Our Review
The Voodoo has long been one of the best-selling aluminum-barreled bats, and the 2019 Balanced is essentially the 2018 with new graphics at $299.95. The pop is excellent and, surprising for an aluminum bat lover like me, it feels great off the barrel. After about 50 swings with the 33/30 I felt vibration only near the handle. It's a must-try for players who want aluminum sound and pop without the sting.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Excellent pop off the aluminum barrel
- Essentially no vibration or discomfort except on shots near the handle
- 3Fusion handle and end cap for smooth control and even weight distribution
- Classic aluminum bat sound and feel
Cons
- Some vibration when making contact near the handle
- Aluminum barrel won't satisfy hitters who prefer full composite
