Newbie and looking at threads lots of great info here. My daughter had a 33/23 2019 Ghost and hit great with it in H.S. and travel but after 8 months it broke. Got a replacement under warranty and her first and only hit (a double in the LC gap) it cracked! Still under warranty she got a 2020 Ghost as a replacement and it swings differently than the 19 to her. She doesn't like it and went back to her old LXT which is dead. She had a hitting lesson last week and demo'd several bats including the FNX. Her instructor had the original version of this bat years ago as a H.S. Sr. and college freshman until it was banned and loved it. I saw immediately the difference in my daughters swing and the ball absolutely flies off the bat. Bought one and she had a college camp this past weekend and my wife texted me and said "that bat is the sh*t" as she was hitting bombs. She has a showcase tournament this weekend in Indiana so I'll let everyone know feedback as I get it.

Bringing back up this post. Finally found a deal on a 33/23 model and thought it may be a bit big for the kid. She's been using it for a couple of weeks and won't give it up. Absolutely a great bat so far. Definitely has the "feel" of a cf5.
I will also add there is this thought going around the internet that mishits will somehow "hurt". I don't think this is accurate at all.....either that or the kid doesn't ever mishit them, lol.
