my favorite Easton all time would have to be the Easton Bell Corp, yes it's old school but it would send the ball...:D. One of the first high performance bats back in the day....

the Eatons i carry in the bag now are the 08 Helmer and the 07 Stealth+, I tend to use the Stealth over the Helmer the sweet spot is a little bigger and seems to hit the ball a little better on mis-hits..

2008 Brett Helmer Synergy +

Why: I love the way it feels. If I take a bad swing, hit it off the taper or end cap I know instantly. Yes the SS is small compared to most other bats but I dont have a problem finding it. This was also the first bat I bought NIW and dedicated myself to breaking it in fully. It took 1000+ hits and I now have trouble swinging anything else.

My favorite easton would have to be the cnt+, with the stealth right behind it. I accually get better distance out of the stealth line, but I always liked the feel of the cnt's better. The Helmers out distance the cnt too, I just dont spinn the ball as good with them.

I have an easton that I bought to swing in batting cages that I am really fond of. It a hammer.

Wish I could speak for the utrip models but haven't swung any of them, so my fav has to be the scn9.

The only Easton softball bat I have liked is the grey and red Extended. The Stealth+ is alright. I'm not a big Easton fan. I've never swung any that were broken in though besides an Extended.

They only Eastons I have liked are the original synergy line and the Helmer ASA 98. For some unknown reason the ASA model is way hotter than the USSSA model. JMO!

the 1st batch og synery with no usssa letters on it is easily the hottest easton ever made. the synergy + black and green and the grey green 1st batch 06' cnt+ are very close 2nds. the rest are playing for 4th and below.

imo the 08 and the 09 helmer sucks but i only hit both a couple hundered times.

i like the 09 stealth. just not a fan of the helmer line the og syn+ was nice. i had good results with the bh+ just didn't care for it. it makes no sense to me either. it's like burger king and wendys why spend time eating one you don't care for when your worth out hit's it out of the wrapper.:cool:
