Hi Alois,

why are defensive blades generally larger than the average?

Thank you

Hi Thomas,

It gives the defender more area to get the ball onto which can be useful especially when the ball is coming fast at you.  Also further away from the table you don't need to wield the bat around so fast.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
