NJPE#7

Mustang, OK

BigstickMan
Pros: Good pop, easy swing, and a large sweet spot.
Cons: Grip is terrible, feels like wood (with out grip or pine tar or tape)
Bat2Ball
Pros: My JV team got this bat and LOVED IT... for one game
Cons: Dont expect it to last long something in side the bat starts to rattle and doesn't pop like it should
yup
Pros: It's only $50.
Cons: I'm pretty sure that Easton put time and money into making sure this was the worst bat on the market. It doesn't have half as much pop as a $20 wood bat. The sweet spot is absolutely tiny. If you hit it anywhere half an inch or more out of the sweet spot the vibration is worse than any other bat I've used. You're better off just spending $5 more and getting a different bat.

Terrell smoochie Wallace
Pros: Hit it on the sweet spot like most Easton bats and It will fly. Good for the price.
Cons: If you don't, you ground out with bad vibration.
Spikes42
Pros: Not enough time to see many. Seems light for -3.
Cons: After a few hits there was already a rattle. Going to attempt to return to Easton; hopefully they honor the return policy.

Pros: The price was good my son really enjoyed it and he even hit a home run with it
Cons:
Reflex is a Great Buy Mr. R parent
Pros: It's 7050 alloy, but we were surprised at the hard line drives coming off this bat. Bought for cage work indoors but this would be fine for regular use, especially in colder weather when you don't want to take chances with your composite bat.
Cons: IMO, this would be a contact hitters preference, a player that hits to all fields but not necessarily a power guy.
good bat for the price Kyle Levii player
Pros: Can hit to the fence but cant hit it over. I have a 5150 custom alloy that i can pop the ball out every pitch. Good bat for the price!
Cons: Cant hit as far as i can with other bats. The sweet spot is small takes a while to break it in
Amazing
Pros: Beautiful looks Great to get through the zone
Cons: Has miniature sweet spot unlike said on bat
great price for performance baseball Fanatic player
Pros: Comes off the bat well but doesnt travel far. Doesnt break easily.
Cons: vibrates badly when it hits the handle
Amazing bat lasts for a long time Elvis player
Pros: I used my reflex for 3 years before I accidentally hit a batting cage coin drop several times and cracked it and afterwards I could still use it and it was still awesome this bat lasts forever I prefer this over the Mako this bat has amazing balance and is extremely quick through the zone I couldn't ask for a better bat.
Cons: None at all
