The Easton Ghost X Hyperlite holds its ground with its focus on lightweight design and swing speed, making it especially suitable for younger players or those looking to improve bat speed. While the Louisville Slugger Meta boasts a more advanced vibration-dampening system, and the DeMarini CF Zen offers a more balanced swing weight, the Ghost X Hyperlite excels in rapid swing speed and comfort.


### Progression of the Easton Ghost X Hyperlite series

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

 
**2018** **-** **[Ghost X Hyperlite](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/ghost-x-hyperlite/l681&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1709920236144542&usg=AOvVaw0nOBKEVKMAWHPAYKwmVL1t) (Initial Release)**
- EXACT Carbon for improved barrel performance and reduced vibration. 
- Hyperlite composite engineering focuses on an ultra-lightweight feel for faster swing speeds. 
- New SPEED CAP for enhanced flexibility and responsiveness. 
- One-piece composite design provides a smooth, comfortable feel throughout the swing. 
- LIZARD SKINS™ grip for superior hand comfort. 


 **2019 -** **Updated Versions/Models**
- Continued focus on lightweight design for quick bat speed. 
- Further enhancements to the EXACT Carbon composite material to improve vibration damping. 
- Refined SPEED CAP design for better barrel flexibility and sound. 
- Maintained the use of LIZARD SKINS™ grip for optimal hand comfort and control. 


***Easton hasn't explicitly named a series as "Ghost X Hyperlite" beyond 2019, transitioning to new lines and names while keeping the core idea of innovating lightweight and high-performance bats. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)  

**PROS**



* My 8-year-old son finds the bat comfortable, well-balanced, and lightweight, with a great grip and pop.
* My child enjoys using it. It has a satisfying sound when hit solidly, but it lacks pop due to being a USA bat.
* A little heavy for a six-year-old, but it's a good bat for raking when choking up. Great value for closeouts!
* 

**CONS**



* After using this bat in two games, my son found it disappointing as the ball didn't travel far, likely due to its weight.
* If you're looking for extreme pop and exit speed, this may not be the best option for you.
* I didn't notice much of a difference in how the ball came off this bat compared to my son's $75 bat.


### **Certifications**: 

USSSA, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

This USA bat is designed for little league or a pony leagues. It won't be a very high-performance bat and, in general, is designed for safety. Typically, your little leaguer, who uses the USA stamp, is a player at an entry-level ability. With that said, the Ghost X Hyperlite was one of the best available USA bats. But any USA bat is going to be a mediocre performer overall. The Ghost X Hyperlite is very lightweight and very easy to swing. Smaller players do well with it.

Easton ADV1 baseball bat is part of Easton's Project 3 Series and is designed for youth and college players.

Easton's deep-roots and commitment to technological advancement have made their bats some of the most revered and sought-after in the game. The Easton ADV1 bat is designed to offer young players an unprecedented combination of power, speed, and control that sets a new benchmark in the youth baseball category.

* **Speed Cap™:** Enhances the flexibility and responsiveness of the barrel while creating a more pleasant sound on impact.
* **One-Piece Composite Construction:** Offers a solid, consistent feel across the bat, enabling young players to swing with confidence and precision.

### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Solo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/solo/l7816) and the [Marucci Cat 9 Composite](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat9-composite-3/l164870)

The Easton ADV1 distinguishes itself with its innovative Ultra-Lite Launch Composite Technology, aimed at providing youth players with a bat that increases their swing speed and maximizes their hitting power. While the Louisville Slugger Solo is known for its ultra-balanced swing weight that maximizes swing speed, and the Marucci Cat 9 Composite boasts a more responsive barrel with a multi-directional composite material, the Easton ADV1's unparalleled combination of speed, power, and control, thanks to its unique set of technologies, positions it as the premier choice for youth players aiming to elevate their game to the highest level.


### Progression of the Easton ADV1 Baseball Bat

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* After extensive research, we found the perfect bat for our 10-year-old. It boosted his confidence and impressed his teammates. We recommend avoiding two-piece composite bats as they don't last long. 
* Bought this bat for my son playing in the minors. Great balance and pop. Added taper to the knob, and he loves it.
* The crack of the bat is sweet, didn't sting, very light for a 30 inch, grip is comfortable. 

**CONS**



* After about two weeks, noticed the sound and feel was different on contact. Inspected the bay and found a small fracture/crack.
* The bat feels hard, but there is also a ton of sting.
* Cracked within the first couple games. 


