What weight do you use?
« on: January 11, 2012, 08:55:55 PM »

As the title says, what weight do you use? Would be intersecting to see what everyone uses, I reckon 2lb 9oz - 2lb 10oz will be most popular.

2.11 to 3lbs is a huge bracket and will skew the results somewhat I would think!

I go on pickup and feel to be honest.

Although I buy/say 2.8ish but they are well over 2.10

Current bat is 2.8. Feel most comfortable around the 2.10 mark.

Is this finished weight after grip set up etc???

People don't realise how easy the weight adds up on a bat.....

I know payers that think they're using 2.7's but if you weighed them they'd be closer to 2-10

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

Yeah, sorry if I didn't make that clear, it's what weight you use (like in a game) not what it's advertised as.

My preferred final finished weight is 2lb9oz / 2lb10oz but may use a 2lb11/2lb12 if the pick-up is good.

Weight also depends on the profile I use mid or low middle

I'd be interested to see what weight bat people think they use and the actual weight of their bats
