Title: Gunn and Moore Original LE
Post by: cricketer13 on April 09, 2011, 02:03:51 AM
Alright so lately I have been buying a lot of bats. Within a short period of time, I have bought Luna LE, Laver and Woods Reserve and Legend, Custom Made Gray Nicolls Legend, Flare 909, Puma Kinetic 3000, Puma Iridium 3000 and 4000. All of these bats except for Laver and Woods were purchased from Mapperly Sports. As I live in Canada, I didn't know of a shop that would provide me detail specs so I contacted Mapperly and started ordering bats. First I bough Luna LE and Icon LE for a friend. I admired their service so much that I started ordering more and everytime they were available to answer my questions. Their customer service was just exceptional.

So here I am doing a review of my Icon LE first which to me seems like an amazing piece of willow and hard to get. It is 2.7 with 31mm thick edges and according to Mapperly (Michael) it is quite big for its weight. I will be receiving this bat on Tuesday but have already received the pictures so here they are. Please feel free to comment.

WOOOW!! Amazing bat! This bat has to be the best looking bat ever, that LAver & Wood Signature looked good but this bat is exceptionally good! I don't think one can ever get a copy of such bat! This is unreal!! It is like a dream bat!! These grains are exactly like one used on GM's website!!

I hope this bat plays brilliantly too!!

All of your bats are top notch bro!

That is a great looking bat, if it plays as well as it looks you will have a cracker there.

My word that looks tasty. Can I ask the price tag if you don't mind mate?

As I read my post over and over again I feel that but when I first saw them I got carried away :)

Thanks. It cost me what it would cost normally 295 pounds. Bought it from Mapperly sports, they have the best selection of GM bats for sure. Will post pics of other bats later.

it does look a nice blade, not really a fan of the icon's profile, the middles too high
