Bat Review: 2018 DeMarini CFX -10 Fastpitch Softball Bat (WTDXCFP)

After nine consecutive seasons of dominance in the fastpitch softball world, DeMarini released the tenth model of the famous CF series: the DeMarini CFX.

As the tenth generation of one of the most popular softball bats in the industry, DeMarini needed to deliver a legendary design with game-changing technology. They did. But, while this may be a tenth generation softball bat that dates back to 2008, DeMarini has been driving innovation and pushing the limits of bat technology since 1989.  

Now, for the 2018 season and beyond, the DeMarini CFX softball bats are bound to be a home run for players that decide to use them. Among those home runs is the 2018 DeMarini CFX -10 Fastpitch Softball Bat (WTDXCFP).

With a two-piece, fully composite construction and an in demand drop 10 length to weight ratio, this one-of-a-kind design is the most popular bat in the 2018 DeMarini lineup. It is also the lightest swinging, best performing bat to date. Parents, players, and coaches are on board with what DeMarini has delivered. Check out what these two customers had to say about this particular model: 

Pros: "I bought this softball bat the day it came out, and my daughter hit a triple in her first at-bat with it. There is absolutely no break-in period, and the pop off the CFX is insane. I can't speak to the durability yet, but we've never had problems with DeMarini softball bats."

Cons: "The price tag is a bit steep, but you get what you pay for."

Pros: "The ball flys off the barrel!"

Cons: "None."
