What is the quick review?
The 2023 Easton Ghost Unlimited is a single-piece composite fastpitch bat built around Easton’s double-barrel concept in a unified design. It delivers elite exit speeds, a massive sweet spot, and hot performance out of the wrapper. While it was introduced with hopes of improving durability over earlier Ghost models, real-world use has shown that performance remains the headline feature, not longevity.
What models and sizes are available?
The Ghost Unlimited lineup is available in drops -10, -9, and -8, with the drop -10 standing out as the most popular and best-performing option. All versions are approved for major fastpitch associations and maintain the same single-piece double-barrel construction.
How is it built?
A single-piece composite bat using Easton’s double-barrel design, where an inner and outer composite barrel work together to maximize trampoline effect across a longer hitting area. The Unlimited also features Easton’s Power Boost soft knob for comfort and leverage. Compared to two-piece Ghost models, the feel is more unified and smooth, with less handle flex.
How does it compare?
The 2023 Ghost Unlimited was the first single-piece double-barrel Ghost. While it differs structurally from the Ghost Advanced, overall performance output is similar. Durability improvements over two-piece Ghost models have been modest rather than transformative.
Bottom line
The 2023 Ghost Unlimited delivered on performance expectations but did not fully solve the durability concerns associated with the Ghost line. It remains one of the most dangerous bats in the fastpitch game, but it is not a worry-free choice.
