I don't believe they're discontinuing the -3 Easton Omen. The 2012 BBCOR model is available for $399. You're probably seeing the BESR version being sold at clearance prices in the 200-250 range. If you buy one of those, you can't use it for high school, so be cautious.

Wait as long as you can. Each run better than previous run. Longer time for feedback from real world users. |

All the research I have done points to the Rawlings 5150 as a very balanced BBCOR bat. Picked one up today for my 15U to swing and see how it compares to his non-BBCOR 5150 -3/-5 and his MPowered wood bats which are very balanced.
I've heard the Easton Power Brigade is supposed to be a comparable bat (copy?) to the 5150. Should be out anytime according to Better Baseball guy today.

This is due out anytime, Dick's flyer I got this week had an XL2 listed @ $299.99. There's some discussion on it in a few baseball bat forums. |

Still trying to figure out which BBCOR bat is the most balanced? 
5150 is all I have heard.
Any options on the Vodoo bats?
My son tried swinging an Easton Surge, but didn't like it.

gghubart, I can assure you that BBCOR bats out perform wood on every level, so that does not seem like very good advice you are giving. |

At this point, these kids might as well use wood. Check out MadDog bats on Facebook...they have some good stuff and a lot of giveaways. Tell them I sent ya and give them this number 211407421968042 |

I'm hearing the most balanced is the 5150.
We own a Voodoo and its on the heavy/end loaded side but has some pop. I may go out and get a 5150 today just so my boys are covered. |
