Same thing as the drop 10s...you're looking an ounce over. So a 30/19 will be 20oz or a tad more.
31/20s are here now as well

My daughters 2020 ghost 30/19
Weighs 20.3 oz. but the bat swings different than her 30/19 gold ghost which weighs around 20.5.
Barrel is a little longer, has a better balance point, and sweet spot is larger.

Yes sir...the bats aren't a sledgehammer feel like previous Eastons before the Ghosts, even though they are overweight.
Help out a guy that doesn't really care, but who's OCD is going crazy....
If all the Ghosts always run +/- an ounce heavy, why do they sell them as a weight that is never correct? I could almost understand it if the 30/19 was sometimes 19.8, other 18.6, etc. But if they are pretty much always actually 30/20+, label them 30/20.

Most bats aren't at sticker weight...they come off a line. Not hand made by individuals that can adjust each bat.
When dealing with new bats now that have inner components...its not hard to be an ounce over. A half ounce
or ounce is just very easy. Epoxy can add a half ounce without even thinking about it. The hollow bats
are a little easier to be closer.
Eastons have run heavy for years and years as many other bats are. Not a new thing. I had a Worth 454 fp that
was 2.5 ounces over. Most Worth 2Legits were over an ounce. The Quatro Endloads are an ounce.
Most drop11 LS bats are way overweight and their 10s are over. Most bats in general will run atleast a half ounce over or more.
That's why some people will just adjust what weight they buy, that's all. And a bat being overweight doesnt
really mean its a endload tank anymore like the old days. And I'm not saying its great, more kinda like it is
what it is.

I always weigh mine different ways. Total weight, then small end on the scale (barely on the edge of scale), then big end. You can get a % of weight small to big end to help determine how end loaded it is.
I guess for you there are issues, but havent heard anything from anybody else beyond the occasional
breakage
