Title: Pro Direct Cricket winner!!!!
Post by: liscon12 on September 11, 2015, 04:23:39 PM
So it turns out I won some Spartan Michael Clarke gear from the guys at Pro Direct Cricket and it has just turned up. Well chuffed with what I got, a MC LE bat, MC LE pads and MC 1000 gloves. Not decided what to do with it yet but I think I'll keep the softs, so excited as I never win anything  :D :D :D :DD

Haha :D nope its a genuine competition win (can show you the emails if you want further proof). Need to weigh the bat but it feels a little bottom heavy with a really skinny handle

Please correct me if i am wrong but isnt this because its made to the exact specs of MC?

I have no idea what specs Michael Clarke uses but I don't think its this profile, the middle looks far too low IMO.

I've posted a separate review of the bat here - http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=35845.0 (http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=35845.0)

I have a Michael Clarke profiled bat made elsewhere and it is a tad bottom heavy.

He uses a mid-low middle - he's mainly a front foot player so lower middles help him, but at the same time the pickup is a little heavy. Weight should be 2'9.

I have this bat and can confirm they are absolute guns.
