| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| It took a few swings to get it broken in, but now it makes a beautiful sound as it sends the softball flying into the air. |
| My kid loves this bat. When she catches the sweet spot it makes a distinctive ‘Pop’ and the ball flies far. |
| This bat has pop. It’s better balanced than any bat my daughter has ever owned. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Started this spring season and the cap falls off every time it’s hit. Not satisfied. |
| All the paint flies off. It's been used 5 times. I have never seen a bat flake and crack like this. |
| Bat is already dead and my 8 year old hasn’t even finished the fall season yet. |
The Prism+ is all about that balanced swing feel. It's not super light, but the weight distribution is on point, letting players generate speed without feeling off-center. Plus, the composite construction keeps things smooth on contact, minimizing hand sting on mishits. The Prism+ sits at a mid-range price compared to other top-of-the-line fastpitch bats. It's an investment, but for many players, the large sweet spot and balanced swing make it worth it.
