As we mention above, the Voodoo Insane is an endloaded bat built for strong hitters that like the smoother feel of a two piece composite bat. Many collegiate players with schools that use DeMarini end up using the Voodoo Insane. Smaller hitters that like a hybrid bat, but want a little more of a manageable swing weight, should consider the Voodoo Balanced---which is the sister bat of the Voodoo Insane but with a lighter swing weight. Do note, though, the barrel on the Balanced is smaller than the Insane.
The only difference between the 2017 and 2018 DeMarini Voodoo is the connective piece. In 2017 it was referred to as the D-Fusion handle. The 2018 model has a slimmed down version of the D-Fusion referred to as the 3 Fusion. Less bulk in the connective piece allows DeMarini to use the weight in other places to reinforce performance and durability without effecting swing weight. Otherwise, the bat is the same between 2017 and 2018. This year's model uses the same aluminum barrel and the same composite handle as is found in the 2017 Voodoo Balanced.
More background on the 2018 DeMarini Voodoo Insane can be found by referencing a few places. In particular, we relied heavily on our 2017 Demarini Voodoo Insane Review. As well, our bat reviews section might give you a few more ideas as to details behind hybrid bats. Off this site we think past user reviews on Amazon are mildly helpful. As well, DeMarin's bat site might be useful to find sizing and comparison options.
