As im new to this forum i would like to hear what bats people are using :)
I'm currently using a GM Octane 808 5 Star as a match bat and a gn oblivion players edition as a net bat (crack toe) and my spare bat is a gray nicolls kaboom LE :)
Please feel free to post pictures :)
-
Match bat b3 bespoke 3stripe.
T20 bat mongoose mmi3.
Net bat, my b3 middling stick, then either off the above two, dependant on what I'm practicing
-
Sounds a good collection there :)
-
Newbury GT Players 2.10 with a newly fitted GM Shock Absorba grip in Blue.
-
SAF Mechten - been using it for a few weekends now and feel pretty comfortable with it. Might change for Sunday though and use GM Flare as my Sunday form is horrific at the moment...
-
aha mmy gm octane got me runs so far more than my oblivion did
-
Going to be giving the Blue Room swell recently bought from Chad a maiden outing (with me) this Sunday! Very much looking forward to it.
-
very nice my u17s captain uses a blue room bat pings nicely i might try mighty willo they are a local brand from me :)
-
Nothing my b3 might have to go underwraps for the season now I could possibly have ligament damage to my ankle

ahh no :( hope it gets better soon mate
-
my £30 MSR net bat used it all season and it's doing a great job, can't fault it.
-
It'll be the Helios Midas I think this weekend.
-
Toss up between the Helios Atlas and L&W Reserve. :)
-
The trusty H4L Monster. Goes like a train.
When I actually time one anyway
-
all sounds good bats to me :D
-
Laver PB special profile.
-
Match bat is my increasingly impressive Hammer Hel156 LE. Net bat/back up is a GN Players Maverick. Then I have an old but newly refurbed Salix Satyr to muck around with. The Hammer goes like rocket :D
-
Newbery GT 5star 2.9 and loving it :) .
-
Using a Kookaburra Blade (re-stickered with last years Recoil stickers)
Little crack coming on the toe but the middle seems to still be going perfectly fine. Taped up and hope that it holds up!

How are you finding your Hammer mate, going well for you?
-

Probably covered already, but just a quick question as to what happened to Helios on the forum?
-
Salix Wasp Performance
-
Will take my Chase 175 Beluga & my Woodstock Tour De Force with me
If I need to build an innings the Chase, I it needs a tap the Woodstock.
As I'm number 11 on Saturdays (we have a stupidly strong lineup, I was batting at 3 in a lower leaguelast year) I hopefully won't need to bat until Sunday
-
adidas pellara elite, found a shop where there price up wrong. took a punt and its a proper gun. well out performing my mate salix pod.
-

Yeah. Loving it at the moment. Slightly heavier than I've previously used, so took a couple of nets to get used to it. But hasn't let me down yet. Grabbed its maiden half century last game too. A really really well made stick. Chuffed.
-
GN Legend at the moment, reverted back to the old favourite
-
Laver and Wood Special Reserve for me.
-
Blank Bats 2"8, not done it justice yet, but it's going well.
Laver SR in reserve, used it properly for the first time in the nets on Thurs and it went really well!
-

-
I am using one of my woodstocks .
-
Vantage Volt LE, best bat ive ever used.
-
Blank Bat
-
My Bulldog super premium will be getting its weekly outing of 4 balls on saturday!
-
My rather super Malik Sher LE or The Fugly Stick - dependent on whether the game situation calls for moderate violence or extreme violence.
-
A rather meaty CA8000 Test :)
-
An old school Salix praestantia. Been going strong for 5 years (although the last 3 it's been hidden in the garage due to a break form cricket). Can't bare to be rid of it although it is falling apart!
-
My HitsHard is my match bat for Saturdays and then rotate the others for a Sunday so this Sunday may use my Aldred or a new Hunts county can't decide.
-

what about ultra violence?
-
I've been using my b3 midweek and Hades on Saturdays.
-
carbine im games but has some hefty war wounds, scat as net bat as its life in on a knife edge and spectre is just being eased into the kit bag tomorrow
-
Had my H4l commandeered by a team-mate who borrowed it and scored 70. Currently using a bulldog 'jumbo' as match bat which is going nicely
-
My Salix Praestantia Players, got a fifty last time round, here's hoping the runs continue.
-
Being an Australian the season has not started yet!
But L&W Private bin for a net
-
Hoping after today's coaching from jake at vitas my new slazenger 100 elite (not tas) will start showing itself. Have given jake nod that ill be looking at the bs LE next season after picking one up today. 2lb 10 and seemed a lot lighter, honestly nicest bat I've picked up so far for me. Feels a shame to waste the new slazenger too early though!!
-
Going to try out the Salix torque this weekend and give rest to the others for a bit .
-
My Kookaburra did its job, 69* to win the game. Roll on next weekend...
-
at the moment i wont be batting with anything

You may struggle with that then mate ;)

Well my two bats are broken. My kooka is on it's way back to Corby. The handle on my warsop has gone and no funds to purchase a new one. And all the boys at my club use heavy bats

What's up with your Kook? Sounds like you've got as much luck with bats as I have.
-

-
My team,
H4L and bulldog, then adidas GN
The opposition
Chase
Spartan
M&H
Bradbury (with the most twitchy batsman ive ever seen)
-

You got one in the end? Any pics? I do regret selling my Sher... but hopefully couple of LE's on their way.
Using an SS Pollard (Red) this season.
Not having the best of seasons but it's definitely not the bats fault. I've nearly ruined two umpires this season. :)
-
Heven't played for a month! :(
-
Matrrixx Concorde le. 2'12
Failing that purist 909 or one of my new aldred supremes (being kept very snug at the minute cos they are beautiful).
Got a couple of robinsons hanging about as well.

Didnt want to waste a bean whilst my purist was being repaired. Bought a matrixx to pass the time. It went well enough to try another. Fully converted to mr aldred at the minute. Think the guys at quantum offer an interesting service going for more diverse gear. Strange really as im very much a gm / slaz / newbery man. Plain and minimal branded goods.
