About this item
Description
Living by your mantra gives you a clear mindset and direction for your life. We took the same approach in crafting the 2025 Rawlings Mantra Fastpitch Softball Bat! Our mantra for this bat was to improve comfort, increase power, and have a bold, sharp design. You’ll feel all three every time you step onto the plate. Inside the barrel, the 2025 Mantra features a revamped three-step design. Its inner barrel enhanced performance beyond the previous model's sweet spot, creating opportunities for more damage up and down the bat. Additionally, this bat has a thinner outer layer for lower barrel compression, translating to an ultra-hot hitting surface capable of producing elite exit velocities. For maximum potential, the barrel is made from an In/Tense Carbon Composite, or the highest-performing and most durable composite material. The result is a bat that allows for more power and consistency with every swing. The 2025 Mantra also features an improved ergonomic and lightweight feel, helping batters feel more comfortable at the plate while generating higher bat speed. Thanks to these changes to the Mantra, you can experience maximum barrel control in every swing you take. That’s why some of the games’ top players, including national champions like Jayda Coleman, love the new Mantra! Elevate your game with the 2025 Rawlings Mantra Fastpitch softball bat and live out your mantra to the fullest.

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.
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.
At broke in 2 days 60 swings

My Daughter had the mantra plus for about 2 years was an awesome bat and she loved it till it broke during a tournament. Purchased the new mantra 3.0 as we were told it was the latest and was replacing the mantra plus. We purchased that day and she has been hitting with it for 6 weeks now and it has no pop. Very disappointed in the bat and her high school coach made her stop using it. Took to local play it again and they stated they didn't even purchase any of these bats new because they were so poorly reviewed.
Bat with a lot of pop!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.
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.
Good, but a little different.

I was proto testing the bat. Found it had great pop on the barrel of the bat, but the sweetzone I have found to be smaller than something like a ghost. Better pop, smaller zone. The weight was different, almost like it was lighter than what it said(-10), but I wasn't complaining because it was great with faster pitchers, getting around quicker. Also, it wasn't that it was actually lighter, just felt like it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

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.
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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.
Best bat on the market
