22.4 the cf8 was 21.6 that’s mine in database so one a little over and one a little light. So while still pretty close to sticker it’s heavier than our underweight CF8

My DD just finished her D111 freshman year. She has been a Demarini girl all the way. Problem is, when she was 12 she had the CF5 Insane (the best bat Demarini has made) they have been downhill from there culminating with the piece of junk CFZen. She used it this year and hit .320 but very little pop. We are officially done with Demarini.
Anyone else with feedback on this bat?
My DD got to test the full line of Demarini bats in a cage recently. She gets her pick of any of them. Coming from a 33/23 Easton Ghost, all of the Demaini 33/23s felt too light. The CF was quickly ruled out. She didn't like the balanced feel of the 33/24 Prism. She narrowed her choices down to the FNX in 33/24 or 34/24, and finally settled on the 34/24, based purely on feel in the cage. She hasn't been able to try it against a live pitcher, or even hitting moving balls on a field. so I'm a little apprehensive about actual performance.

Gotcha thanks.
did she ever swing a CF5? We are selling the ghost (never really liked it) to buy one of these hoping it's very similar to the feel of the cf5.
No. My DD was 8-9yo when the CF5 was out. Her first Demaini was a CF6 Sprite. She loved a 33/23 CF8 in 12U, but her heart got stolen by the Ghost, which has been a very good fit for her. She is now playing for a Wilson-only team, and has her choice of any Demarini. She likes the feel of the FNX in the cage, but that's as far as it's gotten.

Was looking at the FNX as my DD needs a new bat. Originally looking at the new CF but wanted to get some more info on this FNX.
Unfortunately, it seems that there aren't a lot of people using it yet.
