As mentioned in the Adidas thread: what kind of brand representation does your first XI roughly have?
My club has:
2 x GN
2 x GM
1 x Easton
1 x Redback (moi)
1 x BAS
1 x CA
1 x Slaz
1 x Kook
1 x Hunts
So it's pretty eclectic, though a couple of those are bats I've sold on...
-
Our clubs about half an hour from the chalet at the county ground so about half of the club use newbery's.
But in my team on average it's:
2xgn
7xnewbery
1 kook
And a Bradbury
-
I will change mine from what I said in the Adidas thread to better reflect next year:
1x M&H
1x Redback
1x Puma
1x Blank
1x Willowstix
1x GN
1x Adidas
2x Newbery
1x Slazenger
1x BAS
No trends there!

x7 Newbery ( see above lol )
x1 M&H
x1 DF Magnum
x1 Laver & Wood
x1 Kookaburra
-
Big majority of our club use M and H's.
-
Newbery has the largest representation at my club by a distance, Kookaburra probably 2nd followed by the other off the shelf bats. Redback is becoming popular too.
The top 6 in the order from our 1st team, including myself, use as follows :-
1. Newbery Thruxton
2. Laver & Wood - not sure of the name, believe it was a prototype, slightly smaller blade but not quite the t20 size
3. M&H Distinction
4. Kook Kahuna 1000
5. Newbery Mjolnir/Samurai (thats me)
6. Newbery Thruxton/Willowstix
-
Lol it might be worth mentioning at this point that I play for the same club as The_Bird and that is my rather sexy right leg at the side of the picture
-
Mixture really, few old skool cf's, gms, kooks and the odd Asian brand. Mostly made up of my own bats I've made :) going for club domination lol.
-
no major trend
1x kook
2x kippax
1x millichamp
3x gray nics
1x slazenger
1x GM
1x charlie French
and number 11 not sure he owns a bat, certainly no batting ability anyway
-
most of our first team use gn or puma with a few odds and ends floating around.
one of our players works at sheen sports and I think the discounts he can get influence the older players.
some of the younger players use colt stuff (not a surprise given its location to our club!)
-
