Alex, can you give us a bit of an insight into how the GN Grading system works?

We have:

L.E.
Players
Extreme Pro
Carbo
5 Star
4 Star

You took me through it on the stand at Lord's but it might help some of the guys on here to understand it a little better.

I think you have it right on this one. I think it will be a huge seller during the next 12months.

You are most welcome!

Inbox cleared

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!
