The 2014 F6 softball bat is a two piece bat with a double wall, metal barrel, and a C6 composite handle. The metal barrel is thickness tuned on the inside of the barrel to give the F6 optimal weight distribution and increased durability by keeping the walls thick where the structure of the bat needs it to be reliable for season after season of home runs.
Because the barrel is metal, and hard, this is a great bat for someone who plays in a league that uses softer core softballs. Maximum performance is achieved when the ball is hard and the bat material is flexible, or the other way around. A hard ball and hard barrel, or a soft core ball and a soft, trampoline like barrel will not perform well. The composite barrel also helps dampen vibration felt in the hands. Note: DeMarini uses a slightly better composite material on their more expensive slowpitch bats.
