First of all, contrary to the seller, Mears has authenticated some bats as store model bats. So, just because they put a sticker on a bat or produce a worksheet doesn't mean it's a pro model bat. But it looks like they do consider this a pro model bat. Its measurements match factory records, and it's made from pro grade ash. But it's still from the Indiana Bat Company, and as far as I know, that company did not place many of its products in the hands of major league ballplayers. That, I would surmise, is the big reason for the rather low grade. If this were from Kren, it would be a great bargain.
