Glad you like it, I like the number of grains on this as well. The graping/blemish makes me say it isn't as nice as the others as they are clean from top to bottom.

Interesting you found it a little firm, I had them down as being soft but not overly soft. I've probably owned less than 15 bats in my life so a little less inexperienced than others on here.

I felt it was just right, which is why I said it was firmer than some like my Tour, which feel pretty soft! So yeah, I agree with it being soft, but not overly soft. There was a noticeable amount of denting when knocking it in, and that's how it should be with all bats.

You can only tell a cobra by the flaps on its face, so it's blatantly just a snake head and not a cobra .... I agree the sticker is not great. It will be changed.

Maybe you could design a nice sticker?

I personally like the stickers here.. Would look better though if it had A61 style stripes down back and python in bold along the back of the toe..

I will see if macbook art can whip something up - anything to get away from French

I like the image. Is the model of the bat a python or is it the brand name?

The stickers aren't the worst I've seen, although there looks to be some room for improvement.
But the profile, the willow quality and overall cosmetics look extremely lush to be honest!! 
If you ever want someone with a love for decent bats to have a couple of nets with it (to get a second opinion) then I'm here for you!  ;)

Tree python is probably the best looking of all the pythons. I guess an artists impression of one's face would look pretty good.
