The 2023 Easton Encore Hybrid -3 BBCOR Baseball Bat pulls in all the best features of Easton's cutting edge bat engineering, resulting in a 2-piece hybrid bat that will earn you a reputation as an offensive force every time you step in the box.
We built the barrel of this bat with CompCore Technology, pulling together cutting-edge elements of alloy and composite barrel design. To create the CompCore barrel, the ringless R5 alloy of the Encore Hybrid is thinned out by about 30% and then reinforced with Thermo Composite Technology across the length of the hitting surface. This creates an ultra-thin barrel wall, bigger sweet spot, and maximum "trampoline effect" upon contact. The PureLynk CXN joint connects the handle directly to the barrel, maximizing the energy transfer and stiff feel of the Pro-Stiff carbon handle.
All of these features add up to a bat that captures as much energy as you can generate and efficiently transfers it to the baseball — but all you have to do is swing it hard and watch it fly.
You'll not only see the difference that the Easton Encore Hybrid makes, but you'll hear it, too. The unique, cutting edge barrel design creates a one-of-a-kind sound off the bat that's sure to echo in a pitcher's ears as you're rounding the bases.
We topped this bat off with Flow-Tack grip, our most premium bat grip, to give you the ultimate combination of cushion and tack swing after swing. The 2023 Easton Encore Hybrid -3 BBCOR bat is the pinnacle of new innovation in both alloy and composite bat design. Get yours today and get an instant boost to your offense!

This bat is HOT!
I couldn’t wait to take some swings with the new encore hybrid. Man, I was not disappointed in the least! It has a MASSIVE sweet spot, maybe a little bit end loaded, but very smooth and easy to swing! It seemed like no matter where I hit it on the barrel the ball just JUMPED off! And the sound…just beautiful. Grip was very nice, two piece design makes it very soft, even on mis-hits, my hands never stung one time. Overall, this bat is fantastic! I couldn’t believe the exit velo on balls that weren’t hit in the perfect spot. It really does have a huge sweet spot and series pop! Can’t wait to carry it into the box and do damage!

Huge Pop, Very Stiff
I’ve been using this bat for a about a month in my garage and I’ve put quite a few dents in the wall with it. The pop is on the high end for Easton, and if you catch the barrel right you’ll send it far. The bat is incredibly stiff for a 2-piece, and this sometimes makes it unforgiving. The swing weight is also very heavy for an Easton 2-piece. If swing-weight and catching the barrel aren’t issues for you, this is a great bat to use. If you’re using this in cold weather, you’re really going to feel the sting. Overall, it’s a great bat that’ll provide power, but it is very different from other Easton 2-pieces that I have used.

Great power hitting bat
I got this in a sponsorship and have been hitting with it quite a bit. I can confidently say that the ball flies off bat when you hit it. I like the bat and would have rated it 5 stars if it weren’t for these two problems. This bat is very end loaded, this can be great for some people but since I am just transferring to a drop 3 it can be tough to swing. The other problem is the sting off the bat. If you don’t hit it well your hands are dead. It feels like a big power hitting one piece. I recommended wearing batting gloves if you are playing in the cold. I would recommended this to friends and family 100%.

This bat is amazing!!!
I am by no means a star baseball player. But, no matter who is using this bat you can see the time and quality that is taken in to make it. My swing feels so much more smoother and faster while i use this bat. I can also see the power that is unleashed once the bat smashes up against the ball. The design is sleek yet stylish with the blue Easton on top and the blue swirls on the grip tape. One last thing i love about this bat is that it's light.The bat that i have been using is a 29 oz bat and the bat that i received from you is a 30 oz. swinging this bat and the feel i get from using it is a by far way better then the bat that i have been using. This bat seems to be ever lighter.

Impressive performance!
I was very lucky to have the opportunity to demo this bat! The Easton Encore 2023 Hybrid has the power, feel, and overall performance that every baseball player looks for. While this bat suits a power hitter best, I, a versatile contact hitter, felt like I could crank the ball out of the park with this thing in my hands. The bat is end-loaded, perfect for hitting bombs. Pair that with a huge sweet spot and you have yourself an absolute weapon. When you barrel the ball up, the sound of the bat lets you know that the ball is gonna fly. In summary, this power hitter bat is perfect if your looking to smoke the ball as often as possible, but make sure you can handle its end-loaded qualities.

Sleek and Solid
This bat is very sleek and glides through the air. It has enough weight to make it effective at hitting but also not creating a lot of drag when swinging. I love the composite material and the sound it makes when a ball hits off of it. This size is great for my as a shorter woman and for some of my friends sons I have played with. This bat performs way better than a basic wood one and I can't see myself going back now. The grip is excellent on it and great quality too. I never would have thought that a simple bat could be a piece of fine craftsmanship.

Great design and Feel
I bought the 2023 Encore Hybrid bat a couple of months ago and was consistently hitting in the cage with it. I found out that the bat handles really well, I was making consistent hard contact with good command and velocity. The rubber knob helps with reducing sting on miss hits. The bat has a great design and bat grip. One thing that I found is that the bat has a smaller sweet-spot and was stiff for a two-piece, although the bat had solid pop. Overall great bat, especially for contact hitters and people who want to make easy solid contact.

Really great bat!
I signed up to be a tester for the new models and was sent this bat about a month ago. I’ve used it in a few college camps and a bunch of games. I am very impressed with the quality of the bat. lots of bats nowadays tend to be poor quality and develop issues quickly but this bat is very durable and sturdy. I have been very impressed with the pop this bat has it’s very well balanced and feels great in my hands. the ball just flies off if it when you square it up. overall very impressed with this bat would definitely recommend purchasing it
