Hitting with the VICTUS PENCIL (1-piece) | BBCOR Baseball Bat Review

Victus just added a new offering to their BBCOR lineup with the 2025 Victus Pencil VCVIBP 1-piece alloy BBCOR (also sometimes referred to as the "Victus Vibe BBCOR"). This is the first endloaded 1-piece we've ever seen from Victus, and it's also the cheapest BBCOR bat that Victus has ever released ($200). Today we're gonna see how it stacks up against the $380 Marucci CatX2, as well as the $140 Marucci F5.

hey im an 11 year old u13 AA baseball player and i just wanted you to know how much i love and support you guys and your videos. I love how you don't make people feel like they need expensive bats to be good. I honestly just love you guys and your videos thanks so much for posting as often as you do.

Hank, you're a good man

[@J_ip234]

no hate but aa is not that great you should try out for a travel team i play for a travel team

[@gagekeate4976]

Will you guys should do a video of less and more expensive bats of the same company exactly like you did with the F5 and CatX. I think it’d be super informative for people who aren’t able to afford the expensive ones.

[@benfielding4713]

Y'all influence the sales of these bats hardcore

[@wyattl.4023]

I remember when the Atlas’s were still relatively new. They did a review on one and then they were sold out the next day 😂

[@JasperOShaughnessy]

Yes sirrrr. I have a question. Do you keep all the bats and have a big collection room or smth. If you do you are stacked!!🔥🔥

[@Matrix_The_One]

Now we need to see a video on Will's bat collection

[@thelittlebee2121]

He does he shows it sometimes on the yearly award ceremony

[@PalmitaLimpieza]

I have one kislux bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...

[@BlueshirtFan4Ever]

1:37 That pencil bat has a nice sound to it, especially with the bunt. ✏️💥⚾ Keep up the good work Bat Bros. ✌🏻

[@TheMadScientist07]

Hey Will, have you ever thought about swinging a buffet of the "older" bbcor bats from when you started KZbin to see if they are comparable to new bats now that you improved your swing alot. Your cheap v expensive wood bat vid gave me this idea.

[@baseball_hype1044]

I just got one of these for my birthday and it’s the best bbcor I’ve swung better than my goods two peice by far

[@NolyMoseley]

Wow, that was unexpected. Also, you should do an Atlas USSSA review. I’ve heard it’s really good.

[@noahhackler9232]

You should nickname the bat “The DoodleBob”

[@fordguyjames]

agreed

[@photochick1981]

[@konnerhandschin3817]

When is the vid going to come out for the new icon

[@grayson..244]

I bought a victus pencil bat one piece alloy bbcor at omaha because I’m going in 14u and i was thinking about selling it after i hit with it a few times but i think this review has changed my mind. Im pretty sure i have to just get my bat speed up so thank you.

[@baseballbatbros]

I mean, with how fast they’re selling out, you might actually be able to get a lot of money for it

[@darealavery473]

Hey Bat Bros! Any chance you guys could do a review on the 2025 Easton Speed BBCOR? It'd be great to see how it stacks up against the competition, especially with the atlas!

[@averydumbandall]

Yeah I think it just came out

[@JamesGay-m7p]

It did

[@HenriettaKelly-e7g]

​@@averydumbandall yep

[@HenryWells-s7m]

I would like to see how Easton did with the speed

[@CarterGranTurismo]

I’m thinking about getting this bat over the cat x connect for hs but most likely not but this video boosts the pencil bat

[@Baseball4life160]

Can u please do tuccis vs mizunos?

[@Jay-hr4vb]

Hey, I’ve been watching your videos forever and so has my neighbor and I just got assigned an account so now we both subscribe to you and we really wanna do a video with you. He is a seven year old baseball player All-Star at SYB and I am a12 year old All-Star at SYB

[@JacksonPinchouck]

YO!! I was wondering if you could possibly try out wood bats and gloves from The Hallowed Collection? I’ve been looking at their stuff and it looks super sick but idk how high quality it is?

[@jackhenriksen3563]

Could you do a stinger nuke 1 vs 2 vs 3 showdown? I’m thinking of buying one and I want to see how they compare to each other

[@Tarnished-]

2025 voodoo one review coming soon? im honestly hoping it has as much whip as the pre 2022 voodoos’ and i hope its not as much of a disappointment as the marucci cat X2😅

[@metallicasnake]

Really enjoy watching you hit, Will. Doesn't matter what bat you use. Thank you for what you do.

