night. May His peace be with you. ❤️
I just came off a 15 hr year as a 17 yr old with the vapor and my entire team was saying it was terrible. I ended with a 890 avg with almost a hit every game.
Damn, I played for Palo during my HS days. Nice to see the field is still in terrible shape!
hahahaha
That field did not look good at all lol
Come to Massachusetts...all our fields look like cat shit lol
Hahahahahs

Used the Vapor my senior year and loved it. Everyone else hated it but as a lefty pure contact hitter who went the other way a lot, it helped me out a few times on some ugly two strike swings where I just happened to get barrel to ball.
I love how you know its about to be a DINGER when it goes into slo-mo LOL
i want them to bait us and show a blooper of them missing 💀
Yeah like some of those video games
They should change it up on us and put a really bad swing in slo-mo.
Dude I don't even like baseball but this shit is fascinating.. its amazing how when humans enjoy something, they optimize it to the fullest extent.
You guys should do a youtube crossover with eric sim, the KING OF JUCO LFG
imagine Eric calling bat bros jabronis 😂😂
King of Douche-co
got wha u wanted lol
The Vapor is a GREAT practice bat. Can really build someone’s strength. Hard to use, but hits very good for a $100 dollar bat. Especially when you use a different bat during game, it’s a new world.
I use the vapor as my normal bat and to be honest it isn’t really that heavy
we gotta have a vapor vs voodoo one 😏
Lol
Voodoo one will destroy that bat
yesssssir
@@bidster8945 facts
I have the viodoo one
There is a clear correlation between sweetspot and exit velo for these Louisville Sluggers. The more sweet spot you want the more exit velo you lose.
thats the case for all of these except the Select PWR
Love your channel. I'm old. It cracks me up that you guys think a bat hurting on a miss hit is a big deal. That was every bat when I played. Every bat was basically the vapor. All the bats we used are illegal now. I used a -5 until I was a senior and they switched ot to -3. Wild times. I wish we had bats like this when I was playing. They seem so awesome. When the Omaha came out we thought it was gods gift to baseball.
I’m so happy I sold my 2020 blue meta for 700$ and got a goods. I’ve started hitting it out of the yard now.
Only $700? When did you sell it? What was it’s size?
How much is a goods
@@Jaxoneppleyaviaton $400
@@guyfox3853 oh aweome ima get one
@@Jaxoneppleyaviaton 2 piece is $350 and 1 piece is $300. I gotta say. I was swinging the 1 piece the other day and holy smokes, the barrel is huge, it's like swinging a light pole. I've been thinking about buying one.
One Month later: Vapor sold out everywhere. 300$ on Ebay
Yep just looked, nowhere has the 32/33 models for sale
Time to invest
Will, i like that you are showing us a frame with the barrel/ball contact - this is the next evolution of your format
cheers!
33 stinger nuke is hands down my favorite bbcor bat I have swung. Great barrel size, crazy pop, and sounds great. Only downside is the taper is terrible so you need to retape it but the bat is absolutely bonkers
same that’s the bat i’m using now
we weren't lyin bro! The Nuke is a sleeper
@@baseballbatbros I don't know what I would do without you guys
you can buy taper moulds for bats. i dont know any stores in the US but in Australia our main baseball stores sell them and they are solid. Lizardskin makes a really smooth taper that leaves a little bit of knob to hold on to
I think the 100.0 with the Select PWR was legit!! Thing was MOVING
You have to appreciate that these guys spent over $2000 bucks for this vid 🤯🤯
Nothing better than a good old Easton Black Magic 33/30! That bat was just awesome back in the day. I'm sure these new bats are beyond incredible, but the Easton Black Magic back in the late 80's - early 90's was the way to go!!!
Select is the best. No doubt in my mind
Umm did you not see the 1mm long barrel on the vapor?? Thing is GAS.
@@DB-tu1gs lol😂😂. Idk man. Them velo numbers are poppin
That moment when will was about to hit the end cap on the vapor, insert: "and it was at this moment that he knew, he ****** up"
Please bring back the string king for something. I really want to see it’s exit velo.🔥🔥🔥
string king vs vapor
the stop that you do to show where it was hit is awsome. i appreciate it
I haven't swung a baseball bat since I was 12 years old, but I love watching these videos lol.
17:16 a statistical anomaly, dang Will with the vocabulary tho.
He had me dying when he said that 😂
That thing was a fuckin laser beam off the bat face too.
the vapor reminds me of the old Easton Typhoon from the BESR days when I played. CHEAP, end loaded af, terrible sweet spot size and rung the ends pretty bad. but would send balls flying if you pieced it. thankfully wasn't my everyday bat, just for fun in Babe Ruth here and there. Normally used Easton Connection and then the Easton Synergy, when the connection broke, from high school ball and rec league. swung 34/31
The frickin vapor! Unbelievable! I'm not even mad lol but this was a fun video.
