That's for length reasons though, not width? Ain't you about 7ft tall?

Sorry back on topic.....

Liam, as some who has gone up as far as 3'4oz and down to 2'7oz now, here's my thoughts. Pickup is more important than actual weight, don't get to hung up on the odd oz. Yes 2'7 compared to 2'10 will make a difference but maybe find a light pickup in a 2'8 or 2'9? Also, have you seen my bats? They generally don't lack for profile and you do gain in bat speed.

As someone who had migrated from nearly 3 lb to 2 lb 10, you do notice an improvement in bat speed, with out loss of power, but then momentum is mv.....

Get the weight reduced mate!

I was unaware it was modified or had been over dried!! Sam never mentioned that. I wouldn't say it looked overly big either.

Dear Mr Wannabe88,

your current bats are fine. once you get out in the middle the adrenalin will mean you wont notice the difference.

the lighter bats are fine for a quick indoor net, but outside you will be craving the extra weight.

MAN UP

kind regards
Mr B Rockport.

Buzz: your probably right, it's a recurring theme with your posts :) thanks

And simmy: we can't all be pie eating slog monsters like you. Some of us like to be more cultured at the crease. ;)
