Ghost X vs CF Zen Dan M coach

Pros: My 13 yr old hit this back to back against his Demarini CF Zen on our field in batting practice. He is not a big kid 5'2" 105 lbs. Hit enough to have a good sample. To our surprize the ghost hit as far as the benchmark Zen. Hit the 255 ft fence for the first time with the ghost. Teammate who is 180 lbs (big kid) and was our Cooperstown HR derby kid has had this bat for 1 yr and no issues with durability

Cons: None except not good for cold weather being composite

The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL18GX58) does not follow the USA standards. This bat is USSSA certified. Easton is correct, the new bats will be released 09/01/2017.
Mick
What is the difference between the SL18GX5 and the SL18GX58? Leary
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 has a 2 5/8'' barrel, where as the SL18GX5 has a 2 3/4'' barrel.
Tori
Other than looks, what are the differences between this bat and the 2017 Easton XL1 Beast? IrishKC
Both bats are very similar. However, what the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL18GX58) provides is a more advanced composite allowing for better vibration reduction.
Mick
When will you be getting the 32" model? Will C.
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 will be coming out in a 32 inch model but at this time we are not sure when that will occur.
Cameron
I bought the drop 5 Ghost. My son is complaining there"s a lot sting to the hands at contact. Is this normal for a new bat? Is there anything I can do to prevent this? I want to make sure I do not have a defect. jay
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 features a two piece design that should limit vibrations a substantial amount. The bat will have some more vibrations through until it is fully broken in due to the composite fibers being stiffer. To properly break in the Easton Ghost X, we recommend taking 150-200 swings playing soft toss or off a tee using real baseballs. Begin swinging at 40% power and work our way up to full strength as you get closer to 200.
Carter
Is this bat end loaded? I am looking for a two-piece end loaded bat and this could be the one if it is end loaded. Goldilocks
Yes, the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 features a two-piece composite design with an end loaded swing weight.
Jason
I'm looking for a new bat and wondering what the difference is between this one and the BBCOR composite Ghost X (-3) I saw on Easton's website. Will Matthews
The biggest difference is in the weight. The BBCOR model will be a drop 3 length to weight ratio where the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL18GX58) is a drop 5 length weight ratio.
Mick
Is this a BBCOR bat? Elf
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat (SL18GX58) is not a BBCOR bat. The BBCOR bats are -3.
Mick
What is the difference between the black Easton Ghost -5 and white Easton Ghost -5? hunt4par
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 will be USSSA certified, or legal for travel ball. The black Easton, 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 USA Baseball Bat: YBB18GX5, will be a a USA certified bat.
Max
For a power hitter that is 13, 6"1 156lbs would you suggest this in a 32/27 or a 2017 Demarini Cf Zen 32/27? sam
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 will offer your player an end loaded swing weight, which is often beneficial for a power hitter. The CF Zen's are balanced bats, which typically tend to benefit contact hitters more as they can control the barrel a little bit better with a lighter swing weight.
Tyler
How do you compare this bat to the 2017 Demarni CF Zen -5? mom2ballers
This bat will compare very similarly to the DeMarini CF Zen as it is a two-piece, fully composite design just like the CF Zen. Both bats will offer high performance and good vibration dampening from the two-piece design.
Kyle J.
What is the difference in this bat for $349 and the other bat, 2018 Easton Beast X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18BX58 for $199? John
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 is a two-piece fully composite bat while the 2018 Easton Beast X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18BX58 is a one-piece fully alloy model. Both bats are end-loaded in swing design. The advantage of the Ghost X is the vibration reduction capabilities from off-centered hits. As for the price difference, two-piece composite bats will always hold a higher price tag due to the cost of the raw materials as well as the additional process that must take place to get the bat manufactured.
Cameron
Is this bat hot out of the wrapper or does it need to be broken in? Mo
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 would benefit from a slight break in of roughly 50-125 swings off the tee or soft toss.
Cameron
Does this bat have a usa stamp? Drew
Unfortunately, the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 is only approved for USSSA play. Easton does make a USA certified Ghost X and you can view that on our site with the following code: YBB18GX5.
Tyler
Do you recommend this bat over the new 2019 Demarini CF Zen? Ron
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58, like the CF Zen, will be a multi-piece fully composite bat. This means that both will reduce vibrations, flex on contact, and require a brief break-in period before reaching peak levels of performance. The main difference between these two top-end models will be that the Ghost is end loaded while the CF Zen is a balanced bat. Typically speaking, end loaded bats will better suit a power hitter while balanced options tend to be more beneficial for a contact hitter. Therefore, it would be tough for me to recommend one over the other without knowledge of your player's skill set.
Tyler
Why is this bat (Easton Ghost X (-5) SL18GX58) no longer available on your website? It says "discontinued." Dave
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 is no longer being made by Easton. The reason why it says "discontinued" is due to the fact we have sold out and can no longer get more in from Easton.
Cameron
Will this bat drop in price anytime soon for the 31 in. model? baseball6
It is certainly possible that the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 will drop in price as we get closer to the release of the 2019 models. However, there is no guarantee that this bat will go on sale.
Tyler
Will the 31 inch model be available again? Anonymous
Unfortunately the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 is a closeout model so we are unable to restock on sizes no longer available.
Cameron
What bats can you recommend in a drop 5 balanced weight? Kevin
The 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58 will be a end loaded model. I would take a look at the DeMarini CF ZEN.
Max
Is this bat considered a balanced bat, medium or end loaded? Tood N.
The 2019 Easton Ghost X Evolution -5 USSSA Baseball Bat: SL19GXE58 will have a pro balance design, which will be a slightly end loaded swing weight.
Max
What is better for a leadoff hitter with some pop, this bat, or the Cat 8? Baseball GOD
Both are great options, but typically speaking, a leadoff hitter will swing composite barrel bats like the 2018 Easton Ghost X -5 Senior League Baseball Bat: SL18GX58.
Tyler
Do you have any 31"/26 oz or 32"/27 oz models coming in stock soon? Niko
No, we will not be getting anymore of these models back in stock as they are no longer being made by Easton, since the 2019 models are now released.
