Hi guys i have a question for you ive purchased a GM mogul players edition (GM NOW). Even though it was ready to go i decided to put some time into knocking it in and rounding off the edges. Long story short a surface crack has developed vertically following the grain up from the toe to 2/3 of the way up (didnt realise it was cracking cause of edge tape). Ive almost sanded the crack out of the bat, my question is if i sand the crack out will that fix my surface crack problem or will it be a weak spot in the wood were it will always happen now (p.s the edge that had the crack running up the grain was heart wood if that matters)
Thanks in advance for your advice.

Mate if u need advice specific to your problem, I would suggest creating a new thread. I think you have posted the same problem in SF bat repair thread as well. Create one thread and get all opinions in one place ...

If you sand out the crack it should resolve the problem and it shouldn't be a weak spot  if you do sand sand vertical  also ensure  you  don't create an uneven surface