Honestly this might be my favorite BBB video. And I have watched them all.
is it a good bat?
I was a 3 year starter (covid took my senior year) in college so i wasnt too bad and every year id use the new omaha, I absolutely loved it but also out of like 400 at bats in college i only had 1 homerun lol but omaha will always have a special place in my heart. The 5150 was also pretty popular have you guys reviewed it?
also wish i knew about you guys when i was in college i never knew what to use but even in high school i used the omaha now that i remember
You said "sorry if I offended anyone". I subscribed because youve never cared about that. You give your honest opinion and swing ALL the bats. Which has saved me money and helped me get the best bats suited for my kids size/hitting style. Keep doing what youre doing.....if they wanna hate let them hate.
i remember when i was younger i use to swing the select 715, i loved that thing man it had so much pop
Bro just casually batting in Jordan 4s love the vids keep them up
718 select LS 2017 bat is amazing
Just got a new bat and started watching these
the pause clips of the jam shots are my favorite, funny for no reason aha
the vapor is super slept on, my friend uses it and swears by it, his stats back it up too haha
LOL - I knew the Vapor would do well.
I had a similar WTF moment last season.
Such a thorough video. Best reviews on RUclips
Much appreciated man 💯
I'm really looking forward to a LOT more wood bat stuff. Is there a way for you to compare your bat speed when swinging different length / weight bats? I've never seen numbers on that. Would like to see the difference in kinetic energy that is transferred.
We had like 4 choices of bats when I played in HS. The selection and price is crazy now.
Yeah same with me. I remember the Easton stealth was the best bat there was and it was super pricey at like $250 and that’s what everyone had or wanted. Now they have bats over 1k. And every brand has like 5 plus bats to choose from. It’s insane. Things got much simpler with bats for me though when I got to the minors
Have yall ever compared late 90's, early 00's bats to current? for example when I played the big names around here were the TPX Air Attack and Air Attack2, Easton Redline, and TPX Omaha. That would be a cool comparison to modern bats.
Would love to see them make a quality solo bat with a lot less feedback. A power guy myself I don’t prefer the extreme end loads and more of a lighter swinger but I’ve swung it before and I love the swing weight and the pop it has, just rings you up bad enough for me not to use it.
Agreed!!!!
Endload bats were the only ones I could get good contact with anyway. I always topped the ball with balanced bats.
I have the Meta LS (red) I hit 4 homers in batting practice today hope to at 1 in a game! Your the best Will
I remember swinging the TPX Omaha Gold. Loved the bat. Somehow found it in 32.5/29.5
Congrats Trace on your deal with the Texas Rangers!!
4:27 "right off the bat" lol
First bat: i think this is the best sweet spot of all the bats, hands down. Lmaoo
basic rankings where affordability comes into play
1. Select PWR (very much worth the money)
2. Solo
3. Meta PWR
4. Meta / Vapor (ones amazing for pure contact, other is amazing for pure power)
5. Omaha (still not bad for $200)
@13:53 i felt that sting... right off the end, full swing, dead bat/zero pop... *shudders*
Use the green Easton it just came back but it was a monster back in the day pop is insane
Pretty sure the select power and the metas are three-piece bats. Here's what the website says. Dominance is IN R DNA. The 2021 Select PWR (-3) helps you deliver with an EXD Alloy barrel that's a half-inch longer than most traditional BBCOR bats. It showcases a massive, yet incredibly responsive sweet spot in a three-piece design that gives players a stiffer feel on contact. The 3FX-PWR™ Connection System with a VTX ring allows for more efficient energy transfer and an improved feel and the PWR End Cap helps you turn momentum into power on every swing
The 2020 select pwr is hands down better then the 2021, also you all should try to find the 2016 green vapor it looks a lot like grass you’ll know it when you see it.
The Vapor showing out was sick lol! Awesome video boys!
That solo sound is chef’s kiss quality.
everything about the vapor seems like it would be great to hit golf balls with. small sweet spot, sounds like a golf club, and has mad exit velocity
nice work guys all the BBCOR from Louisville. I wonder how the 2021 LTD Select would do on velo test since it dropped early for the Meta recall
The vapor bat is crazy good I’ve seen many people hit home runs with it
You guys are the most entertaining baseball channel
thanks bro
I have a vapor and it is by far my favorite bat I hit pretty good with it. It and the F5 are my favorites but for price it's not a bad bat!
How far you have come, it’s insane, you now always get 100mph every time for exit velo, but then you counted 100 mph as an anomaly and don’t count it. Keep it going bro you are doing great
No idea why this was recommended but it's cool that I'm here.
Nice jobs. I'm surprised you guys were able to swing that many times and still hit the ball.
Louisville should know you are making this video and want to work with you gents. Legends!
