Yep - I have been a couple of times before Christmas and that place is too tempting!
I blame Asad for bringing out the really special bats when a forum member turns up! It puts forum members at a disadvantage, because Asad knows that most of us on CBF have an eye for the curves and special pieces!!

I look forward to seeing them......is the wooing a typical bloke attempt to appease her after spending a wedge on bats?  :D

Congrats to wooing missus cattus! And congrats to getting a couple of stormers!
That 2'9 scoop tapped up so well! And as myself and Roco have had our grubby mitts on it, it must of gone up in value!!  ;)
A lam? Maybe an mb lam?

Brucie picked up 2 fantastic bats. The feedback i get from majority of the customers is that it is difficult to decide which bat to buy as all of the bats are of the highest quality.
well i let u guys to judge and provide feedback on the quality of our bats and other equipment

Buzz it will be good to meet u

Thanks Asad, I already have a pretty good idea of what I am after but I'm sure the quality of your gear will complicate things for me!

Pedals, bring your piggy bank - there is too much to choose from.

Here you go dudes, two little monsters I picked up. Not ones for the clean-face brigade or the grains purists, but both of these were 'tres, tres-bien' on pick-up and very, very nicely thank you on the pingy-mallet test.

Obviously they also both have the chunky profiles that I require!

Bat 1)  GN Scoop 2.9lbs, 37mm edges at widest point - lovely pick-up and lots of meat!

Bat 2) Asian-made Lam - 2.7lbs, 39mm edges at widest point (didn't think this would work as the lamination is a long way back on the blade, but it really does respond off the mallet, and it was at a very good price, so I thought I'd give it a go)

(http://i43.tinypic.com/162a8u1.jpg)


ps - Asad has an even larger Scoop with a cleaner face and still only 2.8 in weight. It's made from 'players willow' whatever that is. However it was out of my budget. The Hosk, however would've wetted his pants!!
Title: Re: oh dear god...
Post by: PedalsMcgrew on January 15, 2012, 07:46:16 PM
I love both of them! I'm really tempted by a scoop so I'll be interested to know how yuu get on with it. That Lam has got a big, big profile for it's weight, looks like a nice low middle too.....top picks I'd say..!

He's got a couple of massive ones at 2.12 and 2.13 - surprised you weren't tempted.

£100 - the Maliks are a little more.  They seem to be scruffy but pingy!

What price are the GN100's Asad?
Title: Re: oh dear god...
Post by: Uzi Sports on January 16, 2012, 03:57:26 PM
If it is a normal one(those are better than many others i have seen), they are at the same price as what is on our web site.
The players quality ones, will be the same price as what a normal GN players bat of their range casts

Asad
