It's funny that you think they are small. That's not how I would have described them.

I agree. Andrew knows what he is doing, making exceptionally functional objects d'art.

Small bats?! I laughed out so loud reading those comments, Andrew is a legendary batmaker so as Tim said he knows what he is doing.

Love the bat!! However, no one commented on The Hunger Games trilogy in the photos? Has the literary standards of mother Britannia sunk that low?  ;))

It is not easy to make a 2.6 bat finished in SH size, that would mean the bat is only 2.2 or 2.3 before binding, grip and stickers. Would love to see the profile photos of a 2.6 bat.

We all need a comic from time to time... Something to flick through quickly when The Sun just won't do...

I wondered if someone might spot it...

Was this a blind purchase Tim or did ProDirect give you some pics?

Yah, yah, yah I understand. You still should have said it was the wifes/girlfriends whatever. My wife loves it, I mock her as much as I can without having to sleep on the couch. :))

Again, great bat at a great price!
