Sounds like the plan is to do it heavier clefts to give the size customers want. Who will be the first to what it done on a LD cleft  :D

Don't know if you are allowed to say (yet!) @thebigginge , but are any of the international players using this technology now?

Having seen a few of these locally that were being tested last year I can safely say there is definitely a difference in sound! However the performance on them is exceptional. If you can just get used to a slightly different noise when it comes off the bat I’d recommend!

Interesting bit from the marketing blurb - "So when you order a NEOCORE online you will be choosing based on "Pick-Up Weight", while in-store we urge you to pick up a bat to choose the right NEOCORE FOR YOU".

So no scale weights when you want to buy one?

For all intents and purposes, Is this not just a regular scoop? They are just doing it in a way to make it more sellable (can’t see the scoop with the naked eye). Clever, but is it truly revolutionary?

So Gray Nicholls have finally seen the Aldred light - pick up weight over scale weight...... ;)

If it's allowing them to use willow that they invariably couldn't in order to meet trend demands, then that must be a good thing  - be interesting to see what pricing will be like.

It does seem quite a decent concept. And the handle process could possibly work out stronger? Rather than a weak point of the bat?
Will be interesting to see some reviews over the next couple of months.
Would be nice to test one alongside a favourite match bat!

Will see if I can pick out the neocore bats in use (if not stickered up as such!) in the Hundred by the sound made when the ball is struck.....
