Woudlnt have a bar of the biggest kahuna.

Yeah they are massive but they way 3 pounds + and while thats not the worst always they pick up and feel 3+ pounds there seems to be nothing weighted about them. Blueroom swell , H4L monster etc seem to be able to do big bats in that weight range which apparently pick up decent.

i like the look of the BAS, but Ive previously bought 2 Matrrix S10s aswell online without having a feel and pickup for it and at first i didnt like it them but learnt to adapt, not sure of anywhere up in Newcastle that stocks any BAS bats so can have a proper look, Im swaying towards the Newbury as it looks like and feels like it has abit more life expectancy

I have owned a number of Kooks and a couple of Newberys and have a new Newbery arriving tomorrow. In terms of quality and performance I would go for Newbery over Kookaburra every time.

wooo Newcastle!

If I were you, your best bet is buying a bat off here. I take it you bought the Maxtrixx from BatPad.
If you want a BAS, ask Asad at uzisports.
If you want a Newbery, ask Talisman.

No i got the matrrix through their site from Ajit, but probably just going to go to the shop tomorrow and pick up the Newbury for £170 - get to try out the weights, plus have the bat as soon as possible and get to the knocking in process thanks for the help guys
