Right had a good look at a Instinct and seen some rather nice H4l and seen a few others may i ask is it a trend in bats or is there a performance reason why toes are not finished as i call it.

Ul have to explain that one save with ur toe finishing fetish??

[procricket]

the spine going down to the toe mate i seen it on the forum and in a few other bats just wondering why

your profile has it and a few others

Just wondering why it has become popular well on the forum brands and i see a few gm doing it as well

does it make the middle longer or something just wondering why

[Ayrtek Cricket]

Bat design and Fact Bristol tracks are in general slow and low led me towards selecting this profile of bat. More meat behind the toe of the ants as a Bristol born brand had a particular issue with the toes on their bats breaking as an area of weakness

all the bats ive bought from the forum have this trend i believe its known as the whale tail

[tim2000s]

Not sure it's a huge issue. Bit more wood when digging out a yorker!

Low middles are the way to go the more wood the better I say

[Canners]

Have to agree there roco, I can't say I've seen many bats outside the forum where the spine continues all the way down to the spine....

Maybe were just lucky

Always been a fan of a bit of whale tail personally...
