There are too many bat threads around again at the moment - it was to avoid this sort of thing that Sledger created the sticky for bat discussion.
Therefore most of the other bat threads are going to be closed tomorrow morning, so if you want to make a final point or move the discussion to the sticky, this would be the time to do so.

Having checked out a few Fusions today I wouldn't say it was bottom heavy at all since the middle is fairly high up.

Michael osborne from GCCC sent me a GN fusion 1000, by far the best pick up, the best feel i have ever felt in a bat. I had a game yesterday, i scored 55 on a wet wicket, and first time in my life i felt in control of all my shots. The ball was flying off, almost took out this guys hand when i hit a cover drive..Its amazing, it feels huge in my hands, and everyone was amazed on how big it is, i agree with LEE, and everyone else who dont know jack **** about bats saying its bottom heavy becayse there is more wood and carbon handle, well the middle is high up, and the pick up is great, the best i have felt. I used to use Puma Ballistics, yes they were a bit bottom heavy but now i switched to GN fusions, i have about 3 now, and each one is amazing, same in all regards. I would recommend this to everyone.

Depends on how many orders I get at a time, but if its just a single
bat being ordered, then you are looking at around at least $40 off RRP.

im intersted Mr Lee, how much can you get the fusions for, ( the price for 100, 750 and so on)
gray nicolls uk said to me that their new stock will be launched on friday, thats when they will send me my powerbow pro performance stickers.
i asked them if the fusion will come out and if it does i would rather have the fusion stickers, lets wait and see.

If anyone wants one, I will gladly get some for you. Especially if you have any special requirements. I asked for 10 straight grains on mine, and a oval handle at the bottom, but they don't make the Fusion with oval handles, however he managed to get me a partially oval handle, which is a bonus for me. I can get any bats for you  I'm trying to start up a store aswell, so that would be ideal

i guess fusion sports could make a better bat then that, because the middle is high on that bat, and many pictures i have seen of fusion sports bat the middles are high, however with the concave shaping, the middles are much bigger, compared to the gn fusion ive seen here.
we should ask bill what he thinks

the edges do look quite big, and i know that they say the edges are 34mm, but i measured the edges on my bat and they came to around 25mm, so this edge thing they got going on isn't really that impressive, many bast have this big edges.

The Powerbow does have a lower middle than the Fusion. This would allow better driving capabilities.
The Powerbow is a sub continent styled bat. It's hard to say which ones better for hitting over the top, the Powerbow is made for it, but the Fusion is a huge bat aswell and I would think could do the same as the Powerbow.
Really depends on what type of player you are.
Hope that helps.
