Yeah knocked it in well, I've had it a while just always as a second bat. I'm thinking of getting a new one maybe a tad heavier as I'm always on the very light end.

i have this very same problem 
i used to have GM purist and it was awesome, and i got a good 6 years service out of it until it passed away. i have since moved to a M&H S6, with a lower middle, which i thought would suit me bearing in mind we exclusively play on slow and low wkts -the problem is i feel like i am not middling the ball as much anymore.  it probably is all in my head, but confidence plays such a large part in batting.

It's very likely that regardless of the strips you play on, you are actually over estimating how low down the bat you hit the ball, and the middle on the S6 is just too low. All my bats have the area where I hit the ball most in roughly the same place, regardless of the strip on which they have been used and the middle position...

Yeah I've come to that realisation, so think it's time for a new bat, traditional shape, and middle!

Can relate to this 100% broke my Icon start of the season and now just not feeling comfortable with the Gray Nicolls. Don't have the same faith in it and the middle is no where near as good so I don't want to go over the top
