Stringking deserves an updated review tbh. Been gaming it over my catx, feel like you could probably get some higher velos with it now.

[@Mozziekill]

I love my Stringking

[@jonas.k15]

i think it has great pop and swing weight but the sweet spot is not it for me, near the end cap is dead and near the hands is not good at all, atlas is much better imo. My bat could just be dead as well but that’s my opinion

[@canebuller3174]

I’ve been doing the opposite. I just benched the stringking and the catx is my gamer.

[@michaeldc951]

Been thinking about getting a string king for my son. Second year of baseball. He’s 10 don’t want to drop 350.00 for a bat but want something solid.

[@mrbug4803]

Picked up a few Stringking pro 2s at the College World Series booth this year. They are pretty popular on my sons team and at that price they are a steal!!!

[@brettturpin3559]

Your channel is so addictive. For an over the hill old man that loves and misses playing baseball I love it. Keep it up

[@187Overkillah]

Yeah, just seeing how he hammers those balls, revives my feeling of BP and seeing, feeling and hearing smashing balls deep into the sky right through that sweet spot, you immediately know you hit that good.

[@Qbort.]

Have you guys considered adding "value" to the bat bro scale? As these bats start to get closer to each other it might be helpful.

[@AidanBarbs]

great suggestion tbh that would be great

[@1uckedout]

Value is subjective and will vary from person to person. Considering how fragile some bats can be, a durability score would be useful. Though it would be pretty hard for Will&Co to actually get accurate data about something like that without access to bat company info like warranty claims and Will has already made it clear he doesn't want to jeopardize the perceived integrity of his reviews by having a relationship with the companies whose product/s he's reviewing. Realistically, the BB scale covers everything it reasonably can.

[@bo1129j]

wdym value?

[@Qbort.]

One could argue it's all subjective...

[@michaelstrane3254]

​@@1uckedouttheir entire rating system is subjective. At least price is quantifiable.

[@Las1k]

Bro, price to performance this bat is FIRE! Absolutely sick, make bats $200 again!

[@GLE94]

I am not sure why it is so entertaining for me to watch all your videos of you swinging bats, but man… I can’t get enough of them!

[@KobiHameed]

the way the ball moved at 3:54 😂

[@liammurphy1458]

knuckle ball😹

[@reuszenm]

First, best channel ever. I'm a travel coach (my last season) and I watch every BBCOR video you make. However, I think it may be time to adjust the scale a bit based on swing weight. I don't think many 15U guys can swing an end-loaded bat unless they're legit units. And I know this is a lot of work as my day job is literally running web and KZbin for a big company...but I think it's time to separate the light bats from the end-loaded bats and put them in separate lists. OR, maybe a light, mid, and end-loaded rankings. My son is 15 and at 5'10" 160 lbs, I want the lightest bat with the most pop for him. a 17U kid is probably bigger and stronger and would gravitate towards a more end-loaded bat. Just a suggestion from an older guy that is obsessed with this sport...and your channel.

[@metallicasnake]

One of the things I like the most about these reviews is Will's encyclopedic knowledge of bats. Having hit with so many, it is a great pleasure to see different bats mentioned in comparison to the bat at hand and that's no small thing. Thanks for another great video and thanks for what you do.

[@bmw88watts]

Found this on YT shorts

[@pumpkayn]

It’s the only way I could find it

Interesting barrel profile for the 44 pro. I'd love to see you do a review of the 2023 Rawlings 5150 (if possible).

[@WatsUp7]

yo i love your vids, currently heading into 14u and I have used your channel to get the best bat possible for my build, thank you!

[@aidenboileau5078]

Absolutely love the drone or high up angle of the roof. So fire

[@304.brommy]

2011, 2013, 2014 Easton S4 - all had 2 1/2 barrel diameters. Meant to replicate a wood bat and make a lower MOI... Have a few 33's and 34's!

[@timothypeet2765]

Great video Will. I have been waiting for your thumbs up before I customized and bought a bat. I wanted this bat to be good, I have three different 44 gloves and they are great. Can't wait to hit this!

