What's the perceived/real benefit?

Improves pick-up.

Perceived benefits are some say better pickup, more bat speed and allows more wood in the blade. Real benefits, nothing proven! 😆 As with most things in the cricket world, there isn't just scientific testing to back up the theory I don't think.

I use a 540mm blade but just because it felt right when I made it up. So, not sure that's down to the set up of it, as all bats I've used have felt right over the years and they were all std sh.

You can certainly get bigger bats at more desired weight ranges other than that personal preference really I think

Would be interesting to see just how much it makes a difference in reality, but difficult to quantify I suppose?

Very nice bats the short blades I have found do pick up better in my opinion.

Love the look of this bat I have a Rizwan actual made bat not one of the replica sold and a James Taylor both incredible bats I bet this is just as good.

People ask about pro bats myths and stuff

Is the Taylor a SSH?

It was originally I got it when I worked for b3the mullinator is based off one of his bats bar the handle

The Taylor some I have let use off this forum is a beast.

I don�t know if they�re different in truth to the replica maybe mine a couple of years old my comment was a bit flippant but I know the Rizwan I have is made by a great and pings like a galloping Trojan horse if a little heavier than I usually use.

Sorry to spam your topic Chris

This Keeley looks a gem of a bat a real gem

Gah, I hate this place.

I now need to find a cheap experiment short-blade bat to see what the fuss is all about!

Bats_Entertainment · « **Reply #26 on:** March 27, 2024, 02:14:46 PM »

It's quite possible that you may have used one without realising.

jghull · « **Reply #27 on:** March 27, 2024, 02:15:55 PM »

I know why you say that, but I haven't. I've just checked all my bats!

There's a Chase Vortex that somebody might be selling at the moment, 15/20mm shorter blade/longer handle setup... 😅