[@michaeljames4630]

No problem! Thanks for watching! -Will

[@Bearz.Prodzz]

Can you please make a video on the Icon 2 I ordered it and I want to see if it’s good or not

[@rickjimenez8893]

Please do a review on the Warstic usssa composite bat! Thanks for all the good videos bro!

[@CadeFord_4]

Yo I was wondering if you have seen anything else about the 2pc atlas. Love the videos keep up the great work!!!

[@macgitter4485]

Will, howdy! I was wondering who has your favorite swing of all time? I like Mark McGwires

[@Anomalousprodigy]

i like the look of the pencil

[@bobgomez1404]

I want that bat but don’t even play baseball think am just hang it in my room for looks

[@Datchunckyseal]

Can you review the catx 2 composite please. I enjoy you’re videos and I am looking to get a new bat. Thank you!!!

[@FilmColossus]

I feel like the scale needs to be reworked. There seemed to be a tier-level difference between the pencil and cat-X 2. But then they have the same score. That happens a lot where I feel you’re not impressed with a bat that much and then it scores a 22.

[@braves4lyfe243]

Can we get an atlas bb core vs the atlas supervon?

[@rev1378]

Thanks for making me purchase another bat 😭 …. Love the videos

[@aaronspeight5309]

That video took an interesting twist in the “side story”: I bought the Marucci F5 (BBCOR) for my son (he’s a “Rec-plus” player, not travel). Wanted something good but not $200, given his skill level. This video makes me look like a genius. 😂

[@Link006]

I know you guys haven't been doing them for a while... but just wanted to tell you how much I miss the Slowpitch Bat Bros.... hope it returns for 2025!

[@kristieheard6091]

can yall test out the 2025 icon if u dont mind!!

[@russellbrackins7674]

Fr

[@Colinisbetter17]

Just wondering do you break in your bat?

[@BreckenNash]

What is the best BBCOR -3 bat that you would suggest

[@EudyBaseball]

Easton hyper fire arctic, we wating for it!

[@milesalvarez44]

diid u change ur swing? it looks likes ur body is moving differently and ur letting go with one hand, u don't usually do that. hmmmm

[@garetgartin409]

I had the same thought. I feel that the leg kick is less than usual.

[@UnkleRonnie]

I agree. Something has changed.

[@GunGun-kb6ln]

Yo Will, can you try swing the older voodoo insanes and compare them to the newer bats

[@BallerBeklan]

you should do 1 piece pencil vs 2 piece pencil

[@danielshuttleworth1804]

Can you compare all the years of the goods bats

[@OtisSmart]

Because of your review from the 2 piece pencil bat, i bought the 1 piece (didn't want to spend $500 CDN) and I don't regret it at all. The Sweet spot.... OH LARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUY THE DAMN BAT!!!

[@BoaxTrooper]

Where did you buy it from?

[@Zzz.bro.]

@@BoaxTrooperdicks sporting

[@Zzz.bro.]

@@BoaxTrooperor just bats

[@brettazistoast]

Can’t you just buy it from the victus website?

[@Deaconlife]

Will u guys do a hype ice vs a normal hype fire and the Pencil bat ❤I love your video

[@Baseball4994]

Can you do the artic hype next please

[@lillymolinaris3069]

Hype fire

[@0Kryy]

You should put a new grip on the clout just like what you did with the icon.

[@baseballbatbros]

I did 💯

[@imisaacandihunt]

What would be the the bbcor rankings for the Cat 9 one piece? It isn't on the bbcor rankings and they are really cheap right now.

[@maxsuttles]

Just love the design of the pencil bat W Bout to buy it to

[@nickzimonja3382]

Tge F5 for the price is still a banger

[@XWorthySpeed1]

On one if my comments i got a thing from some telegram baseball bat vro thing saying i won a giveaway and im confused what giveaway andn is this true

[@DEValentine]

Have to put in a word for two current screaming bargains that are just as good on Amazon: (1) Stinger Guardian BBCOR -- $99.99! Lots of colors and sizes. Very hard to beat for a durable bat that mashes. (2) 2022 Warstic Gunner (NOT the new one) -- $99.99 for the 33" and 33.5" & $149.99 for the 32" and 34". If you like a somewhat endloaded bat, this is fantastic and much more durable than The Goods two-piece. My college player has hit with both of these bats and loves them.

[@CZNSurf]

Hey Will can you please do another review on the Louisville slugger 718 select?

