  • Pros: Very durable and feels good in the hands. Decent pop out of the wrapper.
  • Cons: Long break in time, lots of vibration if you miss the sweet spot, feels a lot like swinging a wood bat prior to break in.

  • Pros: I've only used this at the batting cages so far (leagues start in 5 days). So far I really like the pop off this bat. Hits off the handle are not rewarded but the sweet spot is large enough that even an old guy like me (58) should be in there most of the time.
  • Cons: None so far.

  • Review by: Joe
  • Pros: Great pop right out of wrapper. I was hitting batting practice and I had to ease up because I put 2 of my first 3 swings over the 250 fence without trying. The bat only had maybe 30 swings on it at the time. The best part is I only pad $70 for it. The local sporting goods store had it ON SALE for $140.

  • Pros: Works really well, people liked using it during our games. It also has a nice bounce off it.
  • Cons: The grip is thin, gave me a blister. But I ended up buying a grip that I wrapped over the original grip and it the grip works great, no more blisters.

  • Pros: So far , so good. Let my teammates use a couple nights per week for co-ed leagues. Purchased about a month ago and haven’t had much use yet, but all signs lead to a very quality bat for years to come. Well worth the $80 after shipping.
  • Cons: Noticeable feel when missing sweet spot, but nothing you won’t find in any given bat. No real negatives, just not a 5 star bat.

  • Pros: The Price is Great, I picked this up to play a U-Trip Tournament which hardly ever play so I didn’t want to pay $300 , and I play league which use ASA. It has turned out to be a big surprise, at first it was really stiff ,but the bat control was incredible I was able to place the ball really well and after maybe 100 swings it’s really opened up, with the 44/375 ball the league uses playing the championship games I went 6-7 4 doubles 2 bombs (Hr) and one single which turned out to be the hardest ball I hit of the night and the one the teammates talke the most about. I highly recommend this bat for anyone looking for a legit bat at a great price. I haven’t really use Easton much in the past but I am thinking of trying their Senior bats as a result of the performance of this bat
  • Cons: During the Breakin period balls hit off center had some pretty bad vibrations

  • Pros: I'm a girl. The bat swings nice. I've made some solid hits. Nice and cheap. Others girls on the team use it.
  • Cons: The bat does not help if you don't hit the sweet spot. Straight up dinkers. Obviously know how to hit, just saying the bat doesn't have that extra pop.

  • Pros: I purchased this bat as a BP just because of the price, but it actually turned out to be a really good bat for the price. Once is it broken in it has a sweet pop to it. If you are a seasonal player on a budget this is the bat for you, especially if you are a place hitter. I would recommend this bat for sure oh and it has a warranty.
  • Cons: The only thing bad is that it takes a couple hundred cuts before it breaks in and opens up but once it does standby to hit scuds.

  • Pros: You can't beat this bat for the pric . The bat had really good pop right away. One of my teammates and I were hitting beautiful line drive singles at our first practice with it. At the second practice I was hitting fly balls to our outfielders and I hit 3 of the first 4 over the fence and the other was to the warning track. I had to shorten my swing to keep them in the park.

  • Pros: Bat is very nice although I think it's top heavy. I thought being balance meant the weight distribution was even top to bottom.otherwise it's all good. Still in a break in mode.
  • Cons: Same as above

    Verified Purchaser
  • Pros: Honestly the best composite bat under $100. The ball jumps off the sweet spot. Swings very balanced and has a ton of control through the zone. It is perfect for rec ASA play. It's nice and durable so it can handle all sorts of balls. I would highly recommend, especially if you are willing to give it some break-in time.
  • Cons: It has some feed back if you don't square it up and it needs 200-300 swings to really open up. I think it swings a touch light. I got a 28 oz and it swings more like a 27 oz.

  • Pros: I paid $80 for the bat and honestly you can't beat it for the money. It is a nice, balanced bat and it gets the job done. I bought an endloade 2019 Easton Fire Flex 3 after this one and I will say say that the end loaded bat puts about 20 more feet on the ball. I love Easton bats!

  • Review by: Larry
  • Pros: Its definitely not balanced, not sure why it is classified as one. I've put over 400 swings on this and it literally is still the same as day 1. Hasn't gotten worse so that's good, it was bought to be used as a BP tank so it is serving its purpose. Cheapest composite I could find online.
  • Cons: Break in period might be 1000+ swings at this point, I'm not a smaller guy and I do not hit the ball soft so I'm becoming more interested in the potential once it does open up. 400-450 swings in so far, we'll see.

  • Review by: Bruce
  • Pros: DURABILITY: 4,700+ swings on it currently and still going, very minor webbing starting to show but that is recent (maybe swing 4,500ish). Exit speed is there when hit on sweet spot. PRICE: Can't beat it for a dual stamp name brand composite bat.
  • Cons: VIBRATION: Feedback is tremendous, some might like this, not a huge fan. SMALL SWEET SPOT: 12" barrel feels like an 8".

    Verified Purchaser
  • Pros: Bought this for my wife and her women's slow pitch softball team. Got to say the wife's hits have improved. Her old bats where dead and just didn't pop the ball out. This bat changed that for sure. She gets a great pop and hits to out field almost everytime now. Others players have tried it and continue to use it rather then thier own bats so seems to be a great success.
  • Cons: Stings the hands. Looking to get better grip tape.

  • How does this bat do with 52/300 balls?
  • Asked by AJ
  • It does very well!
  • Answered by Mike
  • Is this considered a single wall design? Able to use in a single wall league?
  • Asked by Nate
  • Composite barrel bats are generally not considered single wall and each league kind of makes their own rules about it. It would be best to confirm with your league prior to purchase.
  • Answered by Mike
