Are some of the bats not compliant?

[ianbuchanan]

Looks like it's just good customer service to me, free refurb at the end of the season....

[Richard]

Possibly, seems a bit harsh on the CoR buyers though?

I think its got to be a bit more than just good customer service, the adherence check seems to suggest so at least . .

I believe that the extension of the blade into the handle has been subject to MCC interference, quite what the problem is I do not know, the long join merely restricts flex. It would appear that Mongoose are looking to recall or at least show willingness to correct this to comply with the MCC. I would like it if Tom could post the full reason for the MCC ruling on here as it seems very unfair for Mongoose to have to refurbish and modify several hundred bats at their own expense.

You believe wrong Michaelknowitall.

[Talisman]

Well they have to cut the blade ears now to prevent them being too long Bullyknowjack!!!!!

Surely the problem is the use of flattened and skinned furry mammal and not wood in the blade?

if it is for the reason that Mike is saying....does that mean that performance will be affected by introducing more flex in handle. . . . .ive got one of these mmi's

also is there a deadline for the amnesty??

Tom can you please clarify . . ??

[100 not out]

Any further update on this??

[Tom]

Send your bat back and we'll refurb it. No performance changes, only cosmetic.

[Talisman]

Will you cut the willow attached to the handle?

[Talisman]

Tom,

Will you cut the willow attached to the handle?

I ask as I was thinking of sending mine back to you for a refurbishment.

[Tom]

It depends, if it was missed originally then yes.