### **Certification**: USA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The Easton ADV1 is a great entry-level bat that performs at a high level for USABat Certification. A composite bat that is a balanced lightweight bat that will perform for any hitter contact or power. For someone who is required to use USABat Certification this bat is going to be great for those higher-level players within USABat certification. The lightweight composite allows all kids to have the confidence to compete with the better pitchers who may throw faster.

### Top competitors comparison: The [Voodoo One](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/voodoo-one/l9487) and [Easton Alpha ALX](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/voodoo-one/l9487)


The Voodoo One, Easton ALX, and Louisville Slugger Atlas, all light-swinging single-piece alloy baseball bats, offer distinct advantages for hitters. The Voodoo One emphasizes precision and durability with a balanced swing, while the Easton ALX focuses on a responsive sweet spot and lightweight feel. The Louisville Slugger Atlas, incorporating AI simulations, stands out with variable barrel thickness for a massive sweet spot and optimal performance, carrying the historic legacy of the Louisville Slugger brand. Each bat caters to different player preferences, with the Voodoo One and Easton ALX providing reliable performance and the Atlas introducing technological innovation for elite high school and college players.


### The progression of the Louisville Slugger Atlas Baseball Bat:

There is no 2022 version of the Atlas. It’s compared to the single-piece Solo which also used a variable wall thickness and unique end cap to keep the bat light. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)


**PROS**



* My 14-year-old son needed a new BBCOR bat. He likes the one he got as it swings light and the barrel seems huge, although it's very loud.
* My son has been swinging a Cat X composite. I was not seeing the bat speed I thought he should have by now, I bought him the Atlas and from the first swing I saw a difference on bat speed. 
* Balanced bat with a massive sweet spot which makes it easy to catch barrel. As well as great improvements in durability.

**CONS**



* Loudest bat especially in cages. Bat has a rattle in it and we have only had it 3 months.
* The bat has so much vibration.
* Way to loud. It's distracting.


### Certification: BBCOR, USSSA, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Louieville Slugger Atlas is a newer bat that's been out for two years now. It's the next bat in the same generation as the Louisville Slugger Solo. It is a one-piece design, very easy to swing. Flashy paint job. It’s one of the top couple of bats in the alloy market.

Icon

## Rawlings ICON Baseball Bat

Known for engineering some of the most trusted and technologically advanced equipment in the game, Rawlings consistently pushes the envelope to meet and exceed the expectations of players at all levels. The ICON offers state-of-the-art features in a carbon composite bat—all of which highlight Rawlings’ commitment to quality, performance, and durability.

  

Perfect bat for: Power hitters who want a perfect blend of heft and control.

### Key features include:

-   In/Tense Carbon Composite: Ensuring maximum barrel size while maintaining optimal stiffness.
    
-   Zero-Loss Collar: Creates a smooth connection between the handle and barrel to eliminate any drag of vibration.

-   RevGrip: Tapered Premium Grip provides cushion and track.
    
-   Aerodynamic Design: Enhances swing speed without sacrificing power.
    

### Top competitors comparison: [Marucci CAT X Composite](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/marucci/cat-x-composite/l175805) and the [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403)

  

The big barrels on the Marucci CAT X Composite and the Louisville Slugger META, both feature flexible-feeling two-piece composite constructions. In comparison, the 2023 Rawlings Icon stands out with its In/Tense carbon composite construction which maximizes barrel size while maintaining it’s stiffness, perfect for big hitters. Each bat caters to specific league regulations and player preferences, with the CAT X Composite and META offering composite technology, while the Rawlings Icon features a zero-loss collar and connection joint creating a smooth connection between handle and barrel.  
  

### Progression of the Rawlings ICON Baseball Bat:

  
2023 is the first year of the Rawlings ICON.  
  

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   The Rawlings Icon is a beast on the field. Hits are powerful and consistent.
    
-   The sweet spot on this thing is like a magnet for the ball. It's tough as nails and can take a beating, which is exactly what you need in the game.
    
-   It's light and easy to swing. The ICON gives me control on the barrel. It feels lighter than other -3 bats. There is ZERO sting on this carbon composite. The ICON has a HUGE sweet spot and pop
    

**CONS**

-   The stock grip is just kinda okay – not as sticky or comfy as I expected. It's no deal-breaker, though. Folks generally like to tweak their grips to suit their style.
    
-   I'm not a big fan of the tapered knob on the ICON because I like to feel the handle more at the bottom (purely preference), but the handle feels fantastic.
    
