Easton Beast X -5 USA Baseball Bat: YBB18BX5

Pros: extreme pop and duribility with a great feel to it

Cons: none

Pros: awesome pop

Cons: none really

Pros: Looking for a great bat thats hot out of the wrapper and you don't want to spend $400. you will not be disapointed. great bat to transition to full size field, end loaded, good grip, very little vibration. great pop of the bat.

Cons: none to date. with all the new bats we all need a season to play on them. only used in batting practice.

Pros: My son absolutely loves this bat. He said it has a great feel, as if you're not holding a heavy bat. He barely swung the bat and the ball hit the back fence (almost a homerun). It's not as heavy as we thought and very smooth swing for a power hitter like my son. We liked the price also.

Cons: The bat does have a bit of a sting, but nothing too crazy. My son used a two-piece bat before this one and says he does feel the sting more with this one-piece bat.

Pros: This has become our team go to bat. Same great quality you can expect from an Easton bat

Cons: None so far

Pros: Great feel,little to no vibration even if you miss the sweet spot, tons of pop, sweet sound.

Cons: none so far

Pros: tons of power my son has hit two out already great pop of bat huge sweet spot this bat hits better than his composite bats

Cons: none

Pros: This bat has a lot of pop my son hit a homerun in his first tournament with this bat! i definiteley recommend this bat for kids who are can get the bat through the zone.

Cons: a little bit of vibration when you hit te ball of the end cap

Pros: This bat has a ton of pop if your kid is on the more powerful side this is a great bat, and the price is amazing. I recently bought this bat fir my don and he hit a homerun with this bat in the first game of his tournament!!

Cons: it has a little but of vibration if you hit the ball of the end cap but overall great bat!!!

Pros: this bat is great my son has hit 5 home runs with this bat

Cons: it is very heavy can't use it with the faster pitchers

Pros: This year's new standard put us in a quandary. We tried 2 other bats , but they just seemed to be less than expected. Low pop, small sweet spot, lots of vibration. And my son put dents and even bent on bat. So we tried the Beast. My son has used this bat for 3 weeks now in competition. It has more pop and he is really driving the ball. He is 12, stands 5'7", weighs 140, swings a 32 inch Drop 5. He has hit 4 over the fence in the last 6 games along with 3 doubles that traveled over 190 feet on the fly. His confidence with this bat has changed his whole attitude at the plate. The bat has a generous sweet spot and and is very forgiving.

Cons: A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for when it comes to a good quality bat that meets the new standards.

Pros: I waited to hear about the new bats before buying one. I heard this one outperformed many of the composite bats. It lived up to the hype! My son hit 6 balls over the fence...unfortunately 1 was in team practice, 4 were practicing with me, and 1 was a rocket in a game that was foul over LF. Aside from that, the weight helped the balls fly off the bat and he had a great season.

Cons: Occasionally had a little vibration, but the pros outweighed that.
