IT WAS YOU!!! >:( Great stuff Rob, I have been wanting to see pictures of these two colossal bats together. Which reminds me that I owe you some pictures of that Woodworm, which I shall snap right now! 8)

The Tempo looks slightly fuller, which may be due to the flatter face, but you would expect that since it is a tiny tiny bit heavier!

The H4L is around an ounce heavier than the M&H, both have similar edge size of around 25mm and spine height of around 70mm. The finish on the H4L is beautifull, really nice finish. The flat face is not as flat looking as Lavers, maybe it is the bow in the h4l bat that make it seem so flat.

Yep, sorry bud it had to be done. I think i will remove one or both of the bottom stickers on the h4l, as i dont think they are needed.

Sterling picture comparison, many thanks for it mate.

Do you notice any difference in pickup amongst these two?

A couple of awesome bats there mate!! Seeing them together makes for a nice comparison.
Fair to say I'm a little jealous :)

Very similar sticks, but in the profile shot the Distinction just looks much nicer, I'm not sure why, perhaps the stickers play a part, anyone else agree?

My tempo is just under 2'12 and the edge profile looks a little different and comes in near 30mm. Is it the camera angle?

I'm with you mate. I'd side with the Distinction in this face-off; the middle looks a little lower, too.

I think it's the sort of roman/birds nose that the Tempo has at the toe that puts me off. Purely an aesthetics thing though I guess.

Either bat will see you right.

How do you choose?

The M&H looks more concaved in the pictures. Is that correct or the camera angle?

D7's is a flat faced one and that might be the reason ???

The m&h is very slightly more concaved but the spine is more rounder where as the h4l is more angled
