Hi Guys,

Just bought these bats, just for a little bit of fun can I have some thoughts on what people would grade these bats? Don't worry I know grading isn't always done on looks.



Pic was taken on an iPhone so I appreciate it isn't the best quality will also add a number of grains if people cant count them due to the picture quality.

1,2,2,2 although they all look great.

Caveat that that the last one could be a 1 and that this is using the Wrights suggested grading

1,3,3,2

1,3,2,1

1,3,3,2

Agree, just depends on how you view heartwood and blemishes. The blemish on the middle 2 push it down another grade. However, that left of centre bat has some grains on it! The one right of centre isn't bad either.

1,2,3,2. I like the look of the second from the left. I had a kippax leviathan grade two like that. Lots of grains and two thirds heart wood.  Even at 2lb 6oz it went like a train.

Based on straightness of grains the more colour and the more marks there is the lower the grade
1 3 3 2 probably harsh on number 2.

Just out of interest, are they all the same maker?

I'm surprised at the generously high grading given the 3 pages of nonsense (admittedly not from the same people) on the grading of a H4L in my forum section recently.

Thanks for the replies guys, keep them coming

to answer the question, yes they are all from the same maker and we're all graded the same from that maker...

Incorrect @Alvaro

Thats another one guys feel free to have a guess at the maker as well, will release clues at points if no one gets it.
