All that i can say is that this bat is amazing. Im new to the 375 foot fields and can hit with this bat no problem. when you hit the ball it just flies off the bat and the grip is awesome. I would recommend this bat to anyone.

This bat is amazing for the price i paid for it and you wouldn't even be able to tell its a bbcor bat. The ball explodes off of the bat. It does not take long to break in. I've hit 6 home runs on 375 ft fences and im only 13 years old. I highly reccomend this bat!

im thirteen and i swing this bat with ease and i only weigh110 lbs
it takes a while to break in and there is something rattling in the barrel so i think i might send it in and get the -5 non BBCOR instead. the pop is not so great but i think its just because its BBCOR.

i bought a surge from eastonbaseball.com, it took a while and it didnt come in for 2 months, so i went out and bought a surge at dick's, and then returned the surge from dicks to easton.com because the one i ordered came 1 day later. so what i am saying is i have a renuable coupon for a bat from easton, which new bbcor easton bat is the best out there? thanks, email me at oakmtn141@aol.com

End broke off.

Granted I bought this bat 2nd hand at Play It Again Sports in Littleton, CO, but come on. A 13 year old at the batting cage should not be able to break the end off. $99 used. The end cap shattered into pieces. I'm no expert, but it appears to me that the cap was not made properly, as it had air pockets running around the perimeter, which is where the fractures look like they generated from. It essentially exploded out of the end of the bat. If there is some kind of warranty on this type of poorly made piece, please let me know. david@rockymtnclosets.com Thanks.

I was really nervous about the new bbcor rule, thinking that it would be really bad. My dad bought it for me right before the game and the first at bat i hit a double down the line. It felt the exact same as my composite bat.

THIS THING ROCKS!!

Okay, so I didn’t buy from this site, but I was looking here for it and I found it 65$ cheaper @ my local store.

Before I got this, I used all Easton, due to my habit to use bats for more than one season, and Easton continuously gives high quality bats. I had gotten an SV12 composite my frosh year, and still am using it this season, but I began to look for bbcor bats for my senior and college seasons. Of course I wasn’t about to spend 450$ on a bat like most composites nowadays, so when I found this one for 145$ at my local store I bought it right away. I had been looking for quite some time at bbcor, and most are from 200-350 dollars. I've used this thing in practice, batting cages and twice in a game (we were up by a lot :D) and have hit 2 home runs, a lot of fly and line drives in both games and in practice. My coach is thoroughly impressed, and has already ordered several for the high school team. Although I still use my SV 12 more, I love this bat. Some tips I have if you want this bat are:
-its bbcor, don’t expect a line shot, or homer every time! Break in the bat a bit and learn the sweet spot. I hit .421 last year so I know kind of it is, but not everyone does. Learn over the summer, not during next season!
-buy it cheaper. They’re fractions of the price of composite, but Easton somehow made the bat great, even with the bbcor regulations
-I used/looked at the voodoo, and similar 300$ bats, and found this one up to the same par or better in some cases as these bats, and half the price!
-recommend it to friends, so you don’t have to share this bat next year EVERYONE and their sister is going to want to use THIS BAT!!!!

Cons (?)
-bbcor (obviously)
-a bit light, I like my bats to have some umf to them
-smaller sweet spot (bbcor regulations)

(I got the 34/31, and love it. to date, I’ve gotten a 1.000 batting av. with it, 1 HR., 2 rbi, and gone to bat TWICE!!)
