Sorry can't see it myself, unless the Flare has changed dramatically from the shows. Purist was always a pretty traditional English shape, at first glance to me the Flare looked like a hybrid of Asian and Australian.

tom i will agree with you i have a brand new flare sat here infront of me and the purist its replaced is nothing like this.

It is however a beautiful bat, very well made with a fairly high middle i will get some pics up.

Looks nice.

Those sticker are the best in my eyes.
The toe looks really thin but all in all looks a very nice bat.

the toe does look thin, love the stickers, best gunn and moore sticker ever.

went to the local shop today with intentions of buying a new GM 808 with birthday money next week and after careful deliberation i decided to elect for the Apex. The flare is beautifully looking but i cant see it being too practical in english pitches with the middle so high up, the apex had nicer balance overall and had a much larger middle and .... yeah

I think I'd go with the Apex too, looks better IMO.
