Pros: 6 stars
Cons:
Pros: This bat is amazing. I loved the CF3 Black but now I'm hitting amazing with this bat. It may be $50 more than the CF3 black but it is worth it!!!!!
Cons: NOTHING!!!!!!!
Pros: I agree , it is a great bat, but other than the new end cap (which is pretty nice!) same bat as the CF3. It is easily a five star bat, but for $50 less you can get the same bat in the CF3 !!!!
Cons: None Yet..
Pros: My whole team uses this bat. WOW!!!! A little shrimpy kid who bats after me has hit 8 homers in 11 games. I've hit 36 balls 350 feet in 11 games.Not including the 104 outta the park in batting practice.140!!! The bat has unbeatable pop, it's by far the greatest bat of all time. Forget about the Triton, this one kills it. And I've had it for 6 months, it's still going strong. All Hail DeMarini!!!!!
Cons: You are reading my extremely long review whan you could be buing the CF3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pros: awesome
Cons: awesome
Pros: THIS BAT IS REALLY GOOD THE BALL JUST FLIES OFF THE DOUBLEWALL COMPOSITE I LOVE IT
Cons: price
Pros: Unreal pop off the bat, the ball just jumps. My son just got it and used it in his first game, 3 for 3, two homeruns and a triple. I think that speaks for itself.
Cons: Nada thing!!! What are you waiting for, this bat is the real deal!!!
Pros: Just bought this bat for my 11 yr old son. He had used the CF3 prior. Huge difference between the two. The ball explodes off the bat. The larger sweet spot is noticeable as well. He broke it in a week and used it in live game last night. Went 3 for 4 with three doubles and hit the fence twice. Highly recommended. Is well worth the extra $50 from the CF3.
Cons:

Pros: I used the cf3 red and hit bombs finishing the season with 5 homeruns but this year with the cf4 crushed 12 out one estimated at 296 feet and im only 12! This bat has so much pop and huge sweetspot. I would also recommend the combat b2 also has huge sweetspot and major pop but i still think the cf4 is a little better make sure to read my review on the b2. That pretty much sums up the cf4.
Cons: A little expensive but worth it! Also watch out for sharply hit line drives and grounders.
Pros: the cf4 is asome

Pros: Large Sweet Spot...Little to no vibration no matter where you hit it. Nice grip looks good...Ball does jump off the barrel.
Cons: Cheapest paint job ever, cracked in numerous areas and chipped all over after only about 15 A/Bs. My son doesn't think it is at all better than the Voodoo Double Wall and liked the CF3 the best. I am going to try to get a new one from Demarini thats how bad it chipped.

About the Brand
In 1992, DeMarini Sports had something to celebrate. The three-year-old company had climbed a rung on the proverbial ladder of success, moving its world headquarters from a dirt-floored barn to a slightly larger metal shack. "It was a big move for us," recalled Ray DeMarini from the batting cage of DeMarini Sport’s present-day Bat Industrial Complex. "The new shop was larger, more storm resistant, and -best of all- it had a heater."
In the early days, DeMarini Sports hardly made a blip on the radar screen of softball. With no retailers and virtually no advertising budget, DeMarini grew steadily by selling high-performance bats directly to customers. While established companies made "juiced" bats for the pros and ordinary bats for the public, DeMarini focused on making one line of high-performance bats for pros and amateurs alike. This approach, combined with a passion for the sport, led to the greatest innovation in softball history - the world’s first multi-wall bat: the DeMarini Doublewall.
Released in 1993, the DeMarini Doublewall was the world’s first multi-wall bat. Like a modern golf driver or oversized tennis racket, the Doublewall had a giant "sweetspot," which allowed average players to hit like pros. DeMarini’s sales exploded, and before long opposing bat manufacturers to notice. DeMarini - a homegrown company led by a softball fanatic - had shaken the establishment silly.
To understand the rise of the DeMarini Dynasty, you need to know Ray DeMarini. A cult hero among avid players, Ray DeMarini emerged on the professional softball scene at the age of 40, a veritable geriatric among younger players. With a scientific approach to training, a batting speed of 96 miles-per-hour and a bombastic attitude, DeMarini fast earned a reputation as a savage competitor.
In June of 1987, ESPN launched a nationwide search for a hardcore player to advise on a series of instructional softball videos. When approached by producer Erich Lytle, the biggest boys in softball repeatedly spoke of a five-foot-seven softball giant—Ray DeMarini. DeMarini had mastered reflex hitting, a technique that drops the ball squarely between the infield and outfield. Impressed with DeMarini's knowledge and scientific approach to training, Lytle not only hired Ray as an advisor—he hired him as the host. Together, they produced Ray DeMarini's Reflex Hitting System, ESPN's most successful home video to date.
Having garnered national recognition through ESPN, Ray turned his efforts toward designing a high-performance bat for the masses. To accomplish this, he needed an engineer. "Not just an engineer," he said, "but a boot-strapping rocket scientist who could build an empire with pocket change." Ray's call was answered by Mike Eggiman. Having grown up on a farm, Eggiman was adept at making the most of a situation. Case in point: the company's first piece of automated bat-making equipment had the heart of an abandoned washing machine.
With Eggiman as Chief Engineer, DeMarini Sports delivered a series of industry firsts: the first multi-wall bat (Doublewall Distance), the first high-performance bat for massive players (Fatboy) and the first high-performance youth bat (Black Coyote).
In 2000, DeMarini joined forces with Wilson Sporting Goods to develop the next generation of hitting technology. Ray believed it was a perfect fit, as both companies shared a vision of developing game-enhancing equipment for avid players. What’s more, the companies had complimentary products: Wilson was the leader in gloves, balls and protective gear, while DeMarini made the world’s finest bats. According to Chris Considine, Vice President/General Manager of Wilson Sporting Goods: "The thing that struck me most about DeMarini was their passion for sports and their true competitiveness.
Within a year, DeMarini unveiled the industry’s first concept bat, the $35,000 F1. Secured under lock and key at the DeMarini Bat Industrial Complex in Hillsboro, Oregon, the F1 served as a technological storehouse for future products, including DeMarini’s landmark Half & Half system.
In December 2001, 12 years after the genesis of DeMarini Sports, Ray DeMarini died of cancer in his Northwest Portland home. He was 55. The next summer, the Portland Metro Softball Association paid homage to the “King of Softball” with the dedication of Ray DeMarini Field. Formerly known as Delta #1, the field was DeMarini’s favorite place to test bats during the early days of business. Ray DeMarini—bat maker and player extraordinaire—was remembered for his high-performance softball bats and unwavering encouragement of everyday players. Today, a 40-foot sign announcing RAY DEMARINI FIELD graces the outfield, and an interpretive display chronicling Ray’s life greets players as they register for games.
More "Insane Dedication to Performance" is in store for tomorrow.
