So my plans of having a new bat free season has gone pretty poorly with the purchase of another bat before the season has even begun down here. :-[
Few pics

Yeah it is pretty nice. I saw a weight sticker that said 2'5 so I picked it up just for a laugh and that was it, I had to have it lol
-
Is it a Harrow?? That's stupidly light for a SH
-
Check it is not made of balsa wood or fairy dust! That is crazy light!
-
I got it right!
-
It is very odd, but I generally go off feel and not on weight. To me the pickup feels similar to my gm icon which weighs in dead on 2'9
-
what's the edge size and spine height. Trying to work out if some of the mass has been removed.
-
Edges 40mm spine 58mm if I've measured them correctly ???
-
2.48 thats crazy! I didnt even think anyone made SH bats that light anymore. What a great find.
-
It doesn't sound hollow when you tap it up, does it? ;)
-
Thats the benefit of CAD :) To me with a machine made bat the size is the constant and weight varies due the variation in the wood. I always tell myself that if I want a light bat that is roughly the same size as heavier bat go for machine made but I have a lot of opinions and none of them right I am told :-[
Very nice purchase there mate, hope it serves you well.
-
Amazed at the size for that weight. Tried it in the nets yet?

That sounds right mate. A team mate of mine picked up an Original LE Mogul at 2'7, I got an Original Six6 at 2'7.
I think GM just found some perfect timber for light bats this season.
Still, 2'48 still works out at only 2'5& a bit, after oiling and knocking in which is still, super, super light.
-
Wow, that's extremely light! I expected it to be lighter than the normal weight range of Moguls thanks to Driguard, (Saves around 0.7-1 ounce) but never expected it to be by that much! Looks to be a cracking bat, hope it serves you well! The pick up index must have been 0 on this one!

Get us a look at the Six6! Last time I saw, the Youtube channel was only up to picking up a Flare
