Our bats and their grading
Our bat profiles are created with minimal concaving which allows the bat maker to pack maximum willow into the playing zone. The bat shapes are all about performance and the coverage of the sweetspot across the blade. Our bats are designed for all types of players with emphasis being placed on pick-up, balance and performance rather than the need to reduce scale weight.
