Gunn & Moore or GM are one of the leading manufacturers across the globe all be it with a humble beginning in Nottingham 1885. GM have been proud to support some of the world’s top players including Mike Gatting, Michael, Vaughan, Marcus Trescothick, Stephen Flemming,Herschelle Gibbs, Graeme Smith & Brendon McCullum to name a few. Their revolutionary DXM technology is market leading allowing bat profiles to beaccurately replicated across the grades& expertly finished & prepared for use with GMNOW & ToeTek!
The PRIMA is part of the next generation of GM bats designed to offer players a more dynamic experience with an L540 blade. Reducing blade length reduces overall weight allowing more wood to be left in the hitting area. Extra length in the handle allows for a dynamic sweet-spotas players can change distance from hands to middle easily.
Profile
Overview: L540 blade, with lowblade profile for dominant front-football striking. Substantial edges run the length of the blade improving balance.
Powerzone: Low blade combined with the addedhandle length allows for attacking strokeson front the front foot, ideal for hitting at the death.
Shaping: Concaving in the back allows for bigger edges running the length of the blade& more pronounced spine. Shorter blade allows more wood to be left in the hitting area & mild duck billing in the toe maximises balance allowing for faster hands.
Handle: High quality 6-piece Singapore cane, round handle, ideal for attacking players looking to hit over the top.
Toe: Squared toe with rounded corners gives an extra wide look to the bat in stance
Grip: White Pro-Lite grip gives an exceptionally authentic feel& one of the thinnest grips on the market.
Finish: All GM bats come pre-prepared with GMNOW, which prepares the face & finished with Anti-Scuff sheet. ToeTek toe guard is applied at factory after the toe has been treated with dri-guard to reduce toe swell from water ingress.
