I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

Looks similar to 1271 Trott profile which averages at 2'15. Must be a super low density cleft.

Yes I thought that although I reckon it's a tweaked one

I think it is a misconception that lighter bats can't ping. I have a GM flare at 2-7 with 20-25 edges and 30 spine, and it pings amazing. also, I find with a lighter bat, I  have greater bat speed AND decide/play the ball much later, so any loss of ping effect compared to heavy bat can be compensated..and what you might lose in front foot shots, you gain in back foot shots, not to mention at end of a long innings, you dont feel tired..so i personally, see only advantages to lighter bats...

For the last few years i have been using a GN Dynadrive and i noticed that the type of shots i was playing was being reduced. No pulls or hooks and basically drives and cuts only. this season i have switched to an older lighter bat and i'm now scoring much better and have a much better range of shots.

Lighter bats FTW!
