POWER & EXIT VELOCITY - Ghost Unlimited’s one-piece, stiffer bat with Double Barrel LXT design and Sonic Comp Max composite barrel enables true power hitters (who can handle heavier -8, -9 drops) to maximize raw energy transfer, generating TOP EXIT VELOCITY when they square it up!!!
BAT SPEED & CONTROL - Ghost Unlimited’s -8, -9 drops are more end-loaded so they swing heavier which helps pure strength hitters but can cost lesser-strength power hitters crucial BAT SWING SPEED and BAT CONTROL.
SWEET SPOT & MIS‑HITS - Ghost Unlimited’s dual‑wall barrel has an exceptionally large SWEET SPOT allowing power hitters to drive balls hard that otherwise would be MIS-HITS.
FEEL & VIBRATION CONTROL - Ghost Unlimited, by design, is a one-piece, stiffer, end-loaded bat, maximizing POWER & EXIT VELOCITY but results in strong feedback to the hands when the bat-to-ball collision takes place; also, for lesser-strength power hitters, it can feel like it drags through the hitting zone and its VIBRATION CONTROL is lacking on MIS-HITS (and in cold weather).
BREAK‑IN PERIOD - Ghost Unlimited generally needs a modest break‑in window of qualityl contacts to really open it up - about 50-100 swings rotating the barrel.
DURABILITY & BAT FATIGUE - Ghost Unlimited has 70% Positive Reviews with the majority of Neutral/Negative reviews citing DURABILITY issues and early BAT FATIGUE; if you purchase this fastpitch softball bat, be prepared for risk of possible breaking or cracking and early bat deadness. Note: Some reviewers also complain that Easton can be difficult to deal with regarding warranty claims and returns.
PRICE (MSRP) - Ghost Unlimited has a top-tier price tag of $499.99.
BOTTOM LINE - The 2025 Easton Ghost Unlimited is THE TOP CHOICE for a true power hitter who wants to maximize their raw power transfer and can handle a heavier swing weight. With the 2025 Easton Ghost Unlimited they can create TOP EXIT VELOCITY - so they can drive balls over-the-fence and through-the-gaps to the fence. For a power hitter who needs a little help to get faster BAT SWING SPEED and better barrel CONTROL, look to more balanced fastpitch softball bats that use a bit more of a trampoline effect to generate near-top EXIT VELOCITY.d
The Coach’s advice:
Use it sparingly in practice (other than break-in period), saving it for games.
Don’t use it in weather under 60 degrees.
Make certain you understand both Easton’s and your selected retailer’s warranties and return policies.
