That’s the difference between a good hitter and a great hitter: Will became a completely different hitter when he picked up the wood bat. But give that dude a drop 8 and he’s lethal 😂 Druw looked MORE comfortable swinging wood. Freaking laser show.

thats typical when Will's career is swinging mostly metal bats in just BP, whereas Druw swings wood to prepare for the draft and tournaments, and his metal bat is very similar to his wood bats

I always preferred wood bat and hit a lot better with it than I could with aluminum bat. Too bad MLB didn’t take that into consideration back then

@@babat304. some people feel that way, but that mostly comes down to the specific bats you swung, how good you were at hitting, and the sweet spot of the bat. so many people buy Easton Speed's because they look cool and then wonder why the ball hardly goes 20ft infront of them, but then rake with a Victus i13 maple bat

@@baileysmith4744 Yes, it happened that my metal bat even at 34 was too light for me while with a 34/32 wood bat, it was the perfect one for me and I was crushing everything. I did play professional ball for 6 years. Only that I wish that scouts in high school would have looked at me for how I hit with a wood bat since MLB uses wood bat
It amazes me how much power Druw can generate with such an effortless swing.

I feel like druw is the type of player that every youngster should model his game after. He’s extremely quick, both on his feet and with his hands. He also has good plate discipline and is a good team leader. Great vid guys
This was awesome Will! His dad is still one of my favorite Braves of all time.
The best part of your videos is watching just how much fun you're having!
The difference between Druw and Wills’ commentary below their names😂. Druw: a bunch of great stuff. Will: BP GOD😂. I fricking love it dude. Keep up the amazing videos bro
Absolutely infectious personality can’t wait to him perform over the next couple years
Letssss gooooo, been waiting all day for this video
Jeez Will! Clouds out guns out! You hit some bangers! Loved the vid!
I’ve been waiting for this video for so long, so glad I finally got it
Druw just has that effortless power, much like a Griffey swing
Been waiting for this one!!
One of the smoothest RH swings I've seen! Great video and content!
This was one of the more satisfying videos to watch. Keep it up! Future Wood Bat Test Request- Viper Bats
Druw gets his hands through so fast. Same thing with Rutschman, and you really see it with the wood bats. Will rakes but these guys are just different. Different topic and maybe an odd video request, but I've started playing softball recently for the first time in my late 30s. I have a loopy left-handed swing, hit of plenty bombs in HS and college and the power just doesn't translate to slowpitch. I'd love to see you breakdown the difference in your swing for both contexts.

Cool vid. It’s incredible how much bat speed and power (and how quickly) Jones generates with such little motion in a short compact swing.
i was waiting for this one bro, he’s my favorite prospect
Great video Will! Bring on the top draft picks ...
BRO!! This is so sick! The day before he probably gets drafted 1st overall. What a come up, Will! Proud of you and your videos
Damn I love these videos!!
I hope Druw goes far and stays around the right people in his journey! Those swings are quick and lethal!
Its gonna be a pleasure to watch kids like Druw play MLB ball.
explosive swing, just so effortless from this young man, can wait for him to gain more strength and shine in the bigs
Dang Will, you’re vids in the Petrols series has been straight fire bro 🔥
Congrats druw for making it to the mlb 🎉🥳
Hi I love your videos keep it up I subbed and I liked love em
Best collab so far W VID
Awesome videos! You should totally have like 2 outfielders - there's so much potential for amazing catches on the wall ;)
Love the vids keep up the good work and do you recommend Any youth wood bats
For a juiced BESR bat I remember swinging the Easton Stealth composites and you could feel those things flex on impact. It was like a freaking rocket launcher
Great video guys! The Mizuno was wrapped in silicon and the idea was it would give the ball back spin. Obviously that's not the case and it doesn't help the sweep spot is the size of a quarter. Would you recommend the Tatis over the Vladimir Guerrero edition Louisville?
16:49 Yessir!!! Y’all took my recommendation. I would be specific about turn models, types of wood, and brands for each individual bat ranking. Maybe throw durability in there as well. And obviously u gotta do wood composites.
Hahahahaha this is awesome, love your vids will, never stop
Huge Diamondbacks fan...looking forward to seeing what kiddo can do!!
beautiful short, quick, compact swing. see you soon in the 2 spot for an MLB team. Best of luck
When I watched your vid about the difference between 2019 and 2021 MLB balls and high school baseballs, I had to search this very question. I should have just waited. Thanks!
Love this video keep doing them like this with future prospects and people who have been in the mlb before. Next person you should do should be Elijah green
Druw looks alot like his pops seems like a good kid with a great swing, wish him the best. Also, Will was dropping bombs in this one nice hacks dude
Oh bro you dropping heat 🔥🔥🔥
This video such a dub. Dru gonna be a beast in the pros. Swing is smooooth 🙏
This video was amazing 😱
How do you guys still not have a gold play button. Most underated channel ever
I didn't know how much I wanted this collab until I saw it.
This is what the Internet has been waiting for!

