    Two years ago, I shared a Bat Bro video with my son. He coaches Little League and now as a team, they will watch Bro videos together. I feel happy that I was the one that introduced them to your videos. Unfortunately, my Wallet is not as happy. Two of my grandsons play on the team and now tend to always want the latest and greatest 💵. Who am I kidding, it’s worth every cent getting to see them smile and play baseball. Rock on Will, and all the Bros. 🤘😎

    Nothing better than watching an adult with d1 background swinging youth bats to help decide what kids with an avg exit velo of 50-60mph help make decisions on a 400 dollar bat. Really helping that team out.

    The fact that you mentioned the Tank is heavy in the hands helped me so much. My son currently uses a Zoa and wants the Tank or Icon next season. I was worried the Tank may be a bit heavy (even the Zoa is also heavy and hes crushing it). I think ill let him get the Tank if he chooses. Hopefully we can find both bats in stock so he can swing them side by side. He will be in a 30 inch -10 next season.

    It could just be me, but I swear the Tank is starting to sound different, almost like a longer, softer sound than what it did earlier. Crazy that it sounds and feels different and yet still puts up like 115mph. Definitely need a long term review a couple hundred swings in

    My son has the 31 -8 2024 version 2 of the ICON and loves it. Hit his first 2 tanks with that bat, and is already asking for the 2025 32 -5 for next years 13u season. He's a good hitter but once he got the ICON his confidence was next level and he was absolutely raking with it. I like the subtle paint job on the ICON, but the Tank has the drip factor! haha! Honestly you can't go wrong with either option.

    Love your videos. Would love to see you review the drop 10 vs tank and the 2024 phase 2 icon to see Most of us watching gotta be dads with younger sons and the -10 typically is drastically different in terms of sound and break in but also durability wise most players with drop 10s arent swinging anywhere close to break/crack it

  • @BeatzByBryce

    This is unrelated but have you heard anything about the dirty south swag 9? I had a game today and dirty south was there demoing bats, the drop 8 and drop 10 had no break in swings and were hitting it as hard as a hype fire, potentially harder, it was also very slightly endloaded, it also had a very good sweet spot, I game a hype fire and liked the swag 9 almost as much.
