Title: B&S GP274 Pro
Post by: objcpp on April 09, 2017, 08:27:37 PM

I have been very keen on trying out GP274 profile bats ever since I bought a Supreme http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=39131.msg620647#msg620647 (http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=39131.msg620647#msg620647) from Gary last year. After having tried H4L, CA and Supreme from B&S, I decided to get a GP274 as the first one for this season. Spoke to Gary about my spec and within a few days he shared some pictures of a few Pro clefts. And, as usual, awesome job with the final quality, shipping and handling. I absolutely adore the finish of the bat and the feel. It pings really, really nice.

I have just started using lighter bats; hence, I feel bad for not purchasing something in 2' 9" range.

Weight: 2' 13"
Edge: 38 mm
Grains: 10-12

Its a fantastic looking bat!

My only concern is it is heavier than your other B&S and looks smaller!

But, I hope it goes well for you!

Am looking to get one of these after my new CC arrives!

Think that might be the best grain/shape/sticker set up I've seen for ages.

Could have hoovered up though...  :D

No

Is this one of the TK handmade bats?

It is a TK made GP274  Bat the only difference is I asked Tim to Round the edge that's the reason why the bat does not look as big as objcpp first GP
