Victus brought the Vandal's signature look and feel to the USA class with a one-piece alloy barrel and a carbon end cap that keeps the swing ultra-balanced. It is a light, lively single-wall bat for contact and speed hitters.

Why this score: The ultra-balanced swing weight is the defining strength and scores highest, with durability close behind for a one-piece alloy. Feel is solid. Sweet spot and raw power land a notch below the premium composite USA bats, which is honest for a single-wall alloy at this price.

Our Review

The 2021 Vandal USA is Victus's USABat-standard youth bat, a one-piece alloy build with a ring-free, multi-variable-wall barrel and the brand's carbon-composite end cap that pulls weight out of the tip for the ultra-balanced swing the Vandal line is known for. The single-wall alloy is hot right out of the wrapper with no break-in, and the light, quick feel suits contact and speed hitters who want to drive the barrel through the zone rather than muscle it. It is a stiff, connected one-piece feel, so off-center contact gives more feedback than a two-piece composite would, and pure top-end power trails the bigger composite USA barrels. But as a durable, good-looking, no-wait alloy bat at a sensible price, the Vandal USA is an easy recommendation for a younger hitter who prizes bat speed.

Pros & Cons
