You sound kinda like the guy who voted against Gwynn and Ripkin for the HOF.
RZ we've disagreed on this issue in the past, but I'm finding myself agreeing with just about everything you've said here. It is more about the big field and less an issue for the 12U game.
On the other hand, there are still lots of options at that age (talent wise) and 3-1 games might have a big appeal to many, especially young pitchers! Shouldn't we be
just just as concerned with developing young arms as we are with developing young hitters? I'm not saying wood only at the younger ages, just options for wood only.
And as was pointed out, the kids want so much to emulate their idols. Since those guys use wood, if it were marketed to them appropriately the kids themselves would gravitate towards using wood. JMHO
