No experience here personally, but a buddy of mine here in town says his DD is hitting tape measure shots with an end loaded one-piece Mizuno, she's using a 34" -8.
Same here- the hitters using the 1 piece Miz are the players trying to hit the ball otf.I have seen several colleges sponsored by Mizuno where the ladies are swinging the one piece over the power carbon.
Because Easton's Unlimited has the same tech inside as all their Ghosts, only diff is that its one piece...meanwhile, The Mizuno Carbon1 is hollow like their Carbon2 so its cheaper to produce.Pretty sure there is someone on this thread that could provide a sweet deal on those.
I also find it a bit ironic that Easton has made a one-piece as one of their highest priced bats, while Mizuno has had theirs in use for a while and at pretty reasonable prices. I have seen several colleges sponsored by Mizuno where the ladies are swinging the one piece over the power carbon.
i'm pretty sure my dd's GA 33/23 came in right at 23.8. Same size xeno 23.7 i believe.

DD used low drop bats her entire career until college. When Ghost came out she swung a -10 until the low drops came out and then she swung 33 -8 Ghost throughout high school.
She is a college senior now and can hit the ball over scoreboards but she is swinging 34/24 Xeno’s and LXT’s. She has never hit the ball as far as she does now. Her mechanics are different and she has 3 plus years of strength and athletic performance training now so who knows how much the bat matters.
I’ll tell you this: If I could go back and do it over, I would skip the low drop and build on explosiveness early in swing. She and my older dd got away with heavier bats because they had super fast hands but seeing the ball longer would have been worth doing. And we could have been closer to a no stride swing at an early age. That would have been worth doing.
I really think as softball dads we fuss waaaaaaay too much about the bats our DD’s use. I did it a lot. It was misdirected energy.
I love this paragraph. Most D1 college girls swing 34-24 bats. Why? They need the extra plate coverage afforded to them by the 34" bat. They also are so strong and mechanically sound that their swings just make the ball explode off the bat.She is a college senior now and can hit the ball over scoreboards but she is swinging 34/24 Xeno’s and LXT’s.

According to the database on here a lot of the older Xenos were almost an ounce over sticker. Not sure if that has changed for the newer ones.You might want to weigh again. A Ghost and Xeno of the same length/drop will not weigh the same. About an ounce difference.
