Looks like a Purist with fat edges. I love it so much. Next bat. It will be. This.

What do you think I'd call it?

[procricket]

B3 Crown bat mate or the bat in the customer review bud...

or 1271 if your talking to streaky

Nice looking bat.

Can someone walk me though the benefits of having so much wood high up the bat? It is an interesting change compared to bats like the Laver Ultra that attempt to take as mch wood away from that area.

It takes the weight up the bat mate closer to the hands and giving a better balance and pick up mate as i have said bud this picks up better than my offset edged b3 bud 2oz lighter

Interesting. So taking your bat and thinning down the first third of the bat and in doing so dropping the weight by 2oz would make it pick up heavier?

[procricket]

in theory because it further away from your power mass (hands and arms)hence lower middle bats tend but not always pick up heavier depends where the center of mass and other mass in relation.

if that made sense

2oz is theoretical as well it hard to imagine weight or it is for me but it picks up better than some of my lighter bats.

Also the pendiloum sp  theory .

Well it's interesting, I'll give you that. For sure seen some pros using the same idea. I'd like to play with the idea and work out if (for me) those extra couple of ounces are better served high up the blade, or removed completely.

Better people can answer it better than me mate

Top day out Dave and like you said great genuine guys. Be getting a bat sorted with them as soon as I get my other one back from M&H. Slept for ages yesterday. Did you get in trouble with the Mrs?

[procricket]

Yes the act of riot was defiantly read mate 14 hour cricket day

[jamielsn15]

Christ on a bike I thought my new B3 was a beast - that is epic, what a bat!  For what it's worth to everyone, I echo what dave says about the service and the B3 guys; 10/10.

I told Streaky I'd be back - it may be for a '1271'!

Top, top bat Dave, I don't need to wish it well, that thing will get you runs, carry you to bed and bring you a hot chocolate...

and I even like the colours... 

[procricket]

Been knocking it in possibly for 3 hours so far it going to be a belter for sure in every respect.

It going to have a little run out very soon

Shame there no bat off's I could let a few have a hit with it

[toenails97]

Are you coming along Sunday then pal?

[procricket]

Yes I think I will mate you can buy some kit bud
