Title: The Edge, Bargain or Flop?
Post by: The_Bird on November 15, 2011, 11:01:46 PM
 
Has anybody had any experience with this and know what grade it is?,

Is this innovation gone barmy? I'm tempted to have a flutter just for the hell of owning an odd bat,
and at £60 as well

Handle not being in the middle was the purpose of this bat.

OP it was massive massive failure.

Understand it was the purpose Cover Drive. Was just pointing that out to Hads45 who didn't appear to see what the innovation was meant to be : )

An interesting website, GN Powerbow Extreme for £70inc delivery.
That looks like a good deal as I love the profile but would have to buy blind and hope for the best id imagine.

It's a very interesting website. I've never, ever had any order fulfilled from them. I've always had my money returned, but they've never had enough stock to cover what they show on the website.

Id take the SG from you in a flash  Tim if it wasnt a round handle :(

Sadly they don't do an Oval handle as standard. Looks like someone is going to get a bargain! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120807205770?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Use a bit of grip celetaped on the back ala the hgas method and ovals up a round handle lovely
