Having dealt with fixing cracked bats before, I'm asking if anyone has any extra tips for the difficult repair jobs such as this Rob Deer bat I just picked up:

Now I know if there's any photomatching with the event of it's cracking a repair should not be done. Or a bat with some significance a repair should be frowned upon. But if a bat has no link to an identifiable event I prefer to attempt a repair. Now I own Irwin Quick Grips and wood glue,but besides that, what are some tips to attempt a repair with a fracture as shown above?
I recall a member doing a great job on a bat looking worse than this.
