i am thinking seriously about getting a GM Icon. i've heard great reviews about it, but have the following concerns:
1. i play in the US where most of the pitches are low bounce pitches.. the icon has a high sweet spot. so will that be a bad choice then?
2. the high sweet spot, combined with the general design gives the bat a light pickup. i've heard GM Icons pick up lighter than MBs.. so does that mean i should get a slightly heavier bat? i've been using an MB LE that weighs around 2lb 10oz. sometimes it does feel a tad too heavy for me but i'm thinking that i should pick a 2lb 10 GM Icon, because in theory, it should feel lighter than my MB. is that the correct thought process, or should I just go with a lighter weight and be "safe"?
