I'm looking for a bat for my 10YO. Not wanting to break the bank I came across an Easton Stealth for about $150.00. Looking to see if it's worth it?

Thanks
Dave

What brand and size does she swing right now? Does it feel comfortable and allow her to have good bat speed? Just trying to get a comparison.

My first thought is try to find a used Demarini CF (-11) for around $100. If she swings a 30 or 31, Dicks has the CF ZenNIW with warranty right now for $165 plus tax. Good deal.

As for the stealth, I assume you are talking the 17 or 18 stealth flex, most didn't think much of them and $150 is high. I bought one over a year ago new for $120. We actually thought the ball came off of it pretty good, but It swings like a easton...heavy which ultimately at the time lead my kid away from it. Will weigh 1 to 1.5 ounces over what it says. A CF will weigh exactly what it is supposed to.

SPC Sports is unloading all of their 2019 Demarini CF-XDs on eBay. New in wrapper with warranty. Averaging about $100 a bid. Might want to go after a 31/21. Adjustable knob can be set to either 30", 30.5", or 31". Very balanced with a long barrel.

There are so many deals on bats right now that I think you could do better, but its whatever your daughter likes to swing.

Sorry. I'm not a fan of the Stealth. It is what I would consider a middlin' bat and overpriced at $150. You can do better on higher quality bats IMO. I'll echo others on finding a bat your DD likes to swing.
