Demarini's new bat has an 8-sided flat handle with four sides being wider than the other four sides. I know the bat has already passed NFHS's inspection process since it is BESR certified, but it seems like it contradicts their own rules.
On a side note, Reebok's new Vector-O bat has holes in the handle. It is supposed to reduce drag and increase bat speed by allowing air to pass through the handle.
If you've not seen either one, a google search will find them for you.

Both of those bats were discussed during our Fed. meeting this weekend and they are illegal for high school play.