-   The barrel cracked at the base of the handle. Travel ball practice starts this week and his brand new Icon is useless.
    

### Certification: BBCOR, USSSA, and USA

### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The ICON is the new hot bat from Rawlings. It's the top bat in the market right now. In terms of sales, very popular. You've got a lot of guys online doing reviews on it. I think the hype comes from the merger between Easton and Rawlings. They've got a lot of technology and have come up with a really strong-performing bat this season.

Mako

### Expert Notes
Endurance is the name of the game when it comes to Easton’s Mako bat series. Despite being discontinued in 2017, Easton Mako bats continue to sell very well in the modern market. This two-piece composite bat offers an additional jolt of pop at the plate, and its anti-vibration technology makes getting jammed a little less painful—physically, at least. The 2016 Easton Mako, in particular, has ascended into baseball bat folklore because of its neon green colorway and insane ability to demolish baseballs (although some hitters prefer the orange 2015 model, too). Considering the fantastic prices you can find Easton Mako’s listed at, it remains a top metal bat value pick.

Threat

### Expert Notes
Rawlings wanted to create a bat that’s meant specifically for smaller framed
players—and that’s just what they did with the Threat. The newest 2022 Threat comes
in an awesome Stars and Stripes themed colorway that we all
love, and delivers on its promise of enabling smaller hitters to swing with extra speed
through the strike zone. The 2022 Threat has evolved from when the series started in
2018 by adding even more width to an already expansive barrel—although I’ve heard
young hitters still love the 2019 Threat, as well (if only because of its neon green
colorway). If you seek a one piece composite bat that isn’t going to break the bank and
will benefit those who haven’t yet grown into their natural power, the Rawlings Threat
series stands alone.

Quatro Pro

# Rawlings Quatro Pro Baseball Bat


The Rawlings Quatro Pro delivers a balanced combination of power and speed to enhance each swing. The Quatro Pro's standout feature is the unique four-piece composite construction designed to deliver an optimal sweet spot, maximum pop, and reduced vibration. Rawlings has been an iconic name in baseball equipment since 1887, and the Quatro Pro series is the most technologically advanced bat the brand has ever designed. Every detail of the Quatro Pro is the result of number-crunching and meticulous engineering, intended to elevate each aspect of a player's swing. This bat is perfect for hitters looking for maximum bat speed.

**Perfect bat for:** Youth through collegiate-level players seeking a high-performance bat that delivers speed, power, and a large sweet spot. 



### Key features include: 




* **Four-Piece Composite Construction:** Delivers a smooth feel on contact and reduces vibration for greater comfort and control.
* **Added Handle Stiffness:** 30% added stiffness and Lizard Skins™ Grip helps you get through the zone faster 
* **Ultra-light end cap:** Makes it easier for players to achieve faster swing speeds and extended reach through the zone. 
* **Updated Q4 suspended Inner Barrel:** Provides a longer barrel, a larger sweet spot, and a more balanced swing. 
* **Longitudinal Flex:** Re-engineered composite layering for enhanced trampoline across the length of the barrel.
* **Focused Flex:** Reconstructed collar assembly for a stiffer, focused flex, eliminating barrel drag while maintaining vibration reduction qualities.


### Top competitors comparison: [The Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [DeMarini CF Zen](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-zen-2020/l8432)

The Rawlings Quatro Pro stands out for its four-piece composite construction and Focused Flex Technology, offering unparalleled pop and reduced vibration. While the Meta emphasizes its premium alloy barrel for a massive sweet spot, and the CF Zen is celebrated for its balanced swing weight and 3Fusion Connection system that optimizes energy transfer, the Quatro Pro's unique combination of technologies ensures a superior feel, outstanding performance, and minimum hand sting, making it a preferred choice among competitive hitters. 



### Progression of the Rawlings Quatro Pro Baseball Bat 

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model. 
 
**2019 -** **[Quatro Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/rawlings/quatro-pro/l10010)**
- Upgraded with a newly designed longitudinal flex for enhanced trampoline effect across the barrel. 
- Introduction of the Focused Flex collar assembly to eliminate barrel drag while maintaining vibration reduction. 
- Re-engineered composite layering for even greater durability and performance. 
 
**2020 -** **Quatro Pro USA**
- Adjustments made for USA Baseball certification, including enhancements to meet the specific performance standards. 
- Maintained the critical features of balance, reduced vibration, and Flex Barrel technology. 
- Improved weight distribution for an even more balanced feel. 
 
