Title: Bat Tape ?
Post by: mussaduq on October 11, 2013, 09:33:24 AM

Hi guys, bought this from a medical shop and was wondering if this is the correct bat tape, it's not the plastic type and can be torn easily. ? Should I apply it to my bat ? If this isn't the right one then which is ? Is the purpose of bat tape and scuff-sheet the same ?

Haha, is this a joke? Its not even close to being the right stuff. For a start, if that's medical tape, its like sticky back toilet paper and just as strong! It would do nothing for your bat!
