Title: My New Bat!!!
Post by: Ashvir on December 19, 2009, 04:13:18 PM
Hi Peeps,

Today, I bought a BAS Vampire King Hitter Bat in Size 6, English Willow.
There are 5 grains and the ping is immense.

Please feel free to comment

Thanks, I too think that BAS Bats are one of the best in the business, as thier bat maker has made/makes bats for: Brian Lara, Tendulkar, Dhoni, Yuvraj etc.
