Some new willow....
« on: November 10, 2011, 12:25:59 PM »

Here is my new bat next to my Ayrtek.

It came from the Hosk and although it is wearing D&P stickers (which are rather nice) it is not a D&P.

It weighs in and 2lbs 10oz and has no more than 30mm edges, a nice profile with minimal concaving and 14 pretty straight grains along with some heartwood.

Simmy is kindly sorting the pictures out for me

1 shock absorba on one and 1 chevron over half a spiral on the ayrtek

Ow and 2 completely different positioned middles

Yes, haven't fully bonded with the Ayrtek yet, due to the weight it has more severe concaving which my last 3 bats haven't had.

Both bats, along we my Talisman which I hope to get back soon, will get a through test before the season starts and the strongest 2 will be kept and the third be sold
