Looks lovely mate and goes well with the background ;) How does it tap up and mind if I ask the weight?

Taps up very well, the ping with the mallet and an old ball are fantastic tbh, much much better than the bat next to it which is a BDM 20/20 I bought mid season to get me back into playing.

Weight is just under 2.13, Paul thinks 2.10 my scales say alil more, but not to worried about the weight at the moment TBH as the balance and pick up are really good..may send back for weight reduction not sure yet..

Specs

Spine 60-65mm
Edge  39mm  (rounded off)
Weight just short of 2.13 but amazing balance and pickup.
Grade, well this one was actually made for one of Pauls sponsored players, who thought it was to light for him..  So a Players grade.

Looks a great stick mate. You won't be disappointed with one of Pauls bats, I've had four off of him and they've all been cracking.

Yes it's a 20/20 model, needed a little facelift, so de snickered and sanded down..  Goes ok, but tbh if I'd found this forum back then I would have had something different, a butterfly from Paul or an x3 red ink.. But it played its part an economical bat to get me playing again.
