Warsop 2lb 9oz
Fusion 2lb 12oz

Both feel a similar weight due to different middle positions. And Leo, James doesn't make them heavier on purpose it's that after a couple of grips, stickering oiling and scuff sheets the weight gets up.

Always used a 2.7 / 2.8. Big person as I am have never understood how anyone can carry around anything heavier for any length of time.

Still play in a few charity matches and currently don't have a bat so I borrow one.

Had a hit up on Sunday before umpiring with something called an Olympic at about that weight which was the sweetest piece of wood I have handled for a long. (it wasn't a new bat by any means).
