Nov. 28, 2008 larryreg 21 posts | DeMarini Black Steel Bat I bought a 34/26 DeMarini Black Steel single wall bat, and I have hit it about 200 times and it is getting FLAT .... There are flat sections all the way up and down the bat,,,, Really uguly.. I called DeMarini and they will replace the bat with a White Steel bat... The white steel is a harder composite bat than the Black Steel... They say anyway... Proof is in the pudding when I get it.. |
Nov. 28, 2008 larryreg 21 posts | The Black Steel has been dicontinued by DeMarini, and they are replacing them with the White Steel..... So if you have one, you may be able to upgrade with the new White Steel..... Food for thought....... |

Nov. 28, 2008 SLOBALL1 Men's 50 174 posts | "HARDER COMPOSITE"? Only the handle is composite.The barrel is aluminum.You'll have the same issues with your replacement if you don't take the caution as we all did with alunminum bats. Especially not swinging it in cold weather. |
Nov. 28, 2008 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | OK straight facts. White Steel has a steel barrel with a composite handle. The Raw Steel has a steel barrel with a steel handle. The reason for the Raw Steel if I understand it right was a lot of single wall leagues banned the White steel because of the Composite handle. They both have the same barrel but with different colors. |
