2.11. slightly bottom heavy, which is just the way i wanted it, as that helps my front foot strokes.

Looks lovely. Very similar to one if not one of the ones they were working on when I was there last week. Get my XB900 next week  :)

I was hit into the trees against Barnt Green with one of these  >:( . They all seem to go well and sound different to normal Hawk bats. Hope you get loads with it.

That looks a beauty! Very green with envy!

Hawk bats I have seen always seemed "hard" but that looks a cut above any i've seen players use before.

Hope it serves you well

The general consensus seems to be they are quite hard pressed and take a while to get going but when they do they fly. The LE and the Players are pressed softer than the Pro and Original.

wasnt there another lad (sponsored) on here who went to hawk and they said to him that they didnt want any exposure on the forum. i know they have no right to stop a paying customer from posting but you'd think they would want as much exposure as possible. especially as its a quality product!
