Hello all, I'm looking to buy a new bat for the new season and have a photo of my bat from last year. It's most probably the best bat that I've owned and was wondering whether anybody knows if it is in fact a Kook recoil or is another Kook bat re-labelled? I know it's been re-stickered but not sure if it was replacement Recoils. I want to try and get an exact (or near enough) copy of this bat, so trying to find out details as I look to get a new stick. Any help is appreciated, thanks from the 'Newb'.

Does the bat have any stamps on the shoulders? Plus don't most Kookaburra bats have a model sticker under the grip?

Both are correct. How concaved is the bat? All kookaburra's are heavily concaved.

The bloke I got it from got it from the Kook factory I believe. Has "OS" on the top of the handle I know that much! I can't exactly remember it its original state, though I wouldn't say it was either no concaving or heavily. More heavily than not I would presume though I've had bats far more concaved. I don't believe there were stamps on the shoulders though...

phone up one of the sponsors, say Vitas, send the bat to them with your budget and ask them to pick you a new one.
could be a blade? (older red one)

Doesn't look like a recoil.. Middle is way to high and the edges are to small
-
Looks like it has plenty of life in it........like blasphemy on here but do you need a new one?
-
This looks like the 2008 kooka ice.
When they didn't have the big edge stickers on the sides
-
I was thinking Ice or Beast, but it looks too high a spec bat to have been a lower end Beast and obviously has no graphite. Ice was definitely similar to this.

OS? Owais Shah? ;)

Photo was taken at the start of last UK season, it now is battered and bruised with mass amounts of tape and no stickers in sight!

That's the name I was told anyway mate, Owais' seconds lol

If it was like that I'd say take it, it's a lovely shape!

I used it for the entire UK 2013 season, and it's certainly become my favourite bat that I've had. That's more to the point of trying to get a similar one in shape and weight as it seems to have been perfect for me!
