You can’t go wrong swinging a DeMarini slowpitch softball bat. The company is consistently ranked among the best for its performance as well as for the innovative features it incorporates into the designs of its baseball and softball bats.
Speaking of which, here are some of the top picks from our collection of DeMarini slowpitch bats - and all new for 2022.
- 2022 DeMarini Jason Magnum 12” Nautalai USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat
If you’re looking for a hot new DeMarini slowpitch softball bat for 2022, this just might be the model for you. It’s currently sold out - a testament to its popularity - but you can get in touch with us for updated information on expected shipments so you can be ready when it’s available again.
This 34-inch bat is available in five different weights, in 1-ounce increments from 24.5 to 28.5 ounces, so whether you enjoy greater balance or a bit of a heavier end load, this bat can serve up the goods you need to deliver.
Its 12 inch, 2 ¼ inch wide, end-loaded barrel boasts DeMarini’s Continuous Fiber Barrel Wall Construction, for unbelievable durability and hot performance out of the wrapper. Better compressibility and energy transfer are the signature traits of this bat, which will allow you to crush those daring over-the-plate pitches from your first time up at bat.
The durability and performance of the barrel are complemented perfectly by the bat’s ZnX Alloy handle, which optimizes not only durability but also stiffness. It’s unrivaled for feel and flexes less for better energy transfer - and you know what that means.
- 2022 DeMarini Nautalai USA 13” USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat
Bright not only in color but also in features that drive serious performance, the 2022 DeMarini Nautalai USA 13” USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat is another heavy hitter for this upcoming season. It’s available in 34 inches and ranges in weight from 25 to 28 ounces in 1-ounce increments. It has more of a mid-loaded swing weight than the end-load of the Jason Magnum Nautalai mentioned above.
Like the Nautalai mentioned above, it also features DeMarini’s Continuous Fiber Barrel Wall Construction for durability and a huge sweet spot that you won’t be able to believe. It is also paired to a ZnX Alloy Handle for unmatched sensitivity, handling, and stiffness.
Handling, by the way, is what makes this bat so great. Since it feels lighter in the hands (due to its lower end-load), it is much more responsive. Contact hitters will love the light, fluid feel of this bat, and will be able to send hits all over the field.
- 2022 DeMarini Chris Larsen 12” Nautalai USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat
Also new for 2022, the DeMarini Chris Larsen Nautalai USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat features a 12 inch, 2 ¼ inch wide barrel; it’s 34 inches long and ranges in weight from 24 to 28 ounces, so the end load is similar to (but a little bit heavier than) the Nautalai mentioned above.
Like the last Nautalai mentioned, this bat also sports DeMarini’s famous Continuous Fiber Barrel Wall technology, made from a single sheet of carbon fiber. Strong and tough, it is every way the former bat’s equal - but it features something else that players will love.
One of the key, defining differentiators between this and the other Nautalai mentioned above is that this bat makes use of DeMarini’s 4.One Composite Handle. This handle is optimized for energy transfer, sending much more power into each and every swing.
- 2022 DeMarini Davis Billardello 13.5” Nautalai USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat
This bat is hot - in color and features. Bright yellow and purple - a complementary combination that will burn itself into your memory - and weighed down with performance-boosting enhancements, this bat is another DeMarini home-run hit.
It has a large, 13.5-inch barrel (which is 2 ¼ inches wide), is 34 inches overall, and is available in weights from 25.5 to 28.5 ounces. Like many other DeMarini slowpitch softball bats, this bat features Continuous Fiber Wall Barrel Technology as well as a super-stiff ZnX Alloy handle for better sensitivity, control, and energy transfer.
- 2022 DeMarini Dale Brungardt Nihilist USA/ASA Slowpitch Softball Bat
The 2022 Demarini Dale Brungardt Nihilist is here at HB Sports and is available in weights ranging from 25.5 to 28.5 ounces in 1-ounce increments. Overall, it’s 34 inches in length and boasts a hefty 12 inch, 2 ¼ inch wide barrel. End-loaded for power hitters, this bat, like so many DeMarini models, features both Continuous Fiber Barrel Wall Technology as well as an ultra-stiff ZnX Alloy handle.
What is it about a stiff bat handle that matters so much, you say? Well, the stiffer the bat handle, the better energy is transferred to the barrel, enabling a greater trampoline effect through compression of the barrel wall, for higher batted-ball speeds. It’s all about performance, really.
- 2022 DeMarini Young Guns 13” USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat
Last but by no means least we also have the 2022 DeMarini Young Guns 13” USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat in our lineup of bats that are new for 2022 and ready to rock - and there’s a special reason we want to bring it to your attention.
It’s not the fact that this DeMarini slowpitch softball bat, like many others, features DeMarini’s proven Continuous Fiber Barrel Wall Technology or a ZnX Alloy Handle. It’s not even the huge 13” barrel with a remarkably large and forgiving sweet spot.
It’s the fact that only 400 of these are available (420 were produced but 20 are reserved for Phil Matte and JoeJoe Bennett), it’s an HB Sports exclusive offering, and they’re going fast.
It has a solid 5-star review from our fans who have testified to its Hot-Out-of-the-Wrapper performance. Check it out in our collection of DeMarini slowpitch softball bats to see for yourself.
