My husband loves this bat! He’s super picky. But It has great pop and he finally found a bat that wasn’t end loaded for slow pitch.Getter older and my bat speed has slowed down. At first, never used end loaded bat so felt a little heavy. 27.5. Once I got use to it and stopped thinking about, this bat is sweet. The ball reacts off this bat with a serious vengeance. With little effort the ball traveled. This is after 5 swings with the bat. I assume it will get even better with time.As I get older, my power just continues to dip. I just can't turn on it as quickly as I once did but this bat helped me regain a bit of my lost power. If I am going to spend $300 on a bat, it better check all the boxes and this one certainly does. It feels great throughout the swing because it is very well balanced. It has a wide sweet spot meaning I dont have to make perfect contact on every swing. It is worth every penny. Even the color pops when I am at bat.For a Slowpitch bat, this is about as premium as it gets. I've used Easton for many years in multiple sports, with excellent results.Overall, this is an impressive bat, especially for a Slowpitch bat.Here are my impressions:1. Swinging this bat is effortless.2. This is the most well balanced Slowpitch bat I've ever swung.3. The sweet spot on this bat is massive.4. The ball jumps off this bat.5. I love the sound this bat makes when making contact.6. Very little feedback to the hands, especially for a Slowpitch bat.7. It's sized and balanced in a manner where it can be functional for a range of users.In sum:This is absolutely at the top level of what's justifiable in a Slowpitch bat, in my opinion. However, this bat is an absolute joy to use and it's not only very well made, it's exceptionally balanced.If you're serious about Slowpitch, this bat is worth considering.Highly recommended5 starsI ordered this end-loaded “POW” bat in the 34”/25.5oz version. I think it was a very good choice for me. The length is just right, and the very manageable weight allows me to quickly get the bat around to meet the ball and achieve an accurate, speedy, and power-packed swing.As I’m sure you’ve noticed, this isn’t an inexpensive bat, and to be honest, I’m not completely convinced it’s worth its eyebrow-raising price tag. However, with that said, I really do love this bat. It has lots of pop and the ball soars off this bat when I connect with the bat’s generous sweet spot. Furthermore, when I hit the ball with this bat, it doesn’t rattle/sting my hands as much as a lot of other softball bats I’ve used.So, if you’re okay with the price, I don’t think you can go wrong with this bat. It’s definitely a super-premium bat. It performs exceptionally well, and though it’s not all that important, the very colorful comic book style design looks super awesome too.If you have any questions about this Easton slowpitch softball bat, please feel free to ask, and I'll try my best to answer. I hope you found this review helpful.This is an excellent bat. It rockets the ball and has a large sweet spot. Hit in the wrong place and there is very little vibration. Hit in the right place and you can feel and hear it. Very very satisfied. It also looks pretty cool.
