Easton Ghost advanced in 8U

[Webbtown]

I ended getting DD who 7 the Demarini Prism but came close to getting her the Ghost Advanced. What is the odds a 7 year old contact hitter cracking a Ghost? Seen a couple girls in 8U with them and just wondered.

More likely at the young ages IMHO and my observations. They tend to break when you miss hit, and more inexperienced batters have more miss hits.

Our team of 14U all use Ghosts and pound on them daily. Very few broken bats.

Also, b/c they're 7 and 8 year olds, not only will they mishit more, they will drop it on the concrete, they will hit a metal fence post with it, their teammates will step on it, they will throw it, and drag it in the parking lot. But that extra 2 mph of exit velo...so sweet.
