Easton has so many more bats on the market than everyone else. Instead of making these bats that no one seems to want, why not make sure they have Tantrums in stock for example? It doesn't have to be Tantrum's but whatever their best bats are. They have 30 different types of Fireflex's that all seem to be the same IMO. I know about 10 players that are trying to get the 1 piece Tantrum's and none that are looking at the other 40 Easton's on the various sites.

[@jameswebster4840]

Question: Would this bat be a good choice with a 52 cor 300 comp softball as opposed to a ASA.USA bat????

[@FatGuyBP]

I’m not sure. We didn’t try them

[@jameswebster4840]

I am a believer over time that the USSSA bats hit the 52 cor 300 comp softballs just as well if not better than the ASA/USA bats.

[@FatGuyBP]

@@jameswebster4840 have you ever tried the monsta or pure stuff ?

[@jameswebster4840]

I have hit a few of the Pure bats. I have also hot the Monsta Zombie. The Hellfire was a good bat for the 52's.

[@Derrick2]

no radar this time?

[@FatGuyBP]

Sorry no we didn’t

[@BenchwarmerBats]

Definitely very interesting to me that the testing for these is so varied. We reviewed a 27oz one as well and ours was failing in wrapper. Bat is definitely outstanding and lives up to the hype.

[@ivandelatorre3937]

Just ordered the tantrum 1 piece hopefully it’s just as hot as the first batch.

[@Unstopabel_40]

Anyone make a video explaining why the one piece is supposably WAY hotter then the 2 piece? doesn't make much sense.

[@FatGuyBP]

2-piece barrels are hot but the connection piece is the problem on the 2-piece. Too much flex in the handle.

[@Unstopabel_40]

Dam I wouldnt think the flex on a Easton would be that bad to make that much of a difference, The one piece Wegmans of the past were crap before about 500+ swings @@FatGuyBP

[@FatGuyBP]

@@Unstopabel_40 agreed on the Wegman

[@samuraiknight4250]

Do you like this better or the genesis vice bat. We use a ball that gets softer as the game goes on here in canada. So curious what you think is better.

[@FatGuyBP]

Imo I would think a stiffer barrel would be better like a Genesis barrel.

[@heishmanc_]

Where do I get the BP machine you’re using. I need one of those!

[@FatGuyBP]

It’s called a Jugs BP1 . Can get it from Amazon

[@jameswebster4840]

Any idea when these will be back in stick? I've looked everywhere and no one seems to have them.

[@jameswebster4840]

Meant to say stock.

[@RoopHardeo-in8zt]

What pitching machine are you using?

[@FatGuyBP]

Jugs BP1

[@donavancrabtree]

CC3 or Tantrum in a non testing league?

[@cmellott11]

You can’t go wrong with either one, it really depends on your swing and what you like…. I prefer the Easton, but I’m an Easton and 1 pc guy, that being said the one piece Louisville is coming out soon…

[@bigkenny4223]

What’s your top pick? The new proton, Easton tantrum, or a genny?

[@cmellott11]

All good bats, but really depends on temp. Louisville is a no brainer when its hot, after that it depends on weighting and what feels good to you. Proton is light in the ass for me but it swings so nice, Easton has been my utrip gamer for a long time, but Louisville in my mind is top dog. Plu they offer so many variants that you can find one that fits your swing.

[@alfonsogarcia73]

How can I get my hands on one

[@HoneyBeeFore]

Ladies team hit bombs with it today at my tourney 💨💨

[@cindycanales7470]

Haven’t tried this one..but my Anarchy Nimmo is hot and durable…think Anarchy is slept on

[@jreynolds2184]

Yep found a NoName online dirt cheap this winter as a backup to my M2 Sinister solid stick just needs more miles

[@chadfowler4761]

I’ve swung a ton of them and that white/orange Nimmo is about hot as anything I’ve swung.

[@VenomXNRS]

Who do we contact to get one?

[@FatGuyBP]

From what I’ve seen everyone is sold out at the moment.

[@house00]

my 2 piece fails at 215-220 after about 75-80 swings

[@dabig25]

How do the 2 piece compare ?

[@FatGuyBP]

We haven’t swung one yet but we got one to review.

[@joshthomas269]

[@MarraSoftball]

Gotta show some skin for the views! 😂

[@mehrtashsamadzadeh8317]

I have the louisville genesis one peice.....is this easton hotter than that ?

[@FatGuyBP]

220 stamp ?

