Amazing bat Joe farlorney parent
Pros: I love this bat it has great pop good vibrtaion best bat ever
Cons: Amazing
Surprising Daniel Morehead player
Pros: Great feel, great durability. I was surprised on the pop from an aluminum bat. Great Price??
Cons: It's aluminum.
Really good bat Tanner player
Pros: I highly recommend this, I personally love the feel of one piece aluminum, it's got great pop, and a huge sweetspot, it feels more balanced than the Mako
Cons: None
Worst vibrating bat I have ever hit. Blair Foster parent
Pros: This solid piece of aluminum is very durable
Cons: The vibration is so bad even on slightly miss hit balls that my son was unable to hold the bat again for approximately one half of an hour. I tried it myself as his father and had the same result , very painful.
meap meap player
Pros: meap
Cons: meap
Good pop Mike R parent
Pros: Makes the ball travel farther. My 11 y.o. son is a big kid, 5'6" 150 lbs and we do our BP with a heavy wooden bat and then switch out to the XL3, XL3 adds easily 30-50+ more feet of distance, which in a little league field is easily out the park.
Cons: not any - only if you consider feedback a con, like hitting the ball at the very end of the barrel will sting but thats about it.
Great Bat Edwards player
Pros: good all around bat
Cons: none
Jeter

Best bat in the world Griffin chaplin player
Pros: It has great pop and is a good bat I prefer this bat to any body
Cons: When you hit a way to outside pitch it stings a little bit without batting gloves
This bat is great Trevor Dima player
Pros: This bat has a truck load of pop and isn't expensive at all. The aluminum barrel is light, for faster swing speed. Great bat overall. Equal to the Mako. Also has a great grip.
Cons: A lot of sting, but other than that nothing I don't like
Bat dented Jake player
Pros: Good bat. Nice swing speed . good amount of pop
Cons: I'm 14 and am in my first year of babe ruth, Me and my dad recently bought this bat. It dented in a few months. It now has like 3 dents.
Great Bat Justin Mariani player
Pros: Lots of pop gos far . I won the championships with this bat walk off homerun in Little League
Cons: None
best bat ever Mr. Baseball player
Pros: Has great pop and a giant sweet spot.
Cons: None
great bat Tony F parent
Pros: My son's Demarini Voodoo Overlord FT was a great preforming bat, but lost pop quickly. It lost pop the week of my son's state tournament. My son was the biggest hitter on his team. we needed a bat ASAP and I didn't want to deal with breaking in a composite with only a day or two to do so. I selected this bat as it was slightly heavier than the Demarini. This more of an end loaded bat than Demarini. This bat has a significantly large sweet spot compared to the Demarini. This bat is a one piece aluminum, so I was concerned there would be more sting than the Demarini since the Demarini is a two piece hybrid, but my son surprisingly complained of less sting. My son did notice is a slighlty heavier bat, however he did say it has a smoother swing through. I noticed his bombs went about the same distance as the Demarini when it was still hot, but the biggest difference i noticed was in his line drives, which were all shots. Demarini is great bat, but this Easton is better and not as expensive
Cons: NONE
Great Find. Mike Perry parent
Pros: Tons of pop right out of the box. This bat came as part of a bat pack with a mako, and now we use the mako for infield practice. Great price.
Cons: None so far.
Great Bat Cal Forde player
Pros: Just an overall great bat.
Cons: none
Awesome bat, great value Tony parent
Pros: Excellent bat. End loaded but smooth swing through. Lots of pop. I noticed on the big bombs the ball traveled slightly further than the last bat, however the line drives were more frequent and were all shots. This bat is on par with other bats in higher price range, great for power hitters.
Cons: It is a one piece aluminum so there is some sting. For a single piece aluminum it's pretty tame but compared to a two piece bat, you'll definitely feel the difference. Tee work and soft toss, you won't feel a thing, but on the miss hits off the machine or kid pitch will let you know. Thankfully, this bat has a huge sweet spot, on par with other Eastons, allowing more room for error.
It's a very good bat ??? Younghoon Kim player
Pros: 1.It's pops very well 2.It's good to hit homeruns
Cons: If the ball doesn't hit the bat's midde it stings alot.
BIG DISAPPOINTMENT unhappy parent parent
Pros: great pop
Cons: after pitching to my 6 year old two evenings, the bat has 4 big dents. very disappointed with this product. it is trashed.
Easton XL3 Youth Bat George R. parent
Pros: My grandson is just turning 11 and he loves this XL3. Good grip, balance, and great pop.I was going to get him a Mako, but he thinks this bat works just as good.
Cons: No complaints so far.
BEST BAT AND DEAL I HAVE EVER GOTTEN!! parent14 parent
Pros: everybody says this bat dents easily but it doesn't,Just do not hit dimple balls with it, the vibration is a little painful but it does not sting for more than 3 seconds, MASSIVE sweet spot, AMAZING pop, GREAT DURABILITY,SHOTS on line drives, Overall best bat i have ever gotten, also, this is an AMAZING price, other models like the mako are so OVERPRICED while this only costs about $100.00.
