My latest purchase is this ridiculous Kookaburra Ghost 500, what a bat. I picked this up off ebay, seller said he had bought it from IJC and also had them knock it in.

Performance feels really nice, only used for some throw downs but it felt sweet out of the middle.
The bat weighs 2'10, which looks impossible considering the size. Bat feels balanced in my hands and it's in my usable weight range for sure. No super light pick up but no tree trunk either.
Aesthetically, probably my favourite bat of 2016. The crisp white and silver stickers are gorgeous and look fantastic in the flesh. The profile is obviously what everyone talks about, teammates were shocked when they picked it up. Profile is a winner with me, duck bill toe aids the pick up, no concaving builds your confidence and mid/mid to high middle suits me.
