Rawlings Icon vs. THE GOODS & VOODOO ONE | BBCOR Exit Velocity Showdown 

alright rawlings you outdid yourselves, now make it cheaper. lol

It’s honestly infuriating to me that we are back to having these $500 dollar bats actually being part of the BBCOR meta again.

The Most underrated bat against one of the most know bats, it just sucks to know that a expensive bat(Rawlings icon) is really worth $500. MAKE BATS $200 AGIAN✊✊✊

Back in November when it was first released, my travel ball organization had a rawlings equipment day. I got the chance to swing the icon that day. I knew that it was hot, but I didn't enjoy swinging it because of the thin and slick grip. Never knew it was this good though.

My college team is sponsored by Rawlings and we have some icons and some little dudes have hit some absolute shots with em. Only issue with the bat is there is only one left on our team that still has the end cap attached, all the other ones have popped off. The one that still has an end cap is cracked on the barrel toward the connection piece too. Pretty frustrating for anyone who will be buying w their own money but if you somehow have the chance to swing this bat for free then absolutely do.

Good for Rawlings!! I never thought a bat would beat the Voodoo or The Goods, then the Atlas and Icon came out and it’s just getting better and better! Love to see it!

Respect for throwing the swing and miss in the montage

I love the Icon so much! Appreciate the content it is really awesome for baseball fans. Sucks I can’t afford the bat, keep doing what you guys are doing much love!

Amazing contribution to the baseball community

Best and most honest baseball bat review channel out there. Both fun and informative. Rock on Will and the BBB's 🤘😎

just saw a collage player using this bat its nuts how this bat is blowing up as much as it is

Wow very entertaining to watch guys, always love your videos!

Bought it for my 14U son and he loves it!!! Hits missiles

The end cap on this bat is cheap as hell. Our local D1 University has a bat contract with Rawlings. They got the bats before the season started and had durability problems. They sent many bats back for warranty issues by just taking BP.

Hot Bat!!🔥I'm really liking this bat, thanks for the review on this one. As always ⚾️🔥video!

I have a feeling it’s not going to end well for the icon with the rules and all

Let’s goooo the bros always have the best bat reviews

Thats crazy! Never saw this coming from rawlings thats for sure.

Great video. Great job, Rawlings.

Dang that was insane how well it performed for being bbcor

Atlas has gotta reign supreme. At a $200 discount for equal or better performance. I’m excited for that vid in the next couple of hours.

Bought the ICON for my son and he has the Voodoo one as well. He now prefers the ICON over the Voodoo. ICON actually feels a lot like the Voodoo in swing weight. Probably should be more like 7 instead of a 5 on the swing weight chart. ICON is legit though.

The sound of the Icon reminds me of the Demarini CF4 Black BESR from 2010.

We love bat bros ❤

Would love to see that swing in the show! Icon looks solid as heck, but I’m on the marucci train rn. Just got my new CatX❤️

Hey Will! Would you ever do wood bat scale or would that be too much hassle as of course the higher the price the better the quality?

Ban it! If the missile 2 was too hot this shouldn't even be a question 🤣🤣

My son shattered the end cap on day 2 of BP! If wasn’t for Tracy at Rawlings coming thru and exchanging it in less than 3 days time…. I’d be bashing reliablity! So have a new one for the weekend series!! I’ll see what happens!! But bat has some pop ….. 500 but will it be reliable……

I’ve been loving Will’s complete disbelief over the course of the Icon mini series

congrats on 400k🥳

He wanted so bad to hate that bat 🤣

The icon sounds so good

I never used bbcor. I rocked that Louisville exo loved that thing

Does the rubber connection piece on the icon seem loose or like it isn't glued down? just wondering if that is going to be a problem or if it shouldn't be a worry.

Some websites are selling a free grip upgrade with purchase of an Icon. Maybe they've been watching your videos? 😏

Just got It amazing has insane juice.

I need to try this bat

Do you think this bay is potentially ‘ban-worthy good’ or is it just really good

I swung the Icon at closeout bats and honestly I was a tad biased because I generally never hit well with composite bats, seems like if I actually gave it a chance I’d be better off, still happy with my Atlas tho

Imo the icon has the best sweet spot towards the hands of any bbcor bat. That’s a composite speciality. Some other two pieces will have more barrel towards the end but the icon is the goat of hitting jam shots like 110

The new custom Atlas! 🔥🔥

Please get a try out to The Tulsa Drillers. You could make the bigs.

Even though it’s $500 I am surprised because I never thought a comp bbcor would ever be able to keep up with some of the best alloys in the game

Could you guys rate the easton hype comp 23? I have that bat and i want to see how it compares the the icon

You guys need to do a review on the warstic warhawk soon

Icon reminds me of that white 716

The big thing for me is the fact that the voodoo one is 150 dollars less while still hanging in there it’s insane how much these companies sell these for

You should try the 2017 Rawlings velo hybrid

You guys gotta find one of those old Rip-It BBCORs

Yeah but is it better than the mizuno squishy barrel?

