V(ball exit) = Vbat( BESR + .5 ) + Vball( BESR -.5)

One thing that worries me is, if I'm not mistaken, the NFHS does not
verify or certify the BESR of bats. They simply take the word of the manufacturer. Who's to know if the testing done on the bats is accurate?
Also, wasn't there a former employee (engineer?) of one of the bat
companies that claimed that the BESR is BS ?
