Ghost X Hyperlite

## Easton Ghost X Hyperlite Baseball Bat

The Easton Ghost X Hyperlite series is renowned for its lightweight design—focused on providing speed and bat control for players. The Ghost X Hyperlite is a good example of the innovation, performance, and quality that has made Easton’s bats a favorite among players since 1922. With products for every level of the game, Easton continues to push the boundaries of technology and materials in their bats and other gear.

**Perfect bat for:** Younger players looking to improve bat speed with an ultra-light swing on a single composite bat.


### Key features include:



* **Composite Material:** Utilizing Easton’s exclusive EXACT Carbon Technology, this bat offers a lightweight, yet powerful construction for maximized swing speed and power.
* **HYPERLITE Barrel Design:** Optimizes the sweet spot for maximum performance across the entire barrel, allowing for quicker swings and more contact.
* **Speed Cap™:** Enhances the sound of the bat on contact, while also improving the flexibility of the barrel for a more responsive hit.
* **Lizard Skins™ Grip:** Provides ultimate comfort and tack, reducing hand fatigue and improving control during swings.
* **CONNEXION+™ Technology:** Delivers a seamless energy transfer, reducing vibration and improving the feel on contact.

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)**

### 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.

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.

Pop: ⭐⭐⭐

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐

Vibration: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ghost X

### Expert Notes
Although Easton’s Ghost X bat series was discontinued in 2019, it continues to haunt pitchers (including me). Power hitters in particular rave about how big the two-piece, composite Ghost X bat’s barrel is while not sacrificing swing speed, which leads to smashing balls on the sweet spot. The most recent 2019 Ghost X evolved from older Ghost models by allowing for very little vibration when you hitters out there get jammed on a filthy inside fastball. The natural evolution from Easton’s legendary Mako bat series, their Ghost X bat line is still highly sought after by hitters of all ages and skill levels. And since a Ghost X bats’ power doesn’t diminish over time, you hitters should expect a power boost when wielding this Easton stick at the dish.

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.
