Title: BDM Extreme Special Edition
Post by: joymarvin on November 25, 2016, 11:12:42 AM: Hi All - Purchased this bat a while ago ( 4 to 5 months) but did not get the time to review it due to other responsibilities. Started playing cricket back in the late 90s with a BDM bat so definitely have a soft corner for it. So I have decided to contact Aditya Mahajan of BDM looking for a players grade bat. Then he told me that I have a bat which is special and its the top grade. Massive for its size, extremely light and i immediately snapped it up. Refer below specs and pictures of this special bat. Thanks.

BDM Extreme Special Edition
Weight - 2.8.9
Edges - 43mm approx
Pickup - light
Ping - Pingy
Grains - 12 to 13

Must be bottom heavy.

It doesn't pickup bottom heavy. The balance is immaculate.

I doubt it but will give it to you since you have the bat. And also, two players may feel the same bat differently. A bottom heavy feel for me, may not exist for you, and vice a versa.

But how is the handle diameter? Usually they insert a narrow handle to make the bat look light on scale.
