Easton ADV 360 -10 USSSA Youth Baseball Bat (-5 Drop) | 2 5/8" Barrel | Lightweight Alloy Construction for Power Hitting | Perfect for Little League & Youth Baseball Tournaments

I usually don't write reviews, and I take other's review with a grain of salt, but you'll want to read this one.Purchased last season (2020): This bat was great when we first got it. Our 11-year-old son's county league baseball season was cut short to I think about 6-8 games total. All but one tournament was canceled for his tournament team. He played fall ball for a total of 10 games. Our family takes good care of our bats and don't let the younger siblings mess around with them, and we DON'T allow poor sportsmanship with hitting the bat in the ground for a strike-out, etc. At the end of last season, there wasn't anymore "ting" so to speak when hitting a ball. We weren't overly concerned at that time.This season (2021) - he just started with 2 - 30-min batting practices and 3 tournament team practices which consisted mostly of fielding with some batting rotation. I don't have pictures yet, but the barrel of the bat is cracked everywhere! I've never seen a bat like this before, and we've purchased plenty. It's absolutely horrible. Reminder that due to covid, last year's season started late, was cut short, and many games/tournaments canceled and this still happened less than one year later. I would NOT RECOMMEND THIS BAT!Got this bat for my son for his birthday in March.... he broke it in and started practicing with it. Then covid-19 hit so he hasn’t used it in a game yet because all our tournaments have been canceled. Seems to have a ton of pop. I chose this over the CF because of reviews saying it’s got about the same pop but better durability. Hopefully we will find out sooner then later.So this was actually a demo bat which I didn’t know that. But it came with the demo sticker on it.I was actually sent the wrong size bat and for the cost of over 300 I would have expected something better from a seller.Great -5 bat for 13u baseball. Helps get them ready for bbcor. Bat has lots of pop, balanced swing.This bat is a great bat with a lot of pop and a big sweet spot. But you'll need 3-4 to get through 1 season. We ordered a 32/27 in February that had the connecting piece separate after 6 weeks or so of batting practice. Easton replaced it for free (which cost $30 for a box, packing material, and shipping) and the replacement bat arrived in time for the opening game of the season in Early April. But in mid May the replacement bat had cracked. If you buy one, I would only use it in games and you might be able to get a full season out of it.Être inutilisable après seulement 8 mois pour un bâton de 450$ je trouve ça déplorable.
