PRESENTATION OUTLINE

BBCOR vs. BESR bats

WHAT IS EXIT VELOCITY?

THE MEASURE OF HOW FAST A BALL IS HIT OFF OF A BAT AND HOW MUCH FORCE WAS GENERATED

WHAT IS A BESR BAT

BESR STANDS FOR ( BALL EXIT SPEED RATIO ) AND THE BAT USES TRAMPOLINE AFFECT TO LAUNCH A BASEBALL

HOW IS BESR MEASURED

FORMULA: V EXIT/ V BALL X BAT = BESR

BESR LAUNCH TIME

A BALL CAN REACH 108MPH, PITCHERS ONLY HAVE .375 MILLISECONDS TO REACT TO A PITCH

WHAT IS BBCOR

BBCOR (BALL BAT COEFFICIENT RESTITUTION) THE METAL IS STIFFER SO THE TRAMPOLINE AFFECT IS MUCH LESS

HOW IS BBCOR MEASURED?

VR OVER VI ( I + R ) + R + CBALL = BBCOR

TRAMPOLINE AFFECT

BBCOR HAS A .5 TRAMPOLINE AFFECT WHICH IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN A WOOD BAT SO THIS IS VERY LOW

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?

BBCOR CAN SLOW A BALL DOWN 5% COMPARED TO BESR THIS GIVES PITCHERS MORE REACTION TIME

DISADVANTAGES TO THE BBCOR

RUNS HAVE GONE DOWN AND HOMERUNS HAVE DECREASED 35%

ADVANTAGES TO BBCOR
