no it doesn't. feels really light. its smaller then my blueroom but that's got loads of concaving. this hasn't any at all. but feels like its going to fly. do salix press their bats lightly??

light pressing is a myth - bats should be pressed properly and not over pressed.

Andrew Kember is as good at pressing willow as anyone.

Ive found my Hawk and Laver to be pressed more than my Warsop and BAS but they all fly off the middle albeit with different noises ...when I do middle it. There is a fine line but most skilled batmakers will get it right according to what they feel is right for the cleft.
