(More customer reviews)I wanted to "treat" myself to a good bat and I purchased this 34inch 30oz Easton. I've purchased various easton bats over the years and was looking forward to this one. I'm 6'1" and a lean 195 lbs and expect a bat to transfer energy, not flex too much. The bat sounds odd, as if it literally had a barrel made from bamboo. I know, it's weird. People ask about the bat all the time, for all the wrong reasons. The extended barrel might be the culprit, but who knows. Don't get me wrong, it does have positives. When you hit the ball perfectly, it does push the ball deep, but I use this as my secondary bat. Now, I'm back to my older Eastons that perform solid and have softballs pop right off the barrel. Hope this helps. -E.

Easton SCX14 Synergy Extended Slow Pitch BatBoasting Easton's patented Integrated Matrix (IMX) technology, which optimizes the relationship between the materials, design technologies, and manufacturing process, the SCX14 Synergy extended bat continues to dominate the slow-pitch game. The bat's distinguishing features are its 13.5-inch extended barrel--which creates a bigger sweet spot--and its Extended Flex design, which stretches the sweet spot all the way across the entire barrel length. As a result, slow-pitch softball players will enjoy more power than ever before.
Other details include an evenly balanced design that maximizes swing speed; an ultra-thin 29/32-inch handle with a Pro-Tack cushioned grip; and a 2-1/4-inch barrel diameter. The Synergy slow-pitch bat--which meets all 2007 bat performance standards from ASA, USSSA, NSA, ISA, SSUSA, and ISF--carries a one-year warranty.
About Easton In 1922, Doug Easton began crafting custom wood bows and cedar arrows in Watsonville, California. Although Doug produced tournament-grade, footed cedar arrows for the archery champions of that era, he was constantly frustrated with the inconsistency and lack of uniformity of wood shafts. Convinced that consistently straight uniform arrow shafts were impossible to manufacture from wood, Doug turned his attentions to aluminum. In 1939, he began manufacturing aluminum arrows in Los Angeles. His instincts about this material were correct, and in 1941, California archer Larry Hughes won the national championship with a set of Doug's aluminum arrows. This was the beginning of a trend that would change traditional archery and transcend into numerous other sports arenas over the next 50 years.
