Looks like two different profile bats - t20 and tests? Wonder how the bitmapping would look @The Doctor

He says in one of his previous posts he uses different bats and weights for different formats

If the are Warner profile, then they have a Big Bow which B3 can't map.

I'm sure someone on one of the B3 Bargain threads said they are in the process of getting a Warner replica made?

And they probably got a bat without a bow.

Quite possibly! I don't think whoever the member was has received the bat/posted pics yet.

Out of choice mate we do subtle bow and have the capability onbinoed but as big bows in terms of Asian bows tend to be a uneven press we tend not too but thanks for your comments

I suspect they don't have massive bows either more handle set and profile shaping see that bat on it side next to the other you can see it not a massive bow it extentiated by the curving of the back edge and spine

Infact maybe time for a blog on bows over to you @The Doctor


Look belting bats made by one of the best if not the best handmaker and designer in the world

Gray-Nicolls Dave Warner bats have a big bow. I have one. It is a big bow. I got it from Bob Muelmann  in Australia. God bless the man, he hand picked the one I specified out of the lot of 20.

I got a Gary Nicolls because my B3, despite a "big bow" spec, showed at my door step with a no-bow.

This Gary Nicolls fellow seems like a nice guy.

These stickers look like as if they were from eBay...

Amazing profile though. We need these bats! 😉

Yep new sticker designs are a change. Supernova etc look poor to my eyes. They also don't like the new gm range. Must see the hem up close i guess.

Gray nics Warner bats defiantly have a big bow. No handle deception.





The big bow debate is the only, and I mean only niggle I have with b3, I tend to have my handles forward set to compensate for this. But I do wish they'd add more bow to there repetoir.

^ I explicitly specified a Big Bow for the bat - my preference / spec to a custom bat maker written in their CAD/3D diagram of the bat - and they did not do it!

Yawn, Gray Nicolls sponsored player uploads pictures of his ridiculously big bats.

In my opinion these bats are nothing more than a marketing drive, the prime example of the obsession with bigger is better in the bat world.  Look at the size of the bats Amla, Jayasuria, flintoff, Lara et al used. Tiny in comparison yet they didnt have any trouble getting the ball over the rope.

Nothing more than a placebo effect.
