2011 Easton Synge vs 2014 Worth Eclipse

My daughter is 7years old. She is 46" tall and weighs 44lbs. She is in a 8u coach pitch rec league. We are replacing her 26/16 bat. Her cousin gave us an 2011 Easton Synge 27/15.59461209699937184035915 She swings it pretty well but it does seem a bit awkward. Would it be better to get a new Worth Eclipse or try the Easton for awhile? Is the Worth any good or should I be looking at something else? Thanks

What seems awkward about the Synge?

Personally, I have been fairly pleased with the Synge as a mid-level composite bat. My 9yo DD used a 29/17.5 Synge for 8U All-Stars and 10U Fall ball with good success. My 15yo swings an older 32/20.5 Synge, and won't let me buy her something new.

Also...Welcome to DFP!

The Miken Halo Light's are very good bats for those ages also.

I would choose that over the Eclipse

At 11, DD hammered the ball with a yellow 32" Synge. Worth may be a better bat, but at 7, she's probably not generating enough energy to see the difference.
Awkward might be a sizing issue, but it could just be that she's 7.
