- Ladies and gentlemen… the legendary 2015 Voodoo Overlord.
Somewhere along the line, this bat got labeled as a “BBCOR Legend” - so today we’re putting that to the test against the Rawlings Icon and DeMarini “The Goods” 1-piece.

I found this at my local Play It Again Sports and immediately knew it was something special. You tap this thing on the ground and FEEL it flex it is insane
Same
I like play it again sports I go to the one in Overland Park
Superb bat with Legendary status and Grand Daddy to the Goods. The Overlord FT is still relevant in BBCOR. One thing for certain is it has the most “Legendary” name!
Tucci has always been my favorite wood bat and they just made a metal bat you should try it
best bat ever
Im soooo excited about this video!
I bought my son a 2'1/4 -13 Overlord when he was 7 and he used it and raked with it forever!! We then used the -8, -5 and he now has a -3 Overlord in HS. We've been a champion of this bat forever and he's just never been able to put it down. I kid you not yesterday 6/12/23....He put down his CatX and hit the Overlord in BP and after practice got in the car and said it felt really good....then this video pops up today! HAHAHA!! Good Job Boys! - Sincerely the Overlord OG LOL
3:01 no scoreboard celly? 😢
was just very surprised it went out LOL
@@baseballbatbrosfor sure, this was one of the only bats I’ve ever seen that you could hit it anywhere on the barrel and it would go out by 30ft 😂
Agree wills face was so focused and didn’t even realize it happened 😂
I found this bat at a batting cage near me with almost all the paint chipped off and no tape. Thank you for helping me identify it, I was so curious on what it was.
Same and I took some swings with it and it’s very hot
I use a -9 version USSSA or this bat that my cousin used to use. still has tons of pop
That’s what I have
Never played baseball but this type of content is great 🤝🏼
I remember LSU’s Zach Watson used this bat, and he noticed something was off with it. Following this was him snapping it in half after realizing it was done for.
Will I like the more compact swing with less of the extra hand movement but still loading/coiling the hips
Do you have any other hype fires I’d like to see hype fire vs icon would be a great matchup
Hey Will, I have a good idea for Slowpitch video. Use 3 different weights of same bat to see if there's difference in how hot they are. Since they're the same length and barrel diameter, it would be interesting to see.
Have y’all used the 2013 2 piece voodoo? It’s mainly red
Love the daddy fundraiser upgrades to the OG bat bro field. Looks like a college field now
Great videos. Any chance you can start having more high school age kids get cuts in and share their opinions. Although love watching you hit nukes, my kids aren't D1 former athletes and are much smaller in statue (5'10 150). When you had JT and Cam hit in their younger years it was really beneficial to see which bats they preferred and how they felt swing wise. In the area we live, very difficult to get any demo bats so rely heavily on product reviews, especially BBBs.
This is true! Also, they are all getting better as the years go so everything they hit easily goes out of the park so it's tougher to judge what a high school player or what a casual player can do or would prefer
Hey Scott - much appreciated man. We consider this frequently as well.
The benefit of Zak and I (Will) reviewing these bats is that we no longer actually play - we're purely bat reviewers. When we bring active players on the channel to review bats, they typically have specific preferences on their bat weighting/feel/sound/brand. This is much more limiting for an objective review in our opinion.
But fortunately, while hitters can change over time, a bat does not. Even though Zak and I hit higher exit velos than most high schoolers, we're testing bats apple-to-apples. Same hitters, same baseballs, same pitch speeds, same bat sizes, same velo tracking units. Additionally, there isn't any data or research to suggest that a certain bat will start suddenly out-performing its competition when being hit at 80 mph exit velos as opposed to 100 mph exit velos.
We also do our best to consider everything that's important to younger and older hitters alike: swing weight, vibration on the hands, general feel, sweet spot placement, etc.
For example; our BBCOR top 8 at BaseballBatBros.com - there isn't much preference/bias towards a single type of bat that would only suit one type of hitter.
Bat #1 is a slightly endloaded 2-pc composite, bat #2 is a balanced 1-piece alloy, bat #3 & #4 are endloaded 2-pc hybrids, and bat #5 is the most balanced BBCOR bat on the market.
You should try the longest home run challenge with the new Easton Hype Fire coming out
Do the 2014 composite cf6. Thing got sneaky juice.
Try a cat nine composite without grip tape😊
Was that Kraken grip spray?
A bat to compare would be the Select 716/718, another legend ahead of its time. The barrel profile of the Voodoo line of bats has had MINOR changes throughout the years, including the goods. The main difference has been barrel restrictor tech and weighting optimization, so when picking a voodoo bat, a certain weight from an older model might just be better for you compared to the modern lineup which has a bit of a gap in swing weight. Keep in mind, you're using the Overlord FT, the 2014 Overlord is a bit more balanced than the FT version
Is the 2014 overlord just as hot?
Review the green and black mako bbcor
That backside camera angle was great
Welcome back, been a quiet 2 weeks. Hope all is well and looking forward to some “Nukes”. 🚀
Rock on Will 🤘😎
Picked this bat up for my son last month for when he starts high school next year. After watching this vid feeling like dad of the year!
When u show the exit velo can u also show the distance please? That would be so cool. Anyways keep making good content❤❤❤
Man I missed that sound. Thanks for the upload.
Love seeing my Vandyboys. Go Dores. My son is coached by someone who played at BYU while his brother played at Utah I think at the same time you were there.
Where can I get one of these. I used one when I was younger and I want another one. I loved that thing
This bat is insane!!
That’s so wild. I grew up playing against Carter Young in middle and high school.
Please use the Easton S1 COMP hottest bat I’ve swung ever.
