Title: What to do?
Post by: imogzyboy on November 28, 2013, 09:35:26 PM
Hey guys decided to use the GM purist myself and to start with it went very well then all of a sudden this happened, it could be nothing but I wanted your expert views on what you would do? If
It was a cheap bat I wouldn't be extremely bothered but kinda dissappointed for this to happen :(

Looks like you've tried to hit a very hard ball with a lot of force. It is pretty easy to repair effectively. Speak to your retailer. :)

Poor old balls can cause damage too.


Did you do any knocking in?

I did around 2 hours with a mallet and then an hour with bowling machine I thought it was enough. :/

Any seem marks visible on the face? If so, then needs more knocking in.

I have looked under the scuff itself and there are none in the wood very strange as there's a couple on the scuff sheet :s I just don't know if it's worth taking back to talent cricket
