Title: screaming cat or instinct
Post by: lazza32 on November 20, 2011, 11:11:19 AM

Hi guys,
here's a conundrum. Forget the money, which one should I go for? The only difference in cost is $100+ aus. dollars. I was thinking instinct but after reading and seeing the review of the screaming cat it is starting to make me wonder.

You could prob get two instinct bats for the price of one screaming cat so depends what our after

not really ayrtec. To get the instinct sent to australia it would set me back $515. A screaming cat is $645 with free post.

Have you spoke to Dan@Instinct or just basing your prices off of their website?

I've also make the comment that getting the scat made locally might be a berret option if you are not satisfied in any way.

Should get the vat at 20% taken of the instinct if it's exported out of England to Australia which should reduce the price of the instinct quite a bit!

I wonder who has used both bats..I'm sure 100 not out has..so I think he could offer the best opinion.

I'm very happy with my Instinct, but I've heard good things about SCATs, end of the day I'd want to go to the batmaker and get a bat made in front of me as it's how it feels in your hands that's probably the most important thing..

for me . . . .both bats are very good. but i would have a scat any day over any other bat, if money wasnt the issue. i didnt pay full whack ( no where near) so for me it worked out good.

i have seen 3 scats all were exceptional