A buddy had this, it’s got a durability issue if you smack the thing on home plate. Same issue with the 2015 CF7
Will you the best! If you could get your hands on a Marucci Black 2!! Would love to see you guys take some hacks with that monster
Can't wait to see your review of the new Rawlings 5150 BBCOR. Seeing a surprising number of those in college post-season games among the Rawlings teams.
played oregon state the last weekend of the year too! awesome video
Haven’t watched the vids since I was playing ball but the editing has gotten crisp
You guys should give the Easton Alpha Alx 2023 a review!!
I still have my 2016 one and it still works great when i got it the said its supposed to have a trampoline effect, but I haven’t had any problems with it and I don’t play anymore
It’s called a voodoo raw
i was gonna get this but i got the catx one piece
Do a matchup between the cat 9 composite and the green zen🔥
BTW I love y’all’s content and it is amazing I play for 5⭐️🔥
Hey Will I suffer from JTHW. It’s JT hack withdrawal disease. I heard u were the guy to ask to cure it
Yessir that’s my gamer
Used this bay a couple years ago and it was a beast
You guys should do a home run derby with the orange mako if you havent already
Everytime the Icon shows up, it just hits different.
Awsome!! Hey I can't find that bat in a 34 inch and I really need one because I live in Anchorage Alaska and i don't have a metal bat I just have wood and I use it for high school.
The USSSA version was great also.
Can you do the EASTON HYPE FIRE VS the GREEN ZEN. PLZ😢
I have the same bat I use to use it for travel ball it’s a USSSA 31 inch
I love the old bat vids can you do the old Easton beast
Now do the -3 easton speed bad (the blue one) its one of the first bats almost everyone gets over here in South Central LA
I am so happy I found this video I found this bat in my size 30 drop 8 in my dad storage compartment and in mint condition so nice I had to see what the bat was called the bat might be from 2015 but it is hot
Bat bros are the best 🤟🏽
Will you be trying the New Tucci Milano and Roma Bats anytime soon
Ethan Petry (freshman, South Carolina) swings the goods one piece and broke the school record for HR by freshman.
Spent all weekend trying to find that exact model boys. What timing.
i Swung this bat Junior year of HS, Bought an Easton S1 (first gen) on my bday an hit 2 HRs w it lmfao Coach told me if i wasnt swinging the voodoo i wouldve had a few more that year
did you add a golf swing sound effect at 4:38?
Hey Will, A mens league is in willamette, OR. You should go to it, id think you would rock some baseballs!😆
You guys should try the 2012 demarini voodoo 🔥
I think Carter handed it down to Enrique when he (eventually) went in the draft. He hit the snot outta ball with that bat from both sides of the plate before he messed up his shoulder! We have the -10 version because of those boys!
I just found this bat at a thrift store and used it for the first time and I LOVE it
you guys should test to see which 2 piece goods is best. Personally I think the the first one the black one is the best one out of all of the ones they have made
Dude I think you should dabble into finding the Easton surge bbcor, it was way underrated
The Louisville slugger 716 bbcor model is so underrated. It’s my favorite bat and I still have it.
716 is fiiiiiire
@@baseballbatbros I still got mine lmk if you ever wana try it out. It’s beat up but the ball still flys off it
I got this at a PLAY IT AGAIN sports near my house and it is still the most endloaded bat I’ve ever swung
I have a 2014 Overlord and my question is: are these two the same bat with just different colors or are they different bats?
Can you please do the voodoo insane
I have the overlord but in a -9 with I'm kinda pissed about because when I was able to use it I hit 2 homers with it.
I wish you could get a big bomber from the mlb to hit with the icon and some of the other hot bats
Finally!!!! I’ve been asking for this forever!!!! Goat’d bat
Is there a difference between the 2014 black and gold one?
I call dibs to be the early candidate for taking over the bat bros once Will is too old! Absolutely the dream job
You should do a 2014 demerini voodoo paradox BBCOR 33/30
I have one in my garage I had no idea how juiced it was in 4th grade
I’m still using my brothers it’s still shiny and everything
Used this bat high school and it was amazing
Best bat ever. Wasn’t great in BP or off the tee. Used mine in college and I swear in game that thing was just unreal. The faster the pitcher threw the better it was. Used the voodoo one and it was great but that thing just was a trampoline
Try the 2014 carter young swung it a ton too
I just recently saw that dovetail made a BBCOR and I was wondering if it had any pop
i have this bat and i love it so much
i use this bat for college. best bat i’ve ever swung
Any chance you guys review the provelocity bat?
Need to do match between the 2023 voodoo 1 gold and the goods one piece
Quick question I’m a sophomore highschool I wanna play baseball all year what’s good bay to buy I was looking at the Easton hype adv or the Easton encore alpha alx? Not sure which one is better
Still have mine
Can yall please do Cat 9 vs Victus Vandal!
How much weight is Icon Rawlings for 33 inch?
What’s the difference between the 2015 and 2014 do you guys know?
Hey, i got a kraken bat grip, but i just got the “shipped” email, about how many days will it take to get to my house?
is this the same bat(different paint job) as the 2014 black and gold overlord?
Easton OG Connextion best bat I ever swung
+1 that
Is there a reason you aren’t doing slow pitch anymore?
Can you do a review on the Usssa atlas because I want to know and people are asking me how it is and I am swing it but people aren’t listening to me
have you tested the early 2000s stealths?
you gotta try the 2016 vexxum
Where do you get the blue rings you slide over bat barrels to measure barrel profile/size?
Let me know.
Looks like the Cat X and Rawlings Icon if it had a super baby
he is the goat with this baseball videos.
