Title: GN Nemesis
Post by: golders on July 09, 2015, 09:38:55 AM

Hi guys,

Looks an interesting shape- but quite a low middle and not much up top? Does anyone have any experience of using this particular model and what are they like?

Cheers,

Golders

There are a couple of people on here who swear by them. I found that the middle wasn't quite right for me though.

This description applies to an ex-girlfriend of mine - was great for a couple of months but found the weight wasn't right for me so moved on to one with a higher middle and better pick up  ;)

Did she take long to knock in?

i have 2 of these they are the 2014 model the only difference being the colour of the stickers.

i absolutely love them the one i have use more is knocked in nicely now and absolutely flies.

i have always used big bats this is basically a way of getting lots of weight and having a middle while having a slightly lighter bat. as i usually play on not particularly bouncy pitches and i like to get on the front foot a lot i have found it brilliant. although im having an awful season its not the bats fault.

The one i got made via Jake at Vitas is lovely. Nearly finished knocking it in but it picks up well. The shape looks a bit odd at first but does grow on you. Believe they had some for around £80 on the GN clearance Ebay with last years stickers on them (the pink version)

Mine is good. Pick up Is good. Ping is good. I just don't use it that regular as its a tad light..... And have far too many other bats to choose from.

I refuse to sell it though

Billings seems to rate his

I like the shape took a punt on one from prodirectcricket which was reduced to around £100 wasn't expecting anything fantastic but I  have been pleasantly surprised and I am now using as my match bat!
