We had to send them back before we really got to test them well, but I will just say my daughter has broken two ghosts in the last 15 months and both times we got new ghosts. The Marucci didn't enter the conversation.

It is odd that Core had that experience because I have two demo Echo Connects arriving tomorrow. They emailed me (16u travel coach) out of the blue and asked if we wanted to demo their bats. We are looking forward to seeing how they perform.

When I talk Demos...they are given to me. Not borrow and send back. That way stores can really let customers
use them for a while and we can get them out and about. Marucci would rather have them sit in the warehouse...haha

I know a couple of power hitters that like the one piece but in general there is two little known about their bats. I mentioned a while back that they sponsored a tournament and where selling their bats but they had no demos. They have a huge market share in baseball but they are going to have to spend some money to get in the fastpitch.

I can just tell you from my experience using my son's CAT8 aluminum. It is like a cartoon running into a brick wall. Heavy vibration. If the fastpitch is anything like that then girls will probably hate them.

My daughter didn't report any vibration problems with the Marucci, she just didn't feel like it had the pop of her Ghosts or CF.

Echo connects are an underrated bat. It took us a while to get used to it and maybe bat to break in. I wouldn't say best but my dd has grown to swing hers a lot. Have a LXT bat i can't even get her to swing much cause she's performed better with Marucci. (also a -11 vs a -10 bat)

Saw one the day at hitting lessons. Girl in front of us had brought one in still in wrapper. Her normal bat a ghost was used as comparison. Instructor was really impressed that it a lot more pop straight out of wrapper. So impressed he called and ordered a few so his hitters could give them a try.

Is the Echo end loaded or balanced? DD uses Power Carbon drop 10 but can get a great deal on a drop 9 Echo.

Echo connect is a balanced bat. I'm not sure if that changes much when going to a -9 bat.

What is your idea on a great deal. I have access to their team discount which gives automatic 30% off. Shipped to door w/ taxes etc is like $277
