BIG UPDATE
So one of the big differences I forgot to mention is that this new carbon blade of mine has a hollow handle, with 2 gaps. Making the bat heavier in the head relatively I think. Could this have big impact on my play also?
Hahahaha triple quadruple hahaha. erm got me playing with one of the Donic blades with that kind of handle and the look on my face when I saw that handle was PRECIOUS !!!
TTD member erm is prolly the largest and most expert EJ on the planet and knows every blade maker, plus is uber-skilled.
He had seen enough of me play and gifted me several blades to tryout and transition to use. The one that fit the feel and spin game I do is the Donic Person Power Play (OFF-)... but the modern versions have that hollowed out handle that I have been on record as HATING !!! However, I played using my regular rubbers and I could land it consistent, so I had to be practical and go with it. GOOD DECISION, within a year, I was having my best-ever tourney performances.
All in all, I think the arch aspect of that handle can actually STRENGTHEN the torsional portion of the neck... much like a combat knife having portions of the upper part of the blade hollowed out. The overall balance of my setup wasn't very head heavy (which I would really hate on that) and I would say your thin sponged rubbers are not going to make your bat too head heavy at all.
