MAKO Savannah player
Pros: This bat has a lot of pop and it is hot out of the box. I have a lot of success hitting lately as my old DeMarini went dead. I've hit more triples this past tournament then I ever had with any other bat. The grip is very comfy and overall the bat feels good.
Cons: The only thing that really concerns me is the handle. Although it is neat to have a rotating grip, I think it teaches bad mechanics. If you have your knuckles lined up how they are supposed to be then the handle wont rotate. Therefore, having a rotating handle is teaching us girls to turn over on the ball.
Softball player jenny player
Pros: Bat has very good pop after buying it, it was worth it. I would buy the bat if I was you
Cons: NO CONS!!!
Coach coach
Pros: bought this bat for my team all the girls have been hitting better with it
Cons:
GREAT BAT Tom parent
Pros: My Daughter loves this bat. Seems to have a lot more pop than her old DeMarini . I spent the extra hundred to help teach her and her teammates good vs bad mechanics and challenge her to keep the handle from rotating. If the handle rotates, BAD, if not then she is doing the correct grip.
Cons: NONE SO FAR.
Great bat JC parent
Pros: one of my players used a demo bat and liked it, the bat is well balanced and has good pop
Cons: why so expensive....
Wont turn. Senior softballer player
Pros: The pop is great, and I love the rotating handle.
Cons: I used a team bat and then decided to buy my own. The bat that I bought, the handle would not turn. If I am paying $500 for a bat that is different for one reason, and that reason isn't valid on the bat I bought. Needless to say, if I were able to get a refund I would.
Softball Mom Softball Mom parent
Pros: I purchased this bat for my daughter. She has always swung the Stealth & will continue to play college ball...so we updated. She said it has good pop but doesn't notice the rotating grip at all. She has excellent batting mechanics and has never had a problem with rolling her wrist. So the grip was not an added bonus for her.
Cons: None...Have always loved EastonBbats!
love it Rosalie player
Pros: has the most amazing pop
Cons: i feel like my dad payed a extra $100 dollars just to get the cool color
Nikki Nicole Hetrick player
Pros: This bat has a lot of pop. The feel of the bat can not be beat.
Cons: Little high priced
Do what is best for YOUR player, ....Great bat! Radbear parent
Pros: Daughter broke both forearms last year at the same time. Was possibly the end of her softball career. Over the winter she did strength training, but wrists were still a concern. After seeing this bat, we purchased it, thinking it would help take some of the strain off her wrist and allow her to come around faster to contact the ball. Boy has it ever!! She has been hitting minimum DOUBLES ever time. The velocity she is getting is incredible and she refuses to try any other bat..NOT EVEN ONCE. She is a hitting leader on her team. There were many detractors, old school coaches and parents , who either didn't understand the technology..or would never give up their daily Lattes to buy there child what they need to succeed. When my daughter steps into the batters box with this very recognizable bat...the other team knows she is serious. This bat has been worth every penny and we are glad we decided on our own to take the risk and try it.
Cons: None so far..other than teammates keep trying to "borrow" it when they come up to bat. [Told my daughter - NO SHARING THIS ONE!]

My concern is the rotating TORQ handle. When the player hits the ball and throws it down to the ground on the dirt, I see dirt getting in the groove of the handle. Has this been tested by throwing the bat on dirt? Will dirt get in and stop the rotation? Genny
