That looks an absolute belter, the only thing I dong like is the way the scuff sheet does not quite meet the sticker. But that really is the only thing I don't like, it's one hell off a bat!!

Dan - actually taking weight off the shoulders was what I was worried about because it puts more relative weight even further down. I think the thicker handle and the concaving helps more in the balance. But I'll let the experts weight in here.

Sorry to exhume a year old topic but with all the recent buzz around Laver and my nagging guilt at not having used this bat at all last season, I decided to give it a go today in a brief nets session. And am I glad I did! It is an amazingly forgiving bat with even some toe-ended drives going off quite well. And the (rare few) shots off the sweet spot sounded very very nice.  I'll report more after a proper net in a couple of weeks, but what I saw and heard today was very heart warming!

Admin - could you please move this topic to the L&W section? thanks

I was looking at this thread the other day

Is there a queue for this bat also?

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

Quite stupidly I was thinking of selling it but one of the forum members rightly warned me that I wouldn't get even close to the price I bought it for. And the new L&W deal on the forum is such a sweet one anyway. So I thought I'll keep this bat for a rainy day (figuratively speaking). I think today's session would settle any thoughts of selling it...for now. But if I can't use it enough in matches (its #3 on my list at the moment) I wouldn't want to hold on just to admire it and might put it up. This type of bat definitely deserves use and has already spent too much time in the closet!
