Quick question
« on: July 12, 2013, 04:40:10 PM »

Alright lads,
Got a quick question for you all, does anyone know if newbery your bats come in light weights? Just I'm using a 2'8 salix at the moment and really like the look of the tour profile

Cheers
Tony

vast amount of wood in the hitting zone and should provide a large middle as they arent concaved either.

unless you have a very light cleft would be very hard to made a Tour profile at 2.8 due to the lack of concaving. Salix offer the tourque that has a very similiar profile and they start at 2.10. Andrew may be able to make you one of interested at 2.8 but it would be quite a small bat in terms of edges etc. Newbery advertise on there website that they now do custom visits so maybe you could get a custome Tour that way from a very light cleft

canners has a 2.8 shaped bat. it is sensational.
it is a blank bat, rather than a Newbery, but may have had similar origins.
