Can anyone explain why kipax does not have a standard grading system for their bats? I think its odd that on their youtube video the chap explains about different grades but when i went down to the factory the younger chap mentioned all bats are the same grade of wood.
They Grade their willow as the main line of business for them is as a willow supplier for other companies/brands.
But as you say, their own bats are all one grade. For specific details on this you’ll probably require an answer from
@Kippax If you can, you’re probably best off going down and picking one. I’ve had a fair few and they’ve all performed well. I’ve normally picked bats that looked pretty good on the eye although did pick and use a Colossus that had a butterfly stain on the back but went like a rocket.