[@DaBird77]

Are you going to do icon -5 2025

[@pedrovicentearzolaarzola]

parece un lapiz ese bate

[@leroypadilla_FAFO]

Just ordered the USA 28/18 fory 8 year old son. He's gonna go nuts with this pencil bat

[@valarrybarnes]

Pencil vs meta please I’m a 14u player trying to decide which one I want and both of them are reasonable price I just don’t know which ones better

[@YankeesNation835]

You should do the bonesaber bb core vs the Gunner war stick

[@tpanther9567]

This is one of the good better best scenarios, you would have to weigh what you gain to what you give up including the price. Between the three, be a tough choice.

[@southpawsNfriends]

Pencil bat vs atlas one piece showdown coming up please!!!??!!.

[@Philip-k9n]

I recently Y bought an -3 icon what do you recommend to help break it in?

[@Tyson-o2h]

Can you do the first made icon(dark green and black) vs the select pwr (2023 version)

[@eastenwong9492]

Make a OG Glowstick vs the new icon glowstick u made one before u jumped in ev tryna see the showdown again

[@dadbod4life]

Hey Will. What do you set the pitching machine to during these videos? I'm just curious.

[@creidir9791]

This or the 2025 Soldier Tank?

[@ryanjohnson108]

Pencil all the way

[@Chnationalwiffle]

Hey guys anyone have a bbcor bat that they recommend for a 12 year old kid going onto the big field for 13u?

[@YaBoyFish27]

I’ve been waiting for so long for this vid!

[@terminalhunter1]

So, if the Cat 9 one piece was still on the bbcor rankings, it would have the same score as the pencil bat?

[@Blitzballbatbros]

Select vs icon??

[@user-xh2ql2dr8m]

Still waiting on that part 2 of icon vs Tony the Tiger

[@Casezamia]

Can you guys do a video with both of the pencil bats in one. I swing the one piece and i think it is a really good bat.

[@BreckenNash]

What is the best BBCOR -3 bat that you would suggest

[@KiaWilson-n8x]

The Atlas and the bonesaber hybrid are both high on their list.

[@TheMadScientist07]

Select PWR too

[@BreckenNash]

What is the best BBCOR -3 bat that you would suggest

[@johnmack8904]

Hype 🔥

[@notsoviet_sticks5657]

I use the cat9 alloy but I think this will be better

[@J_Byrnsie112]

Can you do a review on the new atlas, just to make sure it is the same bat because I am thinking about buying it

[@aidencarini3216]

You should make a video making your own wood bats and testing them or getting custom made bats

[@daddydoom1270]

So my curiousness is, how different is a BBCOR made bat and a USA stamp bat? I understand drop weights but you review this in BBCOR and how much different does a USA perform?

[@DylanKauflin]

Try the supernova one piece alloy bat!!! ITs almost completely sold out.

[@highlights3213]

Have you seen the new goods idk if it’s just a repaint or the new 2025 goods

[@willadkins7328]

I wish they made a slowpitch softball pencil bat- I'd buy the first one

[@nhoffman0677]

You could get the F5 and pencil bat, and still have money left over.

[@cain2263]

How big is the baseball bat

[@tomandgronkforever4663]

The “no likes in .3 secs bro fell off” guys are losers gang 👇

[@The8BitNerd]

Definitely one of the best paint jobs for a budget bat.

[@FinnChilds]

Keep up the amazing content guys!

[@JDAWG1122]

Will do you think the adv hype is a good high school bat or what do you think is a good high school bat?

[@sanzbadillo9788]

I like the design of bat I thought I was a pencil

[@PeterParker-kb3ls]

I need your help I need to get a bbcor bat but I need a cheaper bat at least under 200 dollars please help me

[@caydenburke]

I have both the marrucci f5 and the victus pencil one peice and i love both of them

[@918guy]

the F5 is just a quality bat in USSSA & BBCOR. full stop

[@NelciNguyen]

I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

[@DustyCrate]

Will when r u getting drafted again😂nah fr tho your swing is great maybe you could even think about posting some hitting vids to help ppl or you could even sell some lessons and make some cash good for u tho will keep it up❤

[@uncleKai_SWW]

They need to continue on this trend and do a crayon, pen and marker. I bet more kids would like to play just because of this idea. Make them at different price points, that way everyone can get one. Eventually, it comes back around people buy the brand more regardless of it’s theme or not.

[@TeagenHolle]

You should do the one piece pencil bat,the goods , the icon, and the atlas in one video

[@darrenlesueur4785]

you need a road tour were guys can pay to go hit on a real field off a machine . hr derby .

[@MrChuckles11]

Y’all should try to reach out to Charlie Condon, so I could see you guys and him hit 500 foot tape measure dingers across the diamond

[@carlosdorsey104]

2025 hype

[@zyrx_trixed]

the pencil bat always seems to be terrible but now its better than the atlas????
