Title: Mako players
Post by: nick123 on August 30, 2013, 05:31:45 AM

I got my hands by chance on bat destined for an Otago player sponsored by kiwi company mako . The bat is immense 40 mm edges and a 61 spine yet weighs only 2.8 pounds and is grade one willow. Pings nicely and is yet to be knocked in . Unfortunately i'm sending it back on Monday thought I better show you guys it seems special . it seems Indian made due to the nice bow and good pick it but im pocking in the dark can anybody tell where it is made.

Malik really , I though it was Indian as the bat has a thin yet sturdy handle really round with 3 cork inserts . The finish is pretty good up there with kookaburra .
Unfortunately I have to return it as it was not destined for me I ordered a puma millichamp precision 2000 the guy sent me a bat destined for a domestic player who is  mako sponsored player . I am just an average club cricketer with no sponsorship . I think the bat is 300 - 400 new mako are popular around Palmy North.

Yeah weighs 2.8 needs a counter balance or an extra grip to make it pick up light.
