Bought this beauty couple of weeks ago. After little bit of knocking with mallet went to nets to play with old ball. After couple of balls one took the inside edge and put a big dent. I think bat is lightly pressed ( opposite of my GM 606). It had minor crack with I filled with gorilla glue. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks

Not much u can do now. Superglue, sandpaper, seal the crack, stick some edge tape to protect it

You can probably get the dent to pop back out using a hot iron and wet cloth. Takes only 5 mins. Then glue cracks, sand and knock the edges properly with a mallet :)
