BBCOR and power numbers in HS baseball

[Dingerbird]

It seems to me the hitters have made adjustments and the power numbers are up from last year and closing the distance on BBCER batting production. Do you think BBCOR bats are effecting hitting as much as expected?

I personally think it is because the BBCOR bats are older now. The older they are, the more flex they will have. If you look closely, you will notice that most of the time the balls "jump" off the older BBCOR bats better.....

I have no data to back it up, but home run production seems to still be down significantly compared to the old bats.

I don't see to many players using older bats? With the way things are today, it seems like each year kids get new bats and those are the ones they use.

There is a huuge difference between besr and bbcor bats. Besr bats have such a great feeling when you hit with them and the ball jumps off the bat. I thinm becoming more accustomed to the bat has helped the numbers and hitters but there is a very big difference