[@ArchiveQ50]

Haven’t played in years, yet it’s the only channel I follow religiously

[@tonyrogers8188]

They're offering $50 off this weekend if you've purchased a glove. $200 bbcor is solid!

[@DEValentine]

Stinger Guardian is a beast!!! My son's college banger. Big sweet spot and plenty of power to put it over the fence. Amazon is currently selling the Guardian BBCOR in a bunch of different colorways for $199. An outrageous bargain.

[@RonaldPace]

You have a great swing. Nice job with your channel.

[@tiernanmurphy5519]

Love the videos at night under the lights

[@vasilios687]

Curious to see a value/durability/life expectancy scale for some bats that you guys review. Bats are expensive for how few swings you can truly get out of them, so affordability takes a hit in that manner.

[@zachkaltenbach8416]

Love the new drone shots

[@diego3980]

Have you reviewed the rawings 5150 yet. Been wanting to get the 2023!!

[@wesshirk1040]

Found this on a short before it was on your main page

[@Emily-And_the_bffs]

It would be nice to know the difference between a 32,33,34” if the barrel is actually bigger or is the handle just longer?

[@turcotte5]

@The Baseball Bat Bros. @Will, my son wants your batting gloves! They look sick with the new Atlas!

[@michaelkresge7334]

Stinger Guardian + Lizard Skin Flared Taper + Lizard Skin 1.8mm grip = 24/30 bat (7 Sweet Spot, 10 Power, 7 Swingweight). Swingweight goes down dramatically, and makes it feel whippy, almost exactly like a Bonesaber, but it still has the pop and a much bigger sweet spot. Guardian comes with a skinny handle and thin knob that makes it feel more endloaded than necessary. Extra Taper + Thicker Grip is the answer. Give it a try.

[@DEValentine]

My son has almost that exact setup on his Stinger Guardian, although we're using some generic no-name taper. He loves the leverage it gives his swing.

[@landynmcgowen7000]

Will you guys be reviewing the Eason rope? Was hoping to see a review before buying the bat.

[@Ny1252bird]

Cool you can customize the colors

[@PtchersWR]

reminds me of a bat i used to have. The Rawlings Velo 2017 Model. Super balanced bat but the sweet spot was a bit weird for me. It has th e exact same sound as the 44 Bat does

[@baseballbatbros]

Similar to the old Velos forsure

[@ShadyOne9]

You guys must spend a fortune on baseballs!😂 Been watching his videos since day 1!! ❤

[@robertrichards2934]

My sons custom atlas took 10 weeks. I think it was due to the switch over from the gen 1 with the breaking issues

[@AngeloLombardo777]

Somehow I just subscribed, been watching yalls vids for so long haha. That one’s on me boys, my b

[@cartermartin359]

I need a -5 bat with durability and pop with good swing weight any suggestions? Mine is DEAD

[@huntervikemyr7902]

yo that swing at 3:52 had that ball moving like Dickeys best

[@spodge5868]

bat bros, iyo (in your opinion) atlas, bonesbr hybrid, or select pwr for new highschooler?

[@Bostonclaw]

Design is very minimal but with the right colors this could be drippy 🔥🔥🔥

[@obamasux777]

Where can I get one of the barrel rings at?

[@bsballer11]

3:54- that ball danced around so hard. Imagine that thing coming at you knuckling like that. Knock you onto your heels lol

[@bradydavis11]

Thanks for the videos!

[@wyattheins]

Review the Louisville slugger 617 again. Been popping up in college and I’ve heard many say it’s better than the select pwr

[@SportsEditz9931]

What bbcor drop 3 bat I should get that’s durable and good and your videos are really cool

[@callmemoody6018]

I love all of your vids

[@jerryzabba]

We were at a Cal hitting clinic and they had a Rawlings Clout that seemed pretty nice. Had a millions swings on it, so somebody clearly has been using it. That claimed it was an unreleased demo, but it looks like it's only $250 on a couple sites. Maybe worth a review?

[@bradenm8485]

Will, where can I get the barrel rings at?

