Copying a bat
« on: May 29, 2016, 01:05:43 PM »

I am, at the moment, very tempted to get my copies of a couple of bats I own as they are either bust or going that way. I have just bought two Legget's but I have found them a touch heavy (currently in the airing cupboard to dry out) so have repaired my Impulse as best I can and am using that again.
Bats I want to get copied are my Ice Sub Zero from 2009, 2lb9oz, first senior bat I owned and an absolute rocket, and my Impulse 950, which stickerless weighs between 2lb7 and 2lb8.
My concern is a copy would not meet my hopes and be disappointing, anyone copied bats and felt this?
Where is a good place to go for a custom? I'm based in South Bucks.

When I say in the airing cupboard, they were for a week to ten days but it had no effect whatsoever. Just sat in my car boot atm

Most bat makers should be able to copy.  send them down to me and I'll copy them for you.
