Senior Cricket Bat
Superior Grade 3 English Willow
Mid to Low sweet spot
GM Pre-prepared

A popular model in GM's batting range, the NOIR features a traditional L555 length blade with GMs F4.5 face profile. This bat has a mid to low sweet spot, with huge edges and a partially scalloped back to aid balance and pick up. A powerful bat dressed in stealthy black labels.

Extras: All GM bats are finished factory knocked in with GM NOW! anti-scuff sheet and TOETEK DriGuard protection.

SWEET SPOT POSITION = Mid to Low: A hybrid setup that allows some favourability to players who like to hit down the ground but still want the benefits of a mid sweet spot.

PREPARATION = Gunn & Moore GM Now!: This bat has been oiled, pressed, had extratec applied, and been given the Gunn & Moore GM 'DriGuard' toe treatment. However, we still recommend the full hand knocking-in process before use.

BOW = Standard: The regular bow found in the majority of modern cricket bats which gets your hands slightly ahead of the ball for ease of stroke play. It also helps the cricket bat feel more aggressive

EDGES = Big: These edges are heading close to the magic 40mm mark. Big edges make for a forgiving and powerful cricket bat with a wider sweet spot. Please be aware that junior bats can still have big edges but they will be relative to 40mm due to their size.

SPINE HEIGHT = High: A high spine maximises the hitting power of the centre of the cricket bat.

PROFILE SHAPE = Slightly Scalloped: A small amount of scalloping is seen in a very large amount of cricket bats. The goal is to save weight while still making the sweet spot as wide as possible. Even very high quality bats can contain a small amount of scalloping in order to reduce their weight.

FACE = Semi-Flat: One of the latest trends in cricket bat faces was born from the need to add some durability to the edges of flat faced bats. When prepared correctly semi-flat faces bring the benefits of slightly bigger edges, a wider sweet spot plus 'point and shoot' aiming of a flat face bat. A slight curve also allows batsman to be confident when using the wrists to manipulate the face angle.

HANDLE TYPE = Semi-Oval: A happy medium that brings the benefits of both oval & round handles. This shape aids alignment, slightly weakens the bottom hand for more controlled stroke play and still allows for creative use of the bottom hand.

TOE = Toe Guard: This bat has been fitted with a toe guard.
