| Saturday, December 13, 2003 | | Distance | 10 | Wow, this bat is the sleeper of 2004!!!!! In fact I would say it is the best bat money can buy, & that includes all the new legal & not legal composites. I really cannot figure out how this missle launcher passed the new ASA test, but it did. Great selling price of 219.99 is also a bonus. Come next season, I guarantee this bat will a must have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Sunday, July 11, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | we got two last week 26oz. we alraedy had a orange crush tech fire wicked and two new rocket techs. over half the team has put the others down and will only swing the 375. best bat value there is by far.

| | Monday, June 28, 2004 | | Distance | 9 | Unwrapped a new Mizuno Crush and a 375 last week. I used a Wicked until they got banned. I'm mostly a gap hitter, can go 320' or so if I catch one right. The Crush is a nice line drive bat, but with the 375 it is hard to miss the sweet spot, and with just a little extension the (.44) balls are flying out of the yard - left, center, right field, it doesn't matter, as long as you put some backspin on it, the ball's gonna fly off this bat. If they told me my Wicked was legal again, it would stay in the bag. Best $145 I have spent this year.

| | Monday, June 28, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | What a bat. This bat was a success from the first person who used it. Team was struggling to hit well and the distance and pop coming off this helped our team put up some good numbers. Best feeling off the barrel I've felt all year, everyone has switched to using this bat on the team.

| | Saturday, June 26, 2004 | | Distance | 9.5 | 28 oz great solid feel. Took 2 BP's to break in right. I'm 6'2 260 lbs, very strong. This bat is great for big guys with slightly slower but explosive bat speed. And I would love to see all these guys who it 400 ft home runs ALL the time.

| | Thursday, June 24, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | This bat is no 2003 F2 by any means, but after a break in period it starts to come alive.I have been using it for about three weeks now and can't wait till I see the same results as most of the reviews. Starting to come around after hitting mostly singles, but hard shots nonetheless.Durability not an issue- very happy with it!!!

| | Thursday, June 10, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Best bat I've ever owned. Better than Wraptech, Blue EST, Red EST, Doublewall Distance. This bat just crushes the ball.

| | Tuesday, June 8, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | It took awhile [purchased around the beginning of May]to locate the sweet spot on this bat. Mostly hit singles with it, but now that I've found the sweet spot, the .44 core - 375 comp ball is flying off of it. **Do not use this bat for any ball higher than a .44 core - 375. Your bat will begin to dent. Use it for what it was designed and it should last.**

| | Wednesday, May 12, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Just picked up this bat recently and every guy on my team wants to buy one. We have a freak,pst,wicked, techfire and this bat hits better than all of them.The pop off the bat is like the '98classic don't know how long it will be legal so get one fast.

| | Saturday, May 8, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | i have only used this bat in 1 tourney so far. it was only 45 degrees out, and i was launching BOMBS with this bat! that's hitting every pitch whether high, low, inside, or out they were gone.you have to hit this bat it takes hardly no swings to get used to. every other bat was struggling in the cold. not mine, every one on the team started using it.

| | Sunday, May 2, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Took this beast out for some BP with 7 guys on the team. This thing was an absolute monster. Everything including the miss-hits were still bombed. This bat will make the average hitter look good and the good hitters look like real giants. The 375's we had were going lopsided by the time we were done and they were water logged and still smoking out of the field. Great bat recommend picking one up if you have the ching and use 375 .44 or .40 cors.

| | Friday, April 9, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Ok, First of all let me say I know what a Great bat feels and hits like. And the Miken Ultra 1 & 2 are what all others are judged by. This year I have hit with a broken in Easton synergy, Mizuno crush, Miken freak, Andersons rocket tech & techzilla, Louiville genesis, Demarinis new 2004 F-2 and the 375. But let me tell you when i got a hold of the 375 that was it. It has good distance just as good as the doublewall distance of 1997-2000 With an even bigger sweet spot. Now as far as durability after batting practice with 44-375 balls it has some slight waviness but with a 229.00 retail and about 189.99 asking price who cares? Guys this is the bat for You, at least for this year. The 375 has absolutely no sting and I have extremely long arms which means i can get jammed a little easier and I hit one out off of the taper at 300 feet. Im not even a rep for this bat. But buy it, You will like it.

| | Saturday, March 20, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Hit my first over the hence homer with this bat. I've been using the B-52's for the past 3 years. This bat has even more pop. It has a great feel, great balance and a very large sweet spot. Not sure about the durability. It's never been a Demarini strong point. I wont use this bat unless it's 60 degrees.

| | Wednesday, March 10, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | my buddy got this bat and decided to go take it out even though the weather wasnt the greatest(wind blowing in) at a park niether of us had ever hit a softball out with. He hit 3 homers and i hit one. The next week we went back and the wind was calm he jacked 11 out of 20 over the fence. Damn thing has a ripple in it though!

| | Monday, February 2, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | Hands down the best bat I have ever used. Switched to this from Demarini Classic (also a great bat) and was amazed at the additional power and distance.

| | Monday, February 2, 2004 | | Distance | 10 | 1 swing 1 small dent, but man that ball jumped like the Composite bats.I went to the backup Rocketech to save the new one for warmer weather.

| | Friday, January 9, 2004 | | Distance | 9.5 | I hit about 75 balls and found this bat to have outstanding pop and great feel for a non-composite bat. I've been swinging the Synergy and love it but found this to be a suitable replacement. The only downfall, the bat had some dents and ripples. I will not use this bat this winter but will use it when it warms up.

| | Tuesday, October 7, 2003 | | Distance | 10 | Phenomenal is the only way to describe this bat. I can't believe it's legal. You can literally feel the balls launch themselves off this bat like a trampoline (very much like a good composite in this respect). Beautiful sweet spot, and once broken in the shots feel effortless. I can't judge its long term durability, but so far I've had no problems after about 100 hits. This bat is a definite must have, especially with the low compression balls it was designed for.

| | Tuesday, September 30, 2003 | | Distance | 10 | I have been swinging most of the doublewall bats abroad, (DeMarini Classic, B52, F2, Anderson Rocketech, etc.)for several years and most of them have been impressive and a lot of fun to hit with. However I've come to noticed that only under certain conditions does any of these bats get the most out of these low compression balls; which is rapidly becoming the industry standard to offset these exotic bats. Enter the 375! I brought the bat on Friday 9/27/03 and broke it in at practice Sunday afternoon. At my Sunday evening game I hit two 300+ homeruns and two vicious line drives. The homeruns was a first for me at this park. The spring action off these low comp balls is phenominal! My Anderson Rocketech is now my backup bat. The 357 has shown some rippling after just this weekend of hitting, (two games) but is still stroking well. I'm seroiusly considering getting another one and use the first strictly for practice. I thought I would never say that about a bat. AND IT IS NOT BANNED!

| | Saturday, September 20, 2003 | | Distance | 10 | Has more pop than any of the other (current) DeMarini all aluminum bats. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the ball jumps off the bat. Our league uses the Dudley core 44, 375 comp ball and it is terrible in warm weather (goes fine in cooler temps) and the DeMarini 375 is better with it than any other bat I've swung other than the composite bats (which our league has banned!). Actually, I've used a red Techfire and the 375 goes longer... Already getting some rippling/dents after just a few games though.

| | Thursday, September 4, 2003 | | Distance | 10 | I would have to say this bat does exactly what it was designed to do "Crush Low Comp. Balls". Rich.
