Full BBCOR Review
Ideal For: This BBCOR bat has balanced to slightly end-loaded swing-weight. So, it is popular among power hitters and versatile hitters as well.
2024 DeMarini The Goods One Piece Performance & Analysis
Like the previous model, the new 2024 BBCOR The Goods One offers a consistent performance.
The slight end-load to the bat provides a powerful barrel performance, quite similar to the Easton Alpha ALX..
The signature Demarini in-hand feel also adds to the comfort of swinging.
Like any one-piece alloy bat, it can also have vibrations if not barrelled up correctly.
So, you need to hit it right to launch the best shots, which I think is not a big deal for an elite hitter.
Also, as the Goods One bat has a slight end load, it should be preferred by power hitters and versatile hitters only. The bat produces a nice sound upon hitting which adds to the confidence of the player during the game.
The durability does not seem to be very good, but I’d say this is too soon to tell. Just keep an eye on the buyer’s reviews.

What's Changed?
The end cap is restructured by combining the composite and alloy materials, that offers enhanced leverage and is claimed to provide durability to The Goods One.
Moreover, there is a little graphic update compared to the previous model, the 2022 Demarini The Goods One.
The price of the new model is up by about $50. Apart from that, you will feel no difference between the two bats at all.
Which one's better and why?
There is essentially no difference between the performances of both the 2022 Demarini The Goods One BBCOR and the 2024 model.
Only a slight graphic change is there, with a similar color palate as the previous model. The end cap is restructured for better durability, but its effectiveness is yet to be seen as the time passes by.
So, the decision to buy either bat can be made solely based on your budget!
