I have never measured the spine height on a bat.

Does it matter?

P.s. Ross has come up with the easiest way so far!!

Just had ago at measuring the spine height of a bat i am going to sell by putting  the bat on a sheet of A3 and drawing around it with a sharp pencil, had 3 attempts but could not get it accurate due to the paper creasing each time.

Place the bat on its edge place something flat against the spine and measure the distance from the flat straight object and edge.

Surely all you have to do is put the bat on its edge, place against a wall and measure from wall to the edge?