If you guys should REALLY do a competition between the select power vs the goods. To determine the best alloy barrel bat. Please
I’m getting the vapor but y’all r making it sound like it’s ass. The small barrel means you prob need hand eye coordination and sim still working on that so is the vapor good for me?
For all you guys that can hit a baseball 300+ feet. My hat is off to you. Many years ago I thought I was a pretty decent baseball player. I had mad the allstar team. I found out I was really average. It took every bit of a wound up swing to get it to go that far. Genetic gifting, body type and lots lots of practice. Eh. I didn’t have any of those.
If possible, you guys should travel around to visit different small parks or high schools and colleges.
I’m a 12yr old getting ready for junior high baseball and I have no clue on which bat to use this baseball season I used a 29in 20ounce for little league. Do you have any recommendations on which bbcor I should use. P.s for my travel league I use a 30in -8
Don't know your names, but the left hander has the best swing. If he shortened his stance a little, he could get his hips rotated more and generate monster power with his swing mechanics.
I wish the vapor could be better the design on it is so satisfying and amazing
I would fully expect someone who wears a shin protector while hitting batting practice to also say “ow” when he hits with the bat like it hurts that bad.
Are you taking the 2021 The Goods or the 2021 Meta Power ?
I'd love to see y'all work with teacherman hitting to beef up those exit velos
“if you’re precise and expert, you MIGHT do well with the vapor”
Hey so I am 13 and 5'8 and I am a pretty all around hitter so what are some good wood bats that I should use? Also, I was looking at the victis nox for a bbcor bat so is it a good choice for someone like me?
Which bat would you recommend a 17 year old swing out of the Lindy12, MT27, or Aaron judges turn model 33 inch
i bought a Vapor for a season after a year long break from baseball it was a -3 33 inch and even after not playing for a year i didnt get a single groundout the entire season all the hits went straight to the fence with a little bit of rolling but still for the price its really good compared to others you might find for the same price, and especially if you cant afford a 400 dollar bat its still pretty nice and hits tanks for its price and value.
Hey I have a question because for next year I’m playing for my school and I want to know if the 2022 select power is a real good and durable bat cuz my dad ain’t sure if he wants me to have a bat that expensive to just break in a month so can you help me out
You should make a video with all of the 99.99 bats like the vapor, Easton elevate, Marucci f5, Rawlings impact, and stringking
already filmed :)
@@baseballbatbros LETS GOOO
Do you think I should get Louisville slugger prime 919 bbcor or the 2017 demarini cf zen bbcor I’m not sure
definitely wanna see you guys do the gold SV12 from ~2009-2010
This goes to show never to judge by the price, whoever gave the vapor literal crack, congratulations 😂😂😂
Also guy in the back throwing pitches had a sudden cardiac arrest when the first homerun with the vapor was made lol
This is for everyone who plays baseball, do the 2018 velo white and blue, it is the next aero burner
This is why I subscribed real reviews and great advice No BS! Adrian
What would you suggest for my son who will be going from drop 10 to bbcor drop 3 in fall? Doesnt have to this year models either
Have you guys thought of testing the Adidas Aeroburner one-piece? I know you guys liked the comp and hybrid so it would be cool to see the one-piece
The graphics on the Select Pwr and the Vapor are both 🔥
could you do the same thing with the Rawlings bats? I would love to see my baby the rawlings threat BBCOR in a video sometime. It packs a suprising punch
i have had a cat 8 for a while what should i get, i am on a strict price limit under 350
Oh my goodness, the VAPOR launches absolute nukeskies.
I have one of the meta bb cores and you have to hit about 70-100 pitches to break it in and when it’s broke in it gives a bounce to the ball
I use the vapor in 10 youth baseball I understand you with the weight it is heavy
wait thats the field i have to run poles at smh !! happy you guys stopped by palo!!
Watches this vid: everyone going to test out the vapor
No cap my dad bought me the vapor five months ago and watching y’all hit nicked with it is so funny I was the same way about it
My favourite bat is always the second cheapest bat in the range. It’s a bat that says I’m committed enough to the game to spend money on my gear but I still have money to spend on beer.
I am between the orange zen or the 2021 meta if I want a good usssa bat which one is better
I'd like to know how many swings players take these days, compared to the 1980s back when they had the old Worth bats, then the Eastons, then into the 90s and so on - all this talk about comfort. When I played, we never talked about that. If you hit it poorly, you got stung and that's just the price you paid for a bad swing. It didn't make us practice less though. So, why not just go with the Vapor from the start and make yourself into a better hitter and save that cash for a better glove etc. Quality makes the most impact in your glove, IMO. Function way better and last much longer. If you're a good hitter, it doesn't matter what bat you bring to the plate - you are going to rake. If you can find one of the old Worth bats, please do a video. Those things were hideous. So glad I never had to use stuff from that era.
