The Demarini has released new 2023 Voodoo One bats with baseball with BBCOR and USA leagues. However, the new bat iteration has no significant upgrades except for an improved end cap for better durability and different graphics.
In fact, the bat had not changed much since its debut in 2017 when Demarini released the first batch of the Voodoo One bat in baseball.
Still, the durability of this Voodoo One is less than what a one-piece alloy bat should have. Moreover, the price for the 2023 Demarini’s Voodoo One for BBCOR is among the highest in the market, which does not go well with many baseball players.
The top competitors of this one-piece bat are the Marucci CATX and the Demarini The Goods 2023.
2023 Voodoo One is highly popular among elite power hitters looking for comfortable swinging with great pop.

Durability Concerns?
BBCOR
Unfortunately, the durability of the new 2023 Demarini Voodoo One gold bat in BBCOR has failed to impress baseball players with its durability.
Users reported many complaints about the bat not having enough longevity to value for money. There were plenty of issues regarding the falling of the bottom of the bat, damage to the handle, and the bat being broken after only a few games.
Here, the competitors of the new Demarini’s Voodoo One have an edge as it does not have great longevity.
USA
The new USA Demarini Voodoo One bat has strong durability, and baseball players have not complained about the bat breaking early. The end cap of this bat is an upgrade from the 2022 model, hence the great improvement in durability.
Also, the bat comes with one year manufacturer's warranty to testify to its durability claims.
Though, the durability of this Demarini is not as great as that of the Demarini’s new launch in fastpitch. We hope the manufacturers also develop similarly durable bats in the USA baseball line-up.
Verdict
Demarini has released this bat with minimum upgrades to its previous model. The new 2023 Voodoo One makes an amazing choice for baseball lovers looking for a high-performing bat for the BBCOR and USA leagues in baseball.
Passionate baseball gamers love swinging this bat for it is lightweight and provides great pop, which smashes the balls out of the field. Also, the bat offers consistent performance with great comfort and ease.
Talking about the price, the USA bat costs a reasonable price. However, the BBCOR bat is highly expensive when compared to its competitors. Also, the BBCOR bat has serious durability issues, so baseball lovers are uncomfortable spending crazily on a bat that would not last long.
As the bat hasn't changed much in the new model, we recommend you go for the previous models, which cost way less if you are on a budget.
