Where is the Middle on your Bat?
« on: February 24, 2016, 03:56:47 PM »

Would be interesting to know where people have their middles, their height and the type of bat.

Used the crictech sheets, and measures all the cracks in my bat, was around 14 to 20cm so had a bespoke bat made at b3, with the bulk and middle put here. Used the b3 last season and had my best season ever.

Is there a way of calculating this to the millimetre? or do you just measure to the thickest point?

Either look at the spine or tap up with a mallet. It only has to be to the nearest cm, not to the mm  ;)