Sweet vid! Cool to see the results. Did you break the 2022 voodoo one Will?
That didn't take long to update the title. I like it!
Watching these kinds of videos make me miss playing baseball
Great video !! I’m watching the draft right now and they’re debating whether or not Druw is going first!
Druw is a beast. He makes it look so easy and smooth.
Awesome guys!! 💪💪👊👊
Yes!!! I've been wanting a wood bat scale!!!
Lookn forward to watching this kid play in the MLB, take care n God Bless!!!!
I loved watching his dad play when I was a kid, going to be awesome to see what he does.
This is so sick
Great vid love drew
Love the videos with blue-chip prospects!
That dinger at 11:52 might just be the best sound I've ever heard out of a metal bat.
Tomorrow is draft night and I was able to see druws uprising through middle school and it was crazy to see him finally win his state championship and tomorrow night is his draft night I can’t believe it
Great vid broke my thumb today catching so this makes me happey
Could you guys compare the BBCOR Victus Vandal and the BBCOR Voodoo One?
Love the videos
Love the scoreboard saying “perfect perfect”
That's some amazing separation
Really interesting seeing the difference in Will and Druw swings and how they load and hit it just as far.
#2 MLB draft pick! Congratulations Druw!!!!
this was awesome
This was fire!
Congratulations Drew for being drafted!
Druws swing looks effortless and he’s crushing it
Druw out here hitting nukes and not breaking a sweat with that swing 🔥 beautiful to watch
Hey will, been watching the videos for a while and I'm thinking of buying the goods 2-piece with a good warranty Incase it telescopes. What's your opinion?
Do you guys have plans to review the Baum Axe bat?
dude he makes speed look effortless, the greats always do
love you guys
Welcome to the DBacks Druw. Can't wait to see you in the Sedona Red and Black.
I’m an owner of both, I got a 32’ voodoo for junior high and a 33’ for high school. I’m 6’2 270, and I think I am in need for a 34’. I whipped both honestly. I can swing an end loaded 33’, so which 34 inch do you think I should get?
Man everything his hits is like a line drive. He's going to be a beast in the majors.
What a gorgeous ballpark!
Why does will look like he's juiced? 🤣 great video. You guys are great
It is finally hereeeeee!
Needed a new vid today for the big 18th bday!!!
you guys should do a video comparing the Easton XL1 Orange vs the 2017 Green zen
BEST VID YET
I love y’all and drew jones y’all are the best
Can you guys review some of the Bruce bolt bats??
Can you guys do a vid with the Bobby Witt Jr. BW7 model birch and wood
Waiting for Will to go out there sleeveless and put on a gun show while taking BP. Great video, that's a hell of a nice baseball field for D3.
Nice to see the 2021 Voodoo One back in action. This one doesn't seem to have any durability issues, unlike the 2022.
You guys should do a bat review of the Demarini CF Mashup (USSSA). They have a drop 5 too.
Lesss gooo you made a collab with druw yes yes yes
This is so 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Seems like a nice kid. Love the balance.
