GUNN & MOORE Epic DXM 909 Adult Cricket Bat

The main characteristics of the Epic range of bats are a super concaved profile with big edges and an elongated swell height. The bat also features perimeter weighting and a substantial toe.

Made from unbleached seasoned Grade 1 English Willow that is predominantly straight grained with colour on one edge and minor blemishes. 909 bats are fitted with a top quality treble spring multi-piece cane handle for outstanding feel, flex and control. The handle is ovalled for natural bottom hand location, comfort and control.

DXM conditioning means superior wood conditioning that improves the stability and consistency of willow pre-production. A new paperless design process uses state of the art CAD (Computer Aided Design) and there are quantum improvements to the vital pressing operation.

The ToeTek technology consists of a specially shaped resilient shield fitted to the toe of the bat. This reduces toe damage and feathering that is often caused by tapping at the crease and also provides a further barrier to damp.

The bat has been knocked-in by the Gunn & Moore batmaker in-house. There is DriGuard applied to resist damp and minimize toe swelling, raw linseed oil applied to reduce cracking and splitting by maintaining the moisture level of the blade and a clear anti-scuff cover applied to the face and edges to increase blade durability.
