What size weight are you referring to? I've seen plenty for sale. The new THT100 alloy Rivals have been out since the beginning of December. I received my son's 30/20 3 weeks before Christmas.
Check with one of our sponsors like Ronald at Elite Sport (right side nav bar). |

Apparently there are significant delays in manufacturing the new high school BBCOR bats. Spoke yesterday with an Easton rep and sounds like it may be late February before their BBCOR bats are available. |

Yeah, that's right. Sounds like BBCOR is the standard for colleges beginning this year and comes into play 2012 for high schools. One issue, though, is if you buy a BESR bat it'll be useless by next year. |

i was looking for a 27/17 Rival. No one on the internet or sponsors on this site had one or KNEW when they would get it. I walked into Dicks sporting goods last night at the Mall of Georgia and they had 3! |

I have two for Demo only if anyone wants to use them they can come in and sign them out for up to 48 hours no charge.
Thanks-Ronald
**Should have my 27/17's this week and we sell them for $155 not $180 like DICKS.

Thanks for the info. I had looked high and low and finally found one at Dicks online.I ordered it Sunday night and have it in my hand today. The 28/18's were hard to find. |

Unless you want your players to be at a distinct disadvantage this year, do not use a BBCOR bat until you are mandated to do so. |

I received a Baseball Savings catalog in the mail yesterday and they had a few BBCOR bats. I think there was a Vexum, Rival and one other. |

Well we decided to get the 2011 Rival BESR model, cant be at a disadvantage this year lol. We got the 31/28 man it is balanced and has lots of pop!! Great bat for $199, bad thing is we can only use it this year!!! |
