I like it but feel that it could be thicker at the toe?

Interesting concept.

Seems an extreme way to get more weight to the sweet spot, yet keep a full blade.

Can't help thinking there are easier less ugly ways to do it though?

Abit like the mongoose, and to an extent, your helmets, would the looks not put off perspective buyers?


I'm happy to trot to the middle with the clubs mmi3 and ignore the sniggers and sledging from the opposition, but many off my team mates are "too embarrassed" to do this. Even though they know it's a gun, as they use it in the nets,

Can't help this will have the same effect.

People talking about it being difficult to make... I say the opposite. Oblivion with a few cut outs, much easier than it might seem.

Still... I like it!

like the cut outs but how far down do they extend? Looks like a low middle bat designed for driving.

Might be a little toe heavy if it had more meat at the toe! It looks a good profile, maybe something which has a similar concept to the GM Luna, and will probably be a better seller too!

Is power shaping when you use a saw instead of a drawknife?

Having picked up a prototype one quite a while back, i have to say i really liked it, it was nicely balanced and picked up amazingly. I think the looks will put some people off, but its nice to see GN doing something a bit different.
