Title: Shorten handle
Post by: adam1312 on December 30, 2012, 11:39:43 AM

How can I shorten the handle, because I hold the bat low down and have some od the handle getting in the way at the top but the bale is an okay size and I have just bought it

Saw off the knob.
But be careful, it will affect the balance.

If you cut the handle the balance of the bat will be gone!

If the bat has a high middle and I'm using two or 3 grips, how much will the balance change?

What did you use, did you just saw some off or did you sand it down?
