Title: Standard density of an oversized cleft?
Post by: Jogetnz on February 08, 2016, 11:53:52 PM: Sorry if this has been discussed before and I may be a little confused.

A normal cleft come in at 400 as the average for the shapes vs weight, does this also apply to to the oversized clefts, do they have an average density that bats weights are calculated from?

Its actually easy.. Suspend your bat under water.. Water dispurt = mass. Just remeber to weigh it before you do this, as the weight might be altered by the water :)

Water displaced = volume! Clefts are cut to a known volume then weighed, job done.
