I was looking at the NCAA approved softball bat list and noticed that Easton's as well as Louisville Slugger/Demarini's 2017 lineup's were already listed. I imagine it is because this is the time of year the big bat companies start getting their new lineups to their bigger college clients. If you pay attention to Twitter Easton has tweeted about delivering new bats to Alabama and UCLA. The one thing that jumped out at me is that the 2017 Easton's do not list a Mako model. They seem to be going back on the Stealth models. They list a model called the Hyperlite as well as the Stealth Retro and the Stealth Flex with the Hyperlite and Stealth Flex being offered in Torq versions. I was watching the Alabama/Mississippi State game last night and noticed one of Alabama players was already using a Stealth Retro. I also saw a Stealth Flex and got this picture. I'm looking forward to hearing more about Easton's new line up.
