Title: Favour to ask re GM Hero DXM
Post by: 03jaworf on January 27, 2016, 10:42:18 PM

Evening all,

Bit of a long shot but has anyone got a GM Hero DXM laying around at home? If possible I'm after some pictures of it please, (profile/face/spine) along with the weight and edge/spine measurements. I'm intending to use these to attempt to have a forum sponsor make a copy for me as I absolutely loved it and was gutted when it broke.

I'm sure I still had it at home somewhere but can't find it at all!

Cheers in advance!

Orange one or yellow one, they were very different shapes

The yellow one, I think it was around 2009?

My guess is that it is a very similar shape to the epic

Is probably your best bet - if that link doesn't work - look at the 2009 GM book of cricket in here http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=36453.0 (http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=36453.0)

the key bat information is on page 2 and the bat is on page 6. Looks a lovely shape.

Seen a couple of Hero's close up and from memory they didn't have much concaving like the Epic.

Both are harrows, but I think the GM harrow shapes are generally the same as the SH ones, just scaled down!

thanks all for your help, I didn't realise the harrows were exactly the same shape I'll take a look.

Much appreciated!
