Title: 10 best bats for a zombie apocalypse...
Post by: tim2000s on July 27, 2014, 08:12:36 PM
Do you agree?  Personally I'd use an mmi3 as the extra bat speed would scythe through a herd of zombies...

When I read the title of the thread, this is exactly the bat that came to mind!

I don't us my mmi3 in matches anymore. But I won't sell it.


It sits ready on the top of the wardrobe ready incase the zombie apocalypse starts while I'm asleep!

Hunts Revolution.  With some sort of liquid that won't get absorbed into the wood half filling the hole in the middle.  adds extra inertia to the swing!

Make it hollow in the middle and half fill with mercury!  Serious zombie bashing ability then...

On the lines of the mongoose, Black Cat Joker could do some serious damage to the un-dead hordes

I'd want something with a thin edge or a nice prominent spine to make sure I am getting maximum pressure/inch dealt with a single blow in order to cave in areas of the skull so that it takes only one blow per zombie kill. Lowest possible amount of effort required per kill means in my weakened state I wont get tired too quickly and maybe take on a few extra zoms in one go.

Laver (Legacy?) with the middle right down to the toe? Maximum hitting area!

One of those massive Slazenger training bats.....

Don;t want anything too heavy, or you'll knacker yourself out and get eaten

I'm wondering whether the full weight skinny training bat may actually be a better bet...

We played against Dachet a couple of years back and one young chap cam out to bat with a bat covered in SAS stickers!

We gave him the absolute beans. As an former soldier I found it hilarious.

Maybe we could stand behind him?

I guess it depends on the Zombie.

If it is a straight whack and it's dead, then a big face bat would be better to get maximum hitting area.

If you need to break the skull, sharper edges and smaller hitting zone, such as sharp edges would be better.
