Got the new XL and NSA has a new stamp for NSA. Now I see on here we have a few years of pre-2012 bats. Then I see on NSA website they are saying this is the last year for them so what is it. I wod like to pick up a new booger but not gonna waste my money if it's no good next year

Agreed...

In the past, when one association makes a change it takes a few years to trickle down through the rest of the Associations except for ASA... They have been on their own program since the beginning.

It seems like with this big change USSSA is making, the trickle down effect will happen much faster than in the past.

bat companies arent going to make a "nsa model" from here on out separate from a "utrip model"............withing 5 years the old bats are gonna be phased out and NSA will jump on that bandwagon once all anti-utrip sentiment dies down. They are playing on a cash grab for a year or two.

I realize that but how long can I swing my bats until NSA says no more. I know the new bats are gonna be pretty utrip/NSA standard but I play all NSA and asa I want a booger to swing this year and I can get them dirt cheap at this point

this is what makes NSA so good. many people have spent a lot of money on bats, so by 2014 a lot of those bats will be done or nearly done anyway while new bats will be well into circulation. great call by Mr.Horton.

NSA doesn't normally change things suddenly. Especially a major equipment change like that. I'd feel completely safe for the next couple of seasons with the current bats. Normally when they phase things out they give plenty of notice. If anything, they'll probably let you know a season before a change.

How big is NSA Canada? They have a "looser" standard and still have companies make a few bats for them. I'm sure ISA, NSA, and other small associations still using the old 1.20bpf are much bigger than NSA Canada. I'm sure they also outnumber guys that get to use senior bats.

NSA Canada is a completely different association than NSA here in the states. They have no affiliation. I have guys constantly try to use NSA Canada approved bats like the Jak'd Nemesis. They claim that since it has the NSA Canada stamp, it is ok to use. They are hoping that the other players and umpires do not have enough common sense to say "That says Canada, not USA", and hope they say it's ok to use. Then they get pissed at me for not allowing a bat that they know is illegal.
