What is the edge size on the Warner replica?

Big. Very Big. I he told you the edge size you would faint

[smilley792]

Bizarrely for someone that bought this bat, edge size isn't something that gets me excited. I merely wanted a bat the pro's apparently get.


But as a pic and a tape measure are easy to do. Here you go.



55mm

I got mine from Muelmann and at the time, they were the only one (I could find) selling them. Mine does not have the grading ("Players Edition") stickered on it. It just has a number ( x of 20 ). Bob Muelmann told me that Stuat Kranzbuhler made those.

I love the bow. I searched far and wide and finally with this bat found a big bat with a big bow. This is the perfect shape and size for me. I took the custom route but that left me with nothing but disappointment. Yay for Grey Nicolls!!

Tried Muelamans a few times but got ignored and fobbed of, was happy when kingsgrove got hold of some.

Not sure if Stuart did this lot but, it's definately a Warner rep bat.

The players is lasered in, quite a cool feature, also says DW mid profile, which I believe the muelmans ones don't.




And I was in the same boat, asked b3, Affinty, UK grays and a few others for one of these dimensions and just got resounding no's!!!m
So glad atleast one division of grays had the balls to release them to the public.

I wonder why the handle is taped or whether is it going to last a season? From the outset, it may make the handle whippy early in its life but will also make is less durable.

The super short handle was is more worrying me than the tape instead of binding.

Was contemplating a new handle now, but think I need to use it first. I'm already in talks with gray nics UK r.e a re handle at the end of next season when I get it refurbed.
Just hope the still have some carbo handles left by then......

Chris any idea what's under the tape my Kaboom  as binding apparently the tape over binding is to make the handle more comfortable.

[smilley792]

Hi senior player.

1inch of binding, then just tape. Underneath is merely the cane handle. It's quite thin so you can see through it.

I read elsewhere it's to give a thinner grip, save weight while still helping to retain the handle together.

[Seniorplayer]

Thanks Chris thinner handle and tape won't help the pickup.

[smilley792]

Nobody said it would.


Warners hands are apparently tiny

[Seniorplayer]

Yes I read that but I find having small hands as well and mind being oval at the bottom stops me gripping the bat so it looks like me reducing the handle thickness that's why I wondered whether you could just use tape on these handles without the handle coming apart rather than binding plus tape.

[smilley792]

I like a round but thick Handle.


I've already had the grays grip off(as very thin) and dropped a nb chevron and a octopus on top.

Hopefully won't need to add another chevron underneath. Having it twined may be an option in the future

[smilley792]

Also this is the video he talks about his tiny hands.


Also to note the bats are a lot smaller than his current lot, and he claims a 2.9 and 3/4 as his weight.
As it changed or these just not as dry as his actual bats
