2018 Easton Ghost

The Ghost is currently only made in a -10 and -9. No drop eights. DD and I will be going to an internet company's warehouse next week during Nationals (only an hour away) to demo a 2018 Xeno 34/26 and a 2018 PXT 34/26. She also wants to swing the Ghost 34/25 but I think that it will be too light. I will let you know what she thinks...

Have you ever thought about slowpitch bats if your daughter is up to 34/26? There are some beasts out there

Are slowpitch bats allowed? I thought that 34/26 were the longest/heaviest allowed...

That's what most slowpitch are...no bats are longer than 34 inches and the majority of sales are 26oz

I could have ordered some drop 8s if I wanted...now, that's not saying they are sitting on shelves. This was another program
due to ship 8/1...so if not out now, a couple days. So close enough I guess.

Really? I haven't seen a -8 anywhere online and even Easton's website only lists a -9 and -10...

ok Core, whats the hottest slow pitch bat at 26 oz?

Here we go...ASA or USSSA? haha

You are right, I was looking at a different Ghost. They have 45 Ghost models now between fp and baseball. They do not have a drop8 fp yet

Im at asanationals. New ghost wouldn't even read on test meter. Didn't pass or fail. Didnothing

I would say there is a tester issue there...haha

I got my Ghost off of a teammate who isn't continuing to play softball in college. I've been using my Ghost in the batting cage since I got mine on Monday. I must say that this has been the best bat that I've ever had in my hands! I love this bat! The sweet spot is huge on this bat. I've hit a few cue shots off the end of the bat. If it happened with any other bat, they would be been foul balls. With this bat, if it were in game I think some of them would have been doubles down the left field line. Even at 33/23, the bat doesn't feel overly heavy even for how small I am even since my growth spurt (I started on here at 4'10"-4'11" 95 pounds. Now I'm 5'2" 115 pounds and have been putting on muscle and bulking up. I've probably put on 5 pounds of muscle and probably 10-15 of that is from eating more and having more in the way of protein shakes and that kind of stuff). But this is definitely going to be my go to bat.
