They have been arguing about that in Illinois for some time. The IHSA even had a study a couple years back, They had a couple conferences use wood in conference games only and compare stats, injuries etc. They concluded no advantage to metal. The city council in Chicago is bantering about outlawing metal. There is to much money involved by the manfacturers for this to ever happen. I would love to see metal go by the wayside just for the fact most kids do not swing the bat properly with metal, thay can just flail away and get a hit. I think this is the reason some studs in high school and college do not cut it in the pros they cannot adjust.
