Who This Bat Is Built For
Best for:
- SSUSA seniors who swing what Greg Connell swings — a one-piece 12.75" Tantrum built for the senior game, from one of its most feared power hitters.
- Half-ounce fitters: 25.5, 26.5 and 27.5 oz.
Consider a different model if:
- You want a two-piece for comfort — the Tantrum Senior 12" from $203.97.
- You play open USSSA, not senior — Connell's USSSA signature is the 1.20-stamp version.

FAQ
Is this bat legal for my league?
It carries the ISA and SSUSA certification stamps — always confirm this model against your league's current approved-bat list before game day. Playing a different sanction? See the 2024 Easton Tantrum Slowpitch Softball Bat Loaded USSSA.
Is it covered by a warranty?
Yes — a full no warranty Easton manufacturer warranty against breaking and defects, honored through us as an authorized dealer.
Which weight should I pick?
25.5, 26.5 or 27.5 oz. Even Connell-inspired swings should respect senior sizing — 25.5 or 26.5 for most; the 27.5 is for players still driving it 300 feet. Senior warranty terms differ; see the listing.
