If OP is talking about compression testing, PGF's posted bat testing protocol (http://www.premiergirlsfastpitch.com/doclib/PGF_BatTestingProtocol.pdf) uses 1400 psi for all non-linear bats instead of the model specific values that range from 1050 to 1400 on the ASA list (http://www.teamusa.org/USA-Softball/Play-ASA/Certified-ASA-Equipment/Non-Linear-Bat-Compression-Thresholds.aspx). The CF9 was finally added to the list on Monday, 7/25/16, so I don't know whether they were even being tested as a non-linear bat. The CF-series bats on the ASA list have a less restrictive threshold of 1300.
