So - I’m wondering if the prism she’s swinging is a dud.
She has not experienced anything close to the ghost or as others have suggested.
Even doing a side by side comparison.
�� guess I need to “break” the bat and get an exchange.

How big is your daughter and how many swings you have on it? Seems the bigger, harder swinging girls have better luck compressing the ball??? The compression tests on the bats are on opposite ends of the spectrum. My 14DD is 5'9' 215lbs and has a very high swing speed.

DD is 13 5’10” 156lbs. Her ghost exist speed last year (July) was 60mph. Not sure where she’s at now.
The bat has had minimum 200 swings. Maybe we need to get to 300plus.

Wasn’t overly impressed with it in the beginning but has been coming alive as of late. Just hitting BP real softballs to wake it up. And now we noticed a crack. And for what it’s worth she is 16,5’4” and a 130 lbs, 70 exit speed 75F5609D-FEB4-49FA-988A-43172F7ECBE6.jpg

You shouldn't need to be bigger for this bat to produce. Has nothing to do with size and its not how these type bats work. These bats
aren't just a thick composite wall that needs to be hit hard to flex.

The old composite bats...yes (atleast to get them going). PXT...yes. Ghost, Prism, LXT...yada yada...no.

Its a newly produced bat, so could be a bad one off the line. Who knows and not my concern.

I don't know if this is legit or a known thing, but I saw it on FB from someone talking about preorders for dual stamp prism. I know there's some distaste for Demar and LS on here, but I hadn't seen anyone post about an imminent dual stamp prism. My daughter is loving her drop 11 demar and I imagine a drop 10 will be our next bat so this is something I'll be watching for later this year. Note the $399.95 price. See if this attachment works...

Saw this as well on FB. If real, looks like maybe a drop 11 dual stamp prism coming in early June.
