Can I ask questions here? If so what is the lightest density you have seen on a cleft?

A customer on the forum had a 344 i believe which basically means a 2-10 volume and size bat bat would be 2-4 and a half basically.

That must mean my bat is of lowish density, as mine is 2lb 10 double gripped (extra grip weighs 1.75oz) with 42mm edges and 64mm spine.

Right Dave - that's enough dicking about of Faceplant - you know you don't understand it really! Get back in that cupboard and start sorting those clefts out.

I WANT YOU TO GIVE ME WOOD!  :D

I'd definitely be interested in that competition but having dealt with health and safety regularly I'm sure they'll try their best to think of the most obscure reason why it can't go ahead.

I've often thought it would be great if bat manufacturers offered you lessons or the chance to learn how to make a bat and sculpt one for yourself whilst in their warehouse. I'm not sure what my finished product would end up like though!
