OUTLAWED VOODOO'S

Anyone have information, or hear about Voodoo's being outlawed?

Starting in 2011-2012, high school players will have to conform to the new NFHS rules set forth regarding composite and aluminum bats.  See [u]www.nfhs.org[/u]

In summary, the composite and aluminum bats have to meet the standards of Batted Ball of Coefficient Restitution (BBCOR), which is the current approval of the NCAA.  All such bats must be labeled with such approval.  There is much more info on the NFHS web site.  Check it out.

According to NFHS web site, the only composite bats that meet these certifications for 2010-2011 season, are DeMarini Vendetta and CF4.  All other composite bats will not be allowed.  I am sure more approvals will be forth coming.  But the bat must be labeled as such.  So looks like time to go bat shopping.

The voodoo is an aluminum bat with a composite handle so I don't think it falls under the composite category.

This is correct.......the ruling applies to composite barrel bats.

The Voodoo is a two piece with a composite handle and an aluminum barrel.
