What is the quick review?
The 2024 Victus Pencil, available in USSSA and USA models, is a one-piece alloy bat built for hitters who want a balanced, easy-swinging one-piece feel with less sting on mishits. It’s a value-forward option for players who do not need a two-piece composite feel but still want a more comfortable knob and a fun look. For the BBCOR version, check out the 2024 Victus Pencil Hybrid.
What models and sizes are available?
Pencil is built on the Vibe-style one-piece chassis with a sting-dampening knob concept shared across the Victus/Marucci family. The idea is simple: a light, balanced one-piece that feels more comfortable in the hands than many traditional alloys. The “model choice” here is mostly certification (USSSA vs USA) and picking the drop that fits your strength.
How is it built?
This bat features a one-piece aluminum construction, providing a traditional swing feel that's balanced for all hitter types, complemented by an ergonomic handle for enhanced control. Its technology includes a vibration-reducing knob, a high-performance alloy for durability, and a ringless barrel with variable wall thickness for a flexible sweet spot. It has a 2 5/8" barrel diameter in USA and a 2 3/4 in USSSA.
How does it compare?
This is the first year of the Victus Pencil bat although, as we state above, the Pencil is a recreation of the Vibe.
Bottom line
Pencil is a straightforward, value-forward one-piece alloy with a comfortable knob feel and a balanced swing. If you like the Vibe-style chassis and want a fun look in USA/USSSA, it’s an easy bat to recommend.
