What would the weight for these shapes be using a 400 density cleft?

I'm foaming at the mouth over that 2nd shape!

Sort of reminds me of an old school Purist that's been pumping iron  :)

Tempo MK3

I imagine it's a bit lighter than the first shape!

@Doctor - are you running a shape request service now? I think Dave's Typhoon needs to a bit less edge and a little more spine ;-)

I think the Warner bat has a slightly lower middle, just seen highlights of today's play and he literally destroyed the second new ball with that monster.

Post by: Bats_Entertainment on November 13, 2015, 11:23:41 PM
Is the point being made, that David Warner is now using a bat similar to the bottom one, rather than similar to the top one (as previously)?

I think the point is, b3 want to sell bats, so are showing that they can make the profiles Warner currently and previously used.

Here you go @App999 fresh off the CNC (she's big......)

This shape has been tweaked loweing the swell slightly as requested from the design in the previous picture.

Also @App999 - we have those new white stickers just in - do you want me to put those on?

@smilley792 - on the hunt for your cleft now.....

Has anyone asked for Warners profile in 2.6 yet?

By the size of that cleft, it looks like it should weigh in at 3ib 10oz!! But I dare say that The Doc will work his magic and it will end a lot lighter!  :)

Wowwww. She is a beauty. Yes please would love the white stickers. Love your work.
Having watched the all stars game I saw Shane warnes GN fusion. Looks like a fusion between warners big edge and small edge profile. Might hit you up on that shape if you guys can get make it to those specs at a decent weight ;-)

Out of interest, why would Warner switch from the top bat shape to the new one?  Anything other than general evolution of a bat shape/chat with his bat maker?

Lack of clefts available to make the former?

Hmm not sure. But apparently he uses a different bat for each innings in a test. Maybe someone can clarify that

My guess would be was that the bat got made -with big edges but finished too heavy for him - and therefor lost some edge to reduce the weight. As I said that would be my guess.

Theres some huge bats coming out of Bullwell at the minute!

When finished would it be possible for a few pics of this profile vs the other big bats maybe Pepsi &  mullanator profile please (did I see a post about a square toed Pepsi?)

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Warner isn't the only bloke to change to the small edges and high spine..

Voges and smith both have had tweaks to the bat shapes ahead of the New Zealand series..

Not sure why though

Kiwi bowlers have been hitting the middle often enough that they don't need big edges.
