Default Bat questions

Posted By: Alan Elefson

Dan-
Your brother has an interesting strategy! It is always one of my least favorite feelings to see a knowledgeable collector/dealer at an antique auction as I realize I will not be walking away with any significant "deals". At least at flea markets, you have a chance of getting to a table first or digging out something your competitior does not notice. At auctions, usually the deepest pockets win (much better for the consignor).
One last quick question to ask the board. What type of handle is on the Cobb store model? It is not like the knobs I have had on previous bats, except oddly enough on a Joe Torre Adirondack bat that I found at a flea market a few months ago. Thanks again for everyone's help with these bats!
Thanks,