**2021 -** **[Quatro Pro BBCOR](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/rawlings/quatro-pro/bat-type-bbcor/l208035)**
- Tailored for high school and collegiate play with BBCOR certification. 
- Reinforced connection point to reduce vibration further and improve feel. 
- Enhanced composite layering for superior durability and power through the hitting zone. 


 **2022 -** **[Quatro Pro](%28https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/rawlings/quatro-pro/l10010%29)** 
- New Lizard Skins grip for improved handle feel and comfort. 
- Continuation of the Flex Barrel technology and focusing on improving the composite material for peak performance. 
- Updated aesthetics and vibration-dampening features for an optimal hitting experience.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* I initially bought the end-loaded Pro Max bat, but it failed the NCAA bat testing. So, I tried the Quatro Pro bat and was surprised by its pop, even though it sometimes feels too light. 
* If you are searching for a composite bat that offers balance, then this bat is a fantastic choice.
* The Quatro Pro has a lot of pop and zero vibration. It has a good sweat spot and is all-around a good bat.

**CONS**



* My son enjoyed using the Rawlings bat and liked the popping sound. However, the knob broke off after only six months of use. We contacted Rawlings and they sent us a new bat as a replacement. Unfortunately, the knob on the new bat broke off again after just three months of use.
* Small sweet spot and weird swing weight
* Rawlings 2-piece bats are inferior quality they break easy and can’t withstand use over time. 


### **Certification**:

USA Baseball, USSSA, and BBCOR


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

The Quatro Pro launched in 2019. Even today, it's one of the hottest bats out there. If you can find one, the Quatro Pro is a great performer; it is lightweight, easy to swing, and has a ton of pop. Probably one of the top five BBCOR bats of all time. 

The first two years had breakage issues. Since then, Rawlings has made some adjustments to the barrel, thickened the sidewalls and made the bat more durable, but in doing so, they lessened the performance. The later models are not as popular as the early ones.

Uprising

Prodigy

### Expert Notes
The Rawlings Prodigy youth bat series explains in its name that those who swing it are set for success. The 2022 Prodigy bat is a favorite within USA baseball leagues because of its extremely lightweight feel and red/orange color combination. The one- piece alloy bat was first released in 2017, and Rawlings has remained committed to providing an affordable yet effective Prodigy bat model every year since. Besides looks, I’ve noticed that not much has changed between the earliest Prodigy bat and the most recent release—but that’s because youth hitters clearly have no complaints about this model. The Rawlings Prodigy bat series is proof that, sometimes, keeping it simple is best for success.

Dirty South Swag

Maxum 360

### Expert Notes
Big barrels are the main attraction for Easton’s Maxum 360. A direct descendant of the
Combat Maxum line, the newest 2020 model delivers that same XXL barrel that fans of the original will crave. And you will be
thrilled to know the Easton Maxum 360 offers the same LizardSkin grip that the original
Maxums from 2016, 2017, and 2018 were adored for. There’s something about this
bat’s orange, grey, and white colorway that hitters swear enhances their swag
at the plate. If you like one-piece composite bats that don’t hold back in pop production,
then you’ll love the Easton Maxum 360 metal bat.

Meta One

Velo

### Expert Notes
The longest lasting metal bat series on the market is still at its peak. Rawlings legendary Velo series returned in 2022, with a Velo ACP release that I’ve heard hitters say offers unparalleled balance at the plate. Over time, the Rawlings Velo series has evolved by incorporating the ACP (Accelerated Carbon Performance) line that adds extra carbon in the barrel, which we’ve heard does a lot to increase pop. While Velo’s aren’t the best looking bats you’re going to find, they make up for the plainness with top-notch performance. Rawlings’ resilient Velo series should continue to be a favorite for hard-nosed hitters who prefer production over flash.

Mako Beast

### Expert Notes
The Easton Mako Beast is proof that some bats surpass their expected expiration date.
Released in 2017, this Easton model offers a deadly combo of a light swing and a big
barrel to create a terrifying bat for we pitchers. The two-piece, composite Mako Beast
evolved from Easton’s legendary Mako bat series (my favorite metal bat of all time), but was updated to include a longer barrel than the original Mako. Aside from that, not
much else has changed between older Mako models and the 2018 Mako Beast (not
including this bat’s sweet black matte colorway with grey accents). Although Easton has
released a number of excellent metal bats over the years, many hitters 
consider the 2017 Beast Mako to be one of their all-time best. And if you use this bat, you
might reach your peak, as well.
