Title: Saxon Cricket
Post by: tussy17 on January 22, 2013, 02:52:59 PM: Hi there,

Just thought I would share a pic of a recent purchase from saxon cricket. Relatively unknown as a company and this
bat weighs close to 3 pounds and has 7/8 good grains. Look forward to putting this into play by April (weather permitting)
cheers

Post by: tussy17 on January 22, 2013, 03:23:19 PM: Why thank you! I can but try. I have seen some decent looking bats on this forum also. Thinking of a second bat
and not sure what to go for. It seems theres too many to chose from. LOL

Post by: tussy17 on January 22, 2013, 05:27:43 PM: Would love to let you know more Charlie but I have yet to bring this out in the nets. It has had a couple hours knocking in and it does ping very nicely right the way down the face. I'm hoping this will fare equally well against bowlers!! I bought it to replace an old kahuna so I quite like heavier bats as I'm bigger than most. Anything else you'd like to know??

Post by: tussy17 on January 22, 2013, 06:08:51 PM: Truth is I dont know I think the midlands but they are very hard to spot but if they have more bats like this I'll be happy
it was reduced from 220 to 140 so a good price too.
