you shouldnt be trying to attach any images you just need to copy and paste an IMG code once you have uploaded the pictures to a website such as photobucket etc.

This bat is indeed real and rather nice.
Not sure about the couloir of the grip though  :)

Yes, need to fix that.  Wanted to take quick snap and post it :)

I love the profile on these bats... missed out on one on ebay a month or so ago and was a bit gutted at the time... just think it'd be a perfect cross over between t20 and 40/50 over games much like the Uzi...

That's a nice bat and would look better with a black grip.

How's the pick up? looks a bit bottom heavy.

Post by: mp07 on July 08, 2014, 02:56:27 PM
Not into looks as much lol

Pickup is MUCH better after 2nd grip. Played with it over the weekend, it's a keeper :)

Looks a nice stick, any photos of the face and grains?

I just use the one grip on my 7even and find the handle a bit on the skinny side. 

Newbery should just use a normal width handle on these!

Post by: mp07 on July 08, 2014, 03:03:18 PM
You are absolutely right, handle is on skinny side...2nd grip really helps if you have big hands and the pick up.

It's hard to see, but there are 7 fairly straight grains and no heart wood in playing zone

Nice Bat. If you want to thicken the handle without adding as much weight as a grip and messing up the balance add another layer of twine and then cover it in  a light layer of diluted pva. Let it dry and it should be half the weight of a grip.
