Evening All,
I thought I would share a little about my latest Uzi pro. Having used some brilliant Uzis for the last three seasons, I was very hesitant to switch brands for my upcoming season. I got in touch with Uzi Sports and asked Asad to provide something as close as he could to my current match bat. Not being able to physically get into a store, I've gotten to a point with Uzi Sports that I actually trust them quite blindly to pick quality sticks for me. In fact, I didn't even see pics of this bat before I bought it. Asad had messaged me when he got his latest bats from his bat makers to say he had something that fit the bill. I asked to him send it and three days later (international courier) I received the following beauty. Specs now that I have checked :
Weight: 2.94 (1 grip)
Edges: 41mm
Spine: I have no idea
Ping: I normally take this with a grain on salt in most reviews I read, where people state it's a trampoline, gun, rocket etc before properly playing in a bat. What I will say is that all my previous Uzi match bats have been brilliant. Off the Mallet, this seems very impressive, especially the length of the middle. Ask me in a few months and I will advise how it actually plays. For now enjoy the pics. The last few have my uzi match bat as a comparison.

please please please sort that grip out

I can never get it right with a second grip. I leave that extra bit at the bottom because it naturally settles correctly once I play with it, the anti grip grip effect I call it.
