Ben Stokes' Stick
« on: November 22, 2018, 07:00:56 PM »
Just got this from the nice guys at B3.
Ben Stokes One day lighter.
Edge 38.68
Spine 62.77
Thoughts, kind of different to what he's got now with GM and what he used to have with NB. This is maybe from the earlier times of NB and B3.

Throws up an interesting question actually - if you were a pro in their position, would you rather have bats made to your specification or merely pick up shed loads and find some you like?  Suppose there's a chance they could mirror your profile and you could pick it up and hate it's feel.

I'd say Gunn and Moore ought to be able to make a top class cricket bat by now.  ;)

They definitely can, love GM. Just I love picking them up and taking block, paying s few shadow strokes etc, you get a feel for a stick really quickly I think. Sometimes you pick something up you think you don't want and find out suits you. Found that with a Zelos recently, speaking of GM.