[@FatGuyBP]

220 stamp vs 240 stamp isn’t a fair comparison but I think this bad could possibly hang

[@mychelsaddler3861]

You want to sell that one you got

[@FatGuyBP]

No sorry bud it’s Chads bat

[@mychelsaddler3861]

Those went fast

[@jameswebster4840]

Great video as always. I can't seem to find this bat in stock anywhere. Do you have any info of a site that I can buy it?

[@FatGuyBP]

No I’ve checked everywhere. Everyone is sold out from what I’ve seen.

[@jameswebster4840]

When there is a good bat to be bought I don't understand why everyone is sold out. You would think they would speed up the manufacturing of the bat in order to fill all of the order requests and make as much money as possible.

[@moizbadar]

🔥🔥🔥

[@tfiorentino53]

Is this a new theme in the videos of going backside/middle? Like the use of the full field!

[@FatGuyBP]

Trying to mix it up but we are also losing the HR balls in left. Save balls = change of pace

[@Dxnniis]

It just seems like your playing bat roulette with these. You might get a good one that kinda holds. Or one that’s going to fail in the wrapper or 20 swings in. Lol

[@SluggerStark]

Ya, the hype is real on these. Finally got swing one, had about 150 ish swings, 27oz. Also had my 220 Eastons and Louisvilles out. Off the tee, with a 44/375, the Tantrum was right there velocity wise with my 13.5" FF1 and a couple MPH behind the 1pc Geny and FF1 12" Helmer (my two hottest bats). Where it is actually better though, is like you said (and BP hero), the sweetspot is literally the whole barrel!! So, Easton has pretty much just put out a FireFlex 220 with a better sweetspot. No idea what compression was on the Tantrum I hit was, but can't see it passing compression, even with 150 swings.

[@dabig25]

I just picked up the pink 2 piece a few weeks ago . After about 150 swings thing went to a new level 🔥🔥

[@jameswebster4840]

I spoke to an Easton rep and he told me they will get more in by year's end. That's sad on Easton's part as I know several guys trying to get the 1 piece Tantrum. Easton is losing business by having slow production of this bat.

[@drizzle9530]

Wellif you go on their website, they’ve been in stock the last week, just checked and 1 piece still there.

[@jameswebster4840]

Thanks I will check it out.

[@jameswebster4840]

I checked several sites and they are still out of stock on the 1 piece Tantrum.

Great bat but if they test at your tournaments... This bat is basically a ONE AND DONE.

So is this bat legal or is this bat illegal ? The $300 question (before tax) 😂

This bat just sounds different , shotgun blasts

[@BigBenBP]

😮

[@mehrtashsamadzadeh8317]

Yeah

[@agreenexperience]

Thanks for another great review. Also you're swing going middle and to right looks great, do you do that in your games? My other question, how do you think it compares to the new Louisville power x coil tech in the Ironman and other models?

[@FatGuyBP]

Thank you! I typically go middle, backside when playing. As for comparison this is in my top three of 240 bats out.

[@guylabreche410]

What are your top 3 Adam? • with no testing would you swing this or Iron Man Genesis?

[@FatGuyBP]

@@guylabreche410 top 3 are any of the new Genesis line, 1-piece proton and the Tantrum. Gamer would depend on how I few that day. Sounds dumb but how I’m swinging dictates the bat I use.

[@alvarodelacruz9473]

Great hitting and great video. If not getting compression tested in league night or tournaments which bat would you game ,Easton Tantrum 1pc or Proton neon series 2?

[@FatGuyBP]

I prefer the 1-piece proton myself. If I gotta decide between the 2-piece proton and the Tantrum? I’ll take the tantrum. I just don’t like flex in my handle.

[@harder715]

"High durometer" 😂. Sounds like a real life belt salesman more than the premier bat reviewer on KZbin.

[@FatGuyBP]

Yeah I’ve sold conveyor belts , gaskets , orings and I guess that’s why I referred to the durometer of the knob.

[@scottmarkwick6077]

Marra-plant your feet, you’re all upper body AND get some longer shorts FFS. This isn’t some beach in Italy. Fat Guy- don’t take your bottom hand off the bat and swing all the way around. Those hits are lazy slappers.

[@murphykakeeway]

Over hyped bat .... cant use it for long if u play where they test 🤷‍♂️

[@Mr15hz]

Where do they test at? I haven't had a bat tested in years.

[@overdueresidue]

@@Mr15hzI think mostly tournaments - I’ve played in lots of different leagues up in Canada and they never test. We also use the ASA balls tho
