Title: ca 12000 TRD Dilshan
Post by: japanoj on December 24, 2011, 11:33:06 PM

Hi guys

I recently bought a CA 12000 TRD, amazing ping.

Only problem is its a little too heavy for me , it weighs around 2.12lbs.

I am thinking of reducing the weight on the bat?

1. does anyone recommend someone who can do this?

I am looking to get it down to 2.8-2.9lbs?

Is this possible?

It is possible to take the weight off, but you will not be left with much off a bat as 4-5oz is a hell lot of wood to take off. May alter the profile and the middle position as well.

You can chat with H4L or SAF to see what they recommend.

Whereabouts are you based? There may be some bat makers near to your place to who you can take the bat and discuss the options in person.

The mods may deem this unsuitable, but it may help you or anyone else looking to find a batmaker.
