Just arrived back home after a busy day. I had a meeting with one of our big customer who we supply clothing to and it was near Sussex. As meeting finished early, I thought I should visit Newbery and look at some bats especially Kudos. They didn't have any Kudos in stock and don't expect any until next week. I did pick up few of other models from the stock they had. I was so busy going through the bats until they told me it is time to close the shop. I have picked up the following bats:
Mjoliner, krakatoa, Uzi and 7even bats plus some juniors, all these are selected on performance rather than looks.
Kudos sps and players will be with us next week, some of these are being made according to customers specifications who have pre ordered these
I bet you want to see the photos of the bats I picked up today ;)
too tired at the moment, will post some photos tomorrow
-
Forum members who r visiting us on 10th Nov will be able to view all our stock. Get ready to be surprised with the quality of so many bats under one roof

Counting down the days Asad, looking forward to this visit.

I've always had a soft spot for the Mjolnir. The profile is very similar to the Newbery Excalibur that I used to use. I had a look at one when I visited Paul at IJC recently and was surprised by how good the pick up felt.

Simply amazing looking bats Asad Bhai! You have a great eye towards your selection - especially as those UZI 5 star are supposed to be G3 bats! No way
-
Be the first to buy Kudos Junior Bats , all hand picked available now at our store

What weight is the Krakatoa pictured in the profile shot.
-
If u r asking about player bat, I think it is 2.9 but I 'll check it for u tomorrow
-

2.9
i also have 2.10 and 2.12
-
I have added all the Newbery bats(both Juniors and Seniors) on our web site with the actual photos of the bats
-
We now have Kudos SPS bats in stock and available on our web site
-
OMG, that is pure porn, just had a man wee :-[
The Uzi, 50mm? edges :o :o :o If I needed a bat now I'd be coming to see you. Sadly I'm not allowed to even think about buying :(
-
What do the 2 Uzi's weigh?
-
I think they were around 2.11/2.12 but pick up is very good. I can check that for u
I wasn't planning to buy these but as soon as I saw these and tested, there was no way I was going to leave these
-
They look great. What are they like of the mallet? I've found not all 5* respond as well as their other grades. Had an Uzi players which I sold to a mate and always regretted it. Weighed 2.14 but pick up was more like 2.10 with the higher middle. One of the best bats I've ever owned.
-
Sorry I am going to repeat myself to answer ur question, I handpick bats on performance and pick up and never really looked at grains as my main priority
Asad
-
Thanks, might have to arrange to make a trip over in the next few weeks.
-
u will be more than welcome, why not come on 10th Nov as quite a few forum members are coming

I think we'd all appreciate some Beaver on the day.

The Harrow Kudos in either players or SPS. The price is absolutely astonishing! If I'd seen that price before you'd gone think i'd have pestered you to death to collect a harrow one weighing 2.9+ if possible.

If it's not extra grips and lead tape do a good job!
I use twigs anyway so a 2.7 harrow works a treat for me :D

this is correct as the bats we have received last week have H stamp on them
-
My pro bin Kudos just has the H stamp on one shoulder and then I asked them to put 001 on the opposite shoulder to indicate the first Kudos sold to general public.
The a nooner I bought on the same day also has H stamp as well

I am heading to Newbery tomorrow morning with the intention of acquiring a new blade, will get the pictures on here when I have it.

Asad they have a Tour XL there, could you find out the weight of that beast?
Also could you let me know if the newbery model stickers are a deprecate sticker or apart of the whole newbery sticker? Does that make sense lol?
-
If you can find a 2lb10oz Mjolnir Player, which looks like the SPS, and will sell it to me for the £137 that prodirect are selling them for, I'm in! ;)
-
Asad do you have any Mjolnir 5 star bats left?
Yes quite a few
-
yes will do that
-
Any chance of posting pics of them with weights Asad?
Please (!) :o
