Top Competitors
For young baseball players the Louisville Slugger Meta, and DeMarini CF Zen are also top-tier options with large sweet spots and composite construction. While the Ghost X prioritizes a light swing for contact hitters, the Meta offers a balanced feel for all-around play. The CF Zen boasts the biggest barrel for power but might lack durability and swings a touch lighter than the Ghost X.

| Love this bat! Great sound and pop. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Not our favorite. After using this for a few games, my son found his ball didn't travel as far. |
| If you're looking for pop and speed, this is not the best option. |
| I didn't notice much of a difference in how the ball came off this bat compared to my son's $70 bat. |
This USA bat is designed for little league or a pony leagues. It won't be a very high-performance bat and, in general, is designed for safety. Typically, your little leaguer, who uses the USA stamp, is a player at an entry-level ability. With that said, the Ghost X Hyperlite was one of the best available USA bats. But any USA bat is going to be a mediocre performer overall. The Ghost X Hyperlite is very lightweight and very easy to swing. Smaller players do well with it.
