Do not buy!
DO NOT BUY this bat. This is an update to a previous review. We had the older mantra and it broke after 3 months. Received the 2025 version, it has broken THREE separate times, each after two uses. The two pieces become disconnected each time. This last time it was hitting off of a tee, never off of a pitching machine. Don’t waste your money.

AMAGING bat for Competitive Softball Players!
Was part of the R&D team, it is a great bat and my daughter has found great success in her hitting with it. The bat came out of the wrapper ready to play and did not take a significant amount of break-in. It has GREAT pop and after about 700 to 800 swings there is still not damage to the bat.

Hottest bat on the market!
This is by far my favorite bat I’ve swung. The pop is phenomenal and I love that when I hit the ball I don’t feel any vibrations. It’s outlast all my other bats and is extremely durable, this new Mantra is my #1! I train 6 days a week and I can’t said enough good things about this bat.

Amazing bat!!
This bat continues to impress me especially since I was not a fan of the first 2 versions. This performs more like a premium bat like the unlimited or the advanced that I have grown to love. I plan on purchasing this bat and look forward to many more versions of it.

My daughter has used this bat for batting practice for the last 2 months and it did start to have more pop over time. Unfortunately she was not confident enough in it to use it in a game. She plans to keep using it for hitting practice in hopes that it gets better.

At broke in 2 days 60 swings
Bought this bat for my daughter when it released had it for 2 days she hit off of a tee and took it to practice took one swing and the handle detached from the barrel. Horrible experience with this bat. She also had the 2023 version that one had been great.

Broke first weekend it was used!
Purchased 2023 Mantra in May of 2024, broke in August. Received 2025 Mantra as warranty replacement in September and it broke the first weekend it was used. Immediately developed a wobble - like the end is detached from the barrel. Very disappointed.

great bat
This bat is great for competitive players. It has a responsive barrel and is lightweight, making it easy to swing faster and hit harder. Built to last, it offers good pop and control. Overall, a solid choice for anyone looking to up their game.

Great pop
This bat is a great bat it has great pop however this bat is to light for me I currently swing a 33 drop 10 ghost and I bought the same size and weight and the mantra feels much lighter than my current and I get around the ball to quickly.

Highly recommend
I was a product tester for this bat and it has become my favorite bat to use in games! It is a comfortable weight even though it is lighter than my other drop 10s. It is perfect for tournaments and works well with fast pitches.

Loved it!
I really love the bat, it took a while to break in but that is usual for Rawlings bats, it’s super hot and I have no complaints about it. I’m so thankful for the opportunity I had to test out and review this bat, thank you!

Love the 2025 Mantra!!!
I’ve had every Rawlings fast-pitch bat since the Quatro. This bat has a lot more pop than the previous bats, and swings much lighter. I love this bat and can’t wait for more people to try it!!

Great bat with great features
I received this bat a couple of months ago and I loved it. It was one of the best bats I’ve ever used. I love how it felt when I hit the ball and the pop it had overall.

Feels great!
I really liked the bat overall. The durability, pop and feel. The one thing I just couldn’t get over is the sound. It sounds very dead.

Great two piece bat!
I prefer a one piece bat. However, this bat was very good. Many of my teammates used this bat in practice and games. Everyone liked it.
