Title: Kook Impulse 450
Post by: JMcGough on June 25, 2014, 09:16:06 AM

Got an option of buying a Kook impulse 450 for around £60.
I believe these are grade three but given that the rrp is circa £150 this seems like great value. Would you go for it?

do you get to see if before you buy and test the ping out. Where are you purchasing it from and is it new?
Price wise it is worth a punt probably but would need to know a bit more about the bat

It's a good price, have cheeky bid... you can't own too many bats!

Grains look nice and straight, no obvious blemishes in the hitting area... 50 quid... why not!

Nah I shot a late bid in of 67.50 so that including the 12.50 postage I was paying upto 80. Outbid in the last 5 seconds, kind of regretting not stretching to 90 but there you go!
Might be a blessing in disguise as the current Kook range with their mid/high middle's don't really suit the wickets I play on but I'm a fan.
