As far as grading goes I cannot post on here all the specifics, I can tell you what we are looking for though.
Legend: The Mutts Nuts, biggest, lightest, tightest, will be graded separately to everything else
LE: As above but with some marking
Players: Slightly wider grain but with marking in the strike zone, has to offer something in performance that overcomes knot/pin marks
Ex.Pro: As players but with more dis-colouring, must be huge and heavyweight
From here it gradually decreases in cosmetic quality. Our in house grading works in a way that you can find LE/EX.Pro/Players all within the one graded stack, it is down to the bat makers to make the decisions during making.
Sorry I can't be more specific!
