Asa Ghost

[belly43]

Anyone got any info on this?

 

[Joker]

Fast pitch bat

 

[u234bob]

Hopefully Easton has caught up. I'd assume so.

 

[Gnar4ever]

SP Ghost coming soon

 

[Jusrah99]

Yup, Inner barrel technology like the rest of the bat makers...making room in the bag for one...

 

[sscroggin]

What size barrel on it?

 

[Gnar4ever]

What size barrel on it?

13.5"

 

[sscroggin]

bummer.

 

[jbo911]

DBA?

 

[EA Sports]

It's for ASA Jbo. You don't have that in your neck of the woods.

Watched the videos about the Ghost. How does the new "softer and hotter" outer barrel work for compression testing? Will there be issues like with early Zs where they had to test on the disc or does the outer barrel still need to meet standards?

 

[Joker]

it will be a non linear bat like the aftermaths, EST, platinums and have a different preload

Reading questions like this makes me long for the old days when a bat was a bat. Not some complicated machine.

interesting that it carries the 2004 ASA stamp. my thought would be that it won't be as hot as other non linear bats. i also see them causing problems calling it "double barrel" getting mixed up with double wall leagues.

 

[Joker]

you cannot use a bat with the new stamp in a fastpitch game. it is only for slowpitch

 

[etnstudios]

i understand that. didn't they have a testing reason/process for that though? did it have to do with the ball used in the different versions of the game. just trying to think back to when that rule came about. my line of thinking was going into the slowpitch version, would it carry the old or new ASA stamp. if it's the old then i would think that maybe it wouldn't perform like the other nonlinear bats

 

[Joker]

i have no idea what you're trying to say. the only ghost that has been announced by easton is a FP bat. it will have the 2004 ASA stamp because the new stamp is only for the SP game

Nobody still hasn't heard anything?

Project 9. According to Easton's Facebook page. Due out later this summer.

 

[SAGER25]

Has anyone hit 52/300's with this?

 

[CHE5TER]

Hit 52/275's tonight with it. Sounds bizarre but I liked it. Really good considering it was a old ASA stamp. Looking forward to the Project 9 line...

 

[chile]

hit NX3 spinners, evil bp52s, dudley 52/300s with it...it hits them all well. it just sounds ghastly.

[Jusrah99]

I will have a full review up soon...

 

[chile]

I hope they do something similar for utrip...

With the inner barrel? The Flex tech is pretty awesome...have you swung the Reckoning?

Haven't swung the reckoning... Or any of their utrip offerings since the 15 Wegman.
