After seeing reviews from here, I contacted B&S to buy a Scorch. Gary sent me the pictures of Scorch bats and pictures of other new bats he had in stock as well. I really liked the Supreme profile and decided to get that over Scorch.
Thanks to Gary -- he patiently answered all of my questions (close to 20-30 emails). Received my bat 3-4 days ago; I must say this - packing was super nice. I have not had any nets so far with the bat yet but am very happy with the way it feels and pings. It picks up slightly (very slightly) heavier than my Warbird (which is 2.12 as well) but still lighter than my other 2.12s. Also, got a Duffel bag which is one of the very nicest ones I have seen -- for that price.
Weight: 2 lbs 12 oz (Have not measured and confirmed this myself yet)
Grains: 11
Edge: 39-40mm
Concaving: Minimal
Handle: Semi-Oval
Ping: Good
Jealousy mode: I was very happy with the bat until I saw another post from Sivlar13 -- http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=39048.0 (http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=39048.0) -- who got a even better looking bat than I did ;)

Looks amazing that! Loving the shape!
-
Lovely bat. I think this bat looks better than the other review posted :)
-
That is a stonker of a bat mate, looks an absolute beaut!! Those Supreme profiles are insane and pick up so well. Let us know how it goes in the nets pal.
-
Stunning grains. I'd be very happy with that bat.
-
Very pleased to see your gear arrived (finally ) apologies for that .
The weight will be spot on 2.12 hopefully it goes as well as it looks keep me posted
-
Jealousy mode ?? What're you talking about mate ?!! It's a class act you got there.
-
Gorgeous looking stick.
I still regret selling my supreme, and would have no hesitation in getting another( and will at some stage)
-
Another B&S beast! Do the guys leave any of the lookers in South Africa or are they all shipped over here?
Really like the profile, a mate has the LE from a couple of years ago and it's superb. Can I ask as to the shoulder and toe edge sizes for an idea on profile. Thanks
-
Awesome looking bat mate. Dont see many of these down under. Have thought very hard over the last few years whether to get one but always found a way not to. Hope it serves you well
-
Great pics and great looking bat. Does it feel bottom heavy at all? How does it tap up?
-
These B&S sticks are all looking quite supreme
-
Stunning bat mate.
-
Stunning bat, B&S are churning out some beauties this season
-
I'd echo all the above comments, that's an absolute stunner!
-
nice grains and profile. The grains are very tempting.
-
Very jealous!!! Looks a stunner!
