240 bats are f'ing junk, plain and simple. There are a few durable exceptions, but most of them are garbage.

I've seen at least 3 separate reviews on specific bats. They put 100 swings on them and they are already failing compression. Not too...

For me it's about money too, but I don't want to waste my $$ on bats that are not durable and I can't BP. I'd rather get a slower to...

I've seen a lot of demos on the new bats. Most are starting out between 250-275. Once they get about 100 hits several are failing...

the first gen things had a telescope problem with the handle. the ones with the soft knob don't have that issue that I've seen and hit...

I can't say as I've not had the opportunity to try one yet. I've been contemplating grabbing one or two, not necessarily one of the...

I haven't swung any 240 Demarinis or LSs. I've heard good things about Demarini 240s. They seem to hold compression and perform well...

I agree they are pure mush in the heat. I had a buddy put them in a cooler before a DH years ago to keep them lively. It was hot 90+...

What is your opinion on the Easton Thing bat? I see them really cheap online.

I agree. I just don't want to get a dud even if it is a cheaper price. I saw a demo on a bat that I was interested in and it broke...

For what you will pay for niw lvs,demarini vs $99 I'd say no-brainer, worth a shot. Performance can only be determined by one's self...

I saw it on Easton's site for $99 (Easton Thing 2023). Do you think it is as good as the new LS Sluggers or Demarinis????

I agree 100%. I was using my ASA bat to take a few swings before an ASA game last season. I usually swing a USSSA bat with the 52's...
