Designed for younger or developing players seeking maximum bat speed, the CF (-11) delivers the same elite technology as its heavier counterparts but with a lighter drop weight for easier control. Its Paraflex® Plus Composite Barrel offers an expansive sweet spot with premium responsiveness, while the Type V™ Connection pairs the barrel and handle for a smooth feel and reduced vibration.
