Easton does it again! Ben Perez Parent

Cons: None!
Ghost x -5 review Jack Player
Pros: Great pop, hot bat, doesn’t need much breaking in, looks great
Cons: None so far
Great bat Bruce Kook Parent
Pros: Great value. Plenty of pop.
Cons: none
The Real Deal Jose Benitez Coach
Pros: Bat is very end loaded, it has a wood bat feel and design. This is as close as it gets to simulating your wood bat practices and game use bats. The pop on the bat is phenomenal. It does have a smaller barrel then most but like I said it’s true to a wood bat design. If you miss hit you week know, if you square the ball up it will reward you.
Cons: None to be frank.
Amazing bat for the price. Vincent Boswell Coach
Pros: This bat has such a great feel. I don't think the sweet spot is that big but it sure seems like it. My 9 year old is absolutely crushing it. The catches on his team is a big boy and is just annihilating the ball with this bat.
Cons: It is heavy so against the faster pitchers it's tough for my little guy to get it around in time so he has a lighter bat for that situation.
Insane Pop Kaleb Wilkey Player
Pros: This bat is amazing. Once you break it in there is no -5 bat that can beat this monster.
Cons: The only bad thing is that you can get some stingers using this bat if it's not broken in yet.
pretty good bat austin Player
Pros: has really good pop at the beginning
Cons: loses pop towards the end
Great bat for 12U Tom Coach

Cons: Nothing
Early in season, but kid loves it Kevin Parent

Ghost x Mason Player

Great bat! John Parent

Cons: None.

Cons: The barrel is a little small
Great bat william Coach
Pros: Sounds pretty dang good when you hit it on the barrel and seems pretty durable so far.
Cons: Is taking quite a bit of hits to break it in but so far so good not hitting bombs with it yet.
Great bat Angie Roach Parent
Pros: we have only had this bat for a few weeks now. So far my son 12 year old son loves everything about it. He says it feels great and has hardly noticed the difference between the drop 10 and drop 5.
Cons: Havent had it long enough to find any cons. We have been getting a lot of swings in the batting cages and if something negative comes up. I’ll update my review.

Great bat! Jeff Player
Pros: Great pop and will go a long way if you hit it well
Cons: Need to be careful it may crack
So far so good. Jason Coach
Pros: Lots of pop. Little to no vibration.
Cons: None so far.
Great pop! Kyuss Parent
Pros: Pop , little to no vibration. Very endloaded feel to feel like a bbcor bat . My son is using bbcor bats for middle school , but wanted a usssa bat to use in 13u travel ball for more pop . He likes the pop of this bat and still feels like his bbcor bat he uses in middle school .
Cons: Short barrel . This bat has unbelievable pop , but the short barrel will tell on you when you miss the sweet spot . I think the short barrel is only on the drop 5 model of this bat .