[@JacobSchweizer]

Should I get it for 139 right now?

[@gottamaintain46]

Hey Will. Why do you think that the Easton Ghost X 30/20 is banned? It’s been banned since 2018. I’ve been seeing it in the little league games a lot lately.

[@mikeh.9954]

What's the barrel ring on the Pro 44 vs the String King?

[@icers86]

Thx for these videos, they have really helped in picking out bats. My select pwr just came.

[@davegod75]

I'd like to see more comments about bats that fit "contact" hitters vs power hitters.

[@landynmcgowen7000]

Will you guys be reviewing the Mav1???

[@eazylou]

Big fan of 44 so I’ll grab one for batting practice

[@AustinJaggers]

Whats your favorite bat over all? Hyp fire?

[@_Nathan-]

Dang didn’t realize the full video was on the short! I’m late!

[@GehrigLair_7]

Real question do you think you would recommend buying the 44 pro bat?

[@joeyzeeee]

3:55 literal perfect contact it knuckled

[@tredogzs]

Why the radio for the rapsodo?

[@IAmLaunchingAS.A.MAtYou]

Try the Soldier Tank! I have been hearing about it and I want to know if it’s good.

[@coachwarrenraven]

Maybe change the boxes to numbers. Power should be Max EV and Average EV for each bat. Swing weight should be the weight number exact to the hundredth, but an outline of a bat where the weight is. Red is hot for more weight, blue for less. So it is barrel heavy then red color on the barrel. Or red on the handle. The sweet spot should also be a bat outline, to show how much of the barrel is the sweet spot.

[@fonzi1014ify]

Hey buddy! Do a review on the BBCOR Easton Mav1.

[@user-ix2jw4tb4y]

When the vid about the new Easton bats coming out? 44 always be drippy

[@toilet_cleaner_man]

Is this the same Stinger Guardian from 2022? Or did they only add the Red colorway?

[@DEValentine]

Same bat.

[@jamaljackson4041]

we needed this!

[@slusk291]

When will we see a review of the Easton Mav 1?

[@caydenmcgarity8574]

Easton used to have an S3 BBCOR or it might've been the S4 that was 2 1/2 inch barrel

[@Arie_V_Gaming_28]

We need a sneaker collection video. I always see heat while you’re hitting in videos.

[@ac_thunder_3237]

Which bat do you recommend for 13u ball?

[@dawsonthechamp]

Do a vid on the catx vanta

[@kzarnold3678]

Good times nicely done 👍

[@user-ld5nl3km3h]

Can you do the CarX vanta connect two piece review

[@caydengibson1738]

I’ve been waiting for this review

[@TheBaseballAddict]

When is the Mav1 review coming out?

[@311hitwall]

What differentiates a bat that someone will use in college vs little league?

[@michaelcarter2797]

Thank you!

[@reeceadams7544]

Idk if I would put the 44 at max power. Just comparing it to the atlas it just didn’t go as far

[@FilmColossus]

Yeah, was pretty shocked to see that.

[@Saw-ds3ro]

The baseball @3:52 moved so much

[@Burritoast]

i dont even play baseball, but i sure do enjoy this channel!!

[@eddieanderson8221]

[@Cowboy_skippy]

it seems like its a good bat for speed/contact hitters

[@tubbytoad0491]

The knuckle on that ball is crazy 3:50

[@OriginalJoe]

You need a driver / golf spin off channel. Somebody striping 325 yarders with Calloway, TM, etc

[@dr.carolineware]

[@tsarmatthiaschapelston3858]

​@@bearsreview5389good point

[@peejaywilliams412]

Do the new usssa zoa please. And measure swing weight

[@CrackD5]

44 is def worth it I have one and you do not notice the barrel being slightly smaller in diameter it has insane pop

[@Adam_Curry]

How fast is the ball being pitched?

[@reiseclark4908]

Here’s a video idea get a 33 and 34 of the same bat but make an inch long puck knob on the 34 on see which is a better option since no one makes a puck bbcor

[@olive6425]

The ball at 3:53 curved so wildly

[@lfish21.]
