Have many of you guy's tried the Kudos2?
Just curious as to whether this mystery pressing is just marketing or does make any noticeable difference?

I've got a GP274 which is that shape and maker. It's been knocked in but is unused. It responds very well but that's as much help as I can be I'm afraid skip.
Did I notice a Kingsgrove bat being used by one of the Aussie women the other day?

I think it's one of those things that you'll notice a difference if you want it to.
One of my teammates had a Kudos, it pinged well. It broke and was replaced by Newbery with a Kudos 2 that pinged just as well. No drastically different sound and no lights or ceiling tiles were broken when we tapped either up in the dressing room though ;)

Yeah we sponsor Alex Blackwell, Stephanie Taylor from the Windies girls as well.
Is your GP full length JB? I don't like this fascination with shorter blades at the moment.

I thought as much, I noticed Impala advertising a bat for next season that is so technically advanced it pings all over the blade, no matter where the ball strikes.

Just compared it and it's full length Skip, hope this helps
