IMHO its a SAF custom.... My SAF custom :) and 2nd is Warsop venom.... My warsop venom.... But as they are the only bats I have had a play with I can only comment on them. But if your going on looks I have to say the top of the range bats offered by any of the forum sponsers are really sexy. But my fav bat was one called etna (or somthing along those lines) it was used in a bat off earlyer in the year.  If I could have any other bat it would be one of them.

All the ones I have seen at Owzat are heavily concaved. Do pick up very, very well though.

I'm surprised I got the same so close. Yes she did look very good, I must say the blue room mini swell with the blue and yellow stickers also looks very nice.

Best bat from last year? Now there's a challenge... None of the GM Epic, 1885 and Halo are allowed as they are 2012 bats, and so are the Scoop, Torq, Rogue, etc.

I think if I was going to vote, much as I dislike the look of them, in terms of using one, the Laver Ultras probably swing it for me. The go like... (complete the metaphor yourself)... Massively impressive beasties even if they do split opinion on looks.

The B52XL SPS I picked up from Paul on Saturday is pretty lovely, even if it is 3lb 4oz!  And my Black Cat pings something special too!

SS KP and generally SS Bats..even the new 2012 SG Range is very good if you are watching the IPL many of the Pro's are using mainly SS or SG..they will be big even in the UK this year due to the performance and huge profile!

can you get SS bats by any chance?

Picked up an SS KP at Uzi sports, was huge in relation to the weight, look like belters. I think I'd have got an SS Gladiator though if I could have afforded one :(
