Title: Woodstock TDF Platinum
Post by: legger123 on April 04, 2012, 09:24:08 PM
Today I received my Woodstock TDF. Order through John as a part of Sponsor, he's a very good guy and his service is amazing, aswell as his bats. So the bat, weighs around 2'9oz, looks a great bit of heartwood. I counted 16/7 grains, and edge sizes at its maximum of 32mm. Had a little knock up earlier and the bat flies, need to knock the bat in for an hour as John said just to bed the bat in, will look to get this done ready for my first game. If there is anything you more you'd like to know, then just ask or pop me a message. So here's some pictures of the bat :D ;

Had a little knock up tonight in the nets, very impressed and seems to fly, even with an old ball :)