Show us a video of your sneaker collection🎉😅

Use the dirty south bats kamo the barrel is huge

This bat is the complete package. Need a different park than Fenway to test a right handed hitters distance.

How stiff is the Icon connector? Goods stiff, or flexible like a zoa or cf?

Theyre expensive but at least the performance and quality back it up. Also people don't have to spend 500 on a bat, go with what you like in your price range etc . Cracks me up seeing people complaining like to play you have to buy the most expensive bat on the market to be good.

It was really funny when Marucci came out with the Cat 9 composite for 500 dollars and it was really bad. It isn’t funny when the 500 dollar two piece composite is possibly by far the best bat in BBCOR.

I can't find the rawlings icon in 33/30! I would greatly appreciate it if you knew where I could get one...or is anyone selling one? Thanks ⚾️

Bro get a hittrax battle between it and the banned 33 meta that would be 🔥🔥🔥

How do you get the hit trax readings in the corner of the video while you’re hitting? I’m trying to make a video like that

I guess longevity is the big question now? Doesn’t have to do much to beat the Voodoo or Goods!

that is insane

You think it's going to get even better with a longer break in period? Or we at the max right now?

Too much $. Pa$$... Great vid as always

How heavy is that 34 icon? Thinking about getting it

I hate that I love how good this bat is. Why couldn't this have somehow been $350? No way I could have afforded this growing up

Can you guys swing the 2019 bbcor Rawlings threat?

at my first red sox game i sat on the green monster

After seeing your usa vs bbcor vs usssa video and seeing the USA bats perform very similar to bbcor, Is it safe to assume the USA icon will be a good bat as well?

Is it the 34/31 weight creating better exit velo compared to the 33/30?

Any reviews on the USSSA-5?

Is it close to bansville?

You should do Rawlings big Barrel vs the voode one

Is there feedback from the barrel (compression on sweet spot)? For example, the Atlas and Goods has such a stiff barrel that you don't really know if you're hitting the sweet spot or not.

Earliest I’ve been my friends each have at least one of the bats each and some have the goods with voodoo it’s always fun to watch bat bros videos especially if it’s a bat I’ve used or seen in person before

Odds on it getting banned, also what’s going to happen when these things really get broken in?

Has there been any rumor of durability issues with it yet?

Dang it!

Didn’t know 2 piece composite bbcor tech could get this hot. Wow It’s either a) gonna b illegal and banned or b) they figured out some tech that no other company has ever used in composite

Me watching his Jordan’s crease on every swing

Love how 2 months ago the Bonesaber Hybrid goes 105+ against The Goods, and gets no love here.

Can u get a voodoo overlord ft used to be my favourite bat wanna see how it compares to some of these bats

Idk why they don't have the rubber taper deal on the Usssa bat

Need an icon vs Bonesaber hybrid comp

Durability? No way anyone should lay out $500 for a bat with such a short track record. We have no idea if it will even last a season. If it's durable, maybe the $500 price tag is worth it.

Can you do a Rawlings 2022 threat bat review

Finally got to a vid early

Put it up against the missle 2!!!!!

Hey I have those Jordan’s he is wearing the same shoes I have

I think will couldn’t make it a 25 with the sweet spot because I thought he was going to give the sweet spot a 10.

did anyone notice that the hittrax was set to fenway?? go red sox

This bat should have gotten a 26 on the bat bro scale. I understand that you don't want to boost a $500 bat into the stratosphere, but from all the evidence you have collected, this bat is in a class of its own. Your score should reflect that. In your glo-stick v icon video, you said the swing weight of the icon was "nearly identical" to the glostick (2:10 mark), which you rated a 6 in your '22 quatro v glowstick video (10:05 mark). And I don't see a reason why the icon shouldn't be a 10 sweet spot. If anything, you got better hits off the hands with the icon rather than the goods. So 10 power, 10 sweet spot, 6 swing weight. I think you need to do one last head-to-head with the icon. Do select pwr/bonesaber hybrid to suss out a 9 vs 10 on sweet spot, and some 4/5/6 bats on swing weight.

And also a comp?! What!?

Still sticking with my CATX😤

does it feel better to have just the one 1.8 mm or the .5 on top of the existing?

u dont have to hit off a tee/front toss first to break it in before machine?

Why were new Icon bats needed? Drability issues like the Glowsitck?

What would the voodoo one 2023 be ranked if it didn’t have all of those durability issues.

I currently swing a 32” 2021 Voodoo One but was looking into getting a new bat what would you recommend?

I love that you genuinely seem disgusted by this bat.

NCAA ban in 5…4…3…2… 😂
