Just an idea, but maybe actually stand them next to each other in the same picture for a comparisson shot?

Doesn't work...  You can't get quite the right angle, hence the grid picture.

Looks good Tim, how does the B3 pick up compared to the Powerbow? I loved the original Powerbow bat had a 5 star that I used for about 3 seasons (this was before I found the forum)

Also if you have used the B3 yet what's the performance like?

[tim2000s]

It's got an excellent pick up.  I was very pleasantly surprised. 

I've not been able to use it in anger yet but using it to bounce a ball off impressed me no end.

Two months after getting this,  it finally got into the nets last night.

I think my verdict on the bat mapping is "good stuff guys". The B3 "powerbow"  proved to be a very nice bat.  According to the fellow forumites who had to out up with me trying to smash the leather off their bowling,  the bat was performing really rather well,  and they were impressed. I was too.

The only bad thing wasn't a b3 problem.  After rolling the edges on the bath and bashing them for 45 minutes,  I mistimed a full blooded swish and connected the edge of the bat with the seam.  It has made a bit of a compression crack which needs glueing and a hammer edge face sheet applying.  Oh well

Glad to hear the bat went well do you need a help with the edge at all let me know

Yep sounded good Dave, and he certainly rocketed the ball about (until undone by a sneaky bender!).

BTW a couple of us used the B3 gloves Dave - very good indeed. I suppose it sounds like a strange compliment, but after a while you don't notice you are wearing them at all!

what is a "compression" crack??

A crack caused by compression 

[brokenbat]

looks rather minor - even that requires glueing??

For that one I put a bit of glue in, sanded it down after, continued knocking it in then put a scuff sheet on there.
Probably didn't need gluing but I'm a wuss about superficial crack appearing

Mind's a little bigger than that...  Whoops.

At least your bat has been used, some class A wombat managed that one knocking in their new bat!

Just thought I would share this image. With our Bat Mapping technology the limits are now endless.
