Title: Best new bat profiles for 2012
Post by: yvk3103 on January 08, 2012, 02:06:24 PM: So what do you guys think are the best bat profiles for 2012.

My choices are:

1. Salix Strike
2. GN Powerbow
3. Puma Bionic
4. Kookaburra Recoil
5. Kookaburra Rogue
6. Adidas Libro

Waiting to see the H4L Tempo and the Black Cats

Post by: Johnny on January 08, 2012, 02:20:37 PM: @buzz SAF Hades is a bespoke bat isn't it as opposed to a stock shape?

Love the concept behind it though - would prob be my first choice bat if either I can rustle the cash together or persuade Andy/Marcus to give a generous discount

No I think it is a stock shape, adapted from the Genus the season before last - BBIIIGGGG spine height
