Standard density of an oversized cleft?
« on: February 08, 2016, 11:53:52 PM »
Sorry if this has been discussed before and I may be a little confused.

A normal cleft come in at 400 as the average for the shapes vs weight, does this also apply to to the oversized clefts, do they have an average density that bats weights are calculated from?

400 is the density, would imagine as oversized clefts are still made from willow that the average density would be the same as normal.

I think its weight/volume.

Its actually easy.. Suspend your bat under water.. Water dispurt = mass. Just remeber to weigh it before you do this, as the weight might be altered by the water :)

Water displaced = volume! Clefts are cut to a known volume then weighed, job done.
