How can one determine the exact model of kooks these days?
For instance whilst this bat look very nice, I have no idea if it is a top or mid range bat.
Does look good :)
-
pleased with it mate?
I quite like the kahuna profile, might have to try one!
-
ow yer its a kook 600 forgot to say, Asad said it could easily be marked up as a higher model tho, I think I got a bargain :)
-
love it Jim, can't wait to use it
-
Looks a right plank ;)
Cracking bit of willow, I must say I prefer the stickers not having the model stickers, well done pal.
-
Yer buddy that's why I took it off, adds that little more class

Do you think that the lack of specific grading on the labelling could leave people open to having lower grades 'upgraded' by sellers wanting to make a quick buck?
-
It did have the 600 sticker on mate but I took it off
-
I also emailed kook asking a few questions about the model and willow
-

Ahh, fair enough :)
I think alot of people must do that, as I see loads in the same state as yours
-
yes mate, It makes it look better imo :)
-
Looks fantastic mate, so much better than the big kahuna I've just sold. Probably because it cost more and is better willow lol. looks like a great stick and I agree they look better with no model stickers. What's the mallet test feel like?
-
Mallet test is goood buddy! I open tho mate and I'm scared of using it in a game lol
-
You should be alright lol, just let every yorker clean you up and the toe won't split lol. Mate, I'm sure there would be something seriously wrong if they were all crap as they would never make any money through replacements. One things is for sure tho, if it does Ho wrong - customer service is fantastic.
-
yer true mate! It seems a gun so just desperate to use it :D
-
Next yeah I am going to go with Kahuna bat and Kahuna 1000 pads and gloves. I love the kahuna shape and the colours of the stickers. Also Kookaburra softs are some of the best available in my opinion!
Your bat looks very nice mate, hope it goes well for you!
-
Can't speak highly enough of the softs either. Will definitely go back to kookaburra when I can afford a decent stick.
-
Looks very nice, is this one of the ones Asad selected when he went to the warehouse?
-
White grips and no model sticker makes this bat look so much better , looks classy in my opinion hope it goes well for you ! .Looking at the bat just makes me want to go back to all kookaburra gear lol hmmmm .

I hand pick all my bats.

And a special talent at that mate. Outstanding work
-
Ha sorry Asad, just seem to remember you posted a bunch of really good ones on here! Hope it goes well Reading
-
Cheers Calum mate
-
Looks a top stick mate, really good for a 600. Hope it helps you lock your 'runs' topic in the items wanted section!!! :D
-
Haha very good Chris, you linked the 2 well. Can tell your a teacher ;) lol
