DeMarini Zen (-10) USSSA

Live game action — real usage

HTown Select2025-02-014 min read

Quick Take

One of the most balanced and forgiving USSSA bats available, especially for contact-first hitters.

  • Pros
  • Large, forgiving sweet spot
  • Easy swing weight for younger hitters
  • Consistent carry without harsh vibration
  • Cons
  • Not the hottest exit-velo bat in its class
  • Composite requires cold-weather care

Best for: Top-of-the-order hitters, contact bats, and players moving into drop -10 USSSA.

How We Used It

This bat was used in real cage sessions and live games against velocity, not tee work or short demo swings.

Multiple hitters rotated through it over time to get a true feel for durability and consistency.

Miss-hits stayed playable, especially on hands-in contact.

Performance & Durability

The barrel plays true across the zone with minimal vibration.

After heavy team use across multiple tournaments, the bat eventually failed.

DeMarini’s warranty replacement has remained in rotation for 6+ months with no issues.
