a kid got killed in Georgia with a BESR composite bat. they are trying to prevent that from happening again so BBCOR batshave a lot less pop and "trampoline affect". or they don't jump off the barrel like BESR bats
Yes they do. All Bats need to be besr certified for high school baseball.
Yes, onlyBBCOR certified bats will be used in the 2012 baseball season In high school. However, the BBCOR bats are terrible. I prefer you save your money and buy a wood bat.
No, BBCOR bats are required for high school baseball. BBCOR stands for "Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution."
i heard that the V12 will be outlawed due to the ridiculous amount of pop it has
Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution
everythng that isnt bbcor
Yew: Not sure what that is but i googled it with no luck New: Yes there are 2012 BBCOR bats out now.
It is basically an original aluminim/metal bat that has no composite pieces in it or half composite pieces. Now for little leauge, babe ruth, and highschool BBcor bats must be used, although in AAU which is more competitve and considered travel baseball you can use composite bats
Miami Hurricanes are using Nike BBCOR bats.
Yes, -3 bats (which signifies the oz compared to length of bat. ie 33inch 30oz bat is -3) These bats must now adhere to the bbcor rules on bat performance. Best bbcor bats on market are the Akadema Apocalypse, Rawlings 5150 and Easton Stealth.
Yes
The Henrico county schools in the Richmond VA area require -3 bats. These kids are 6th, 7th and 8th graders.
