Title: Some beautiful sticks
Post by: Sivlar13 on August 19, 2016, 02:45:39 PM
Popped into see Gary yesterday and came across three different shapes from this years range, all of which looked incredible. I picked up a GP (will review later) but thought I needed to take a few photos of the ones Gary had left.

Personally I'm a massive fan of the SRT replica that is the Supreme but all of these are massive for the weights - I know what the forum's like so took pictures of them all on the scales so the weights would not be in doubt.

Outstanding stuff from B&S as usual, how these haven't gone I don't know.

This Scorch is ridiculously big, picks up like a dream too.

@Sivlar13 at least post some photos of the GP274, especially the profile shots. Review can be done later. From the absence of many reviews of this bat on the Forum, I wonder how many of those who purchased the GP274 bats have actually used them!

Might need to invest in a B&S for next season!

Not everyone has to review bats bud, will put some pictures up later.

That firefight is lovely, what shape is the handle and how much are they going for?

It's a semi oval handle mate, real nice! £245 these are going for.

Sure there has been pics of that up before, is it on the heavy side @Sivlar13  around 2.13?

I've got no7, never used it. I'd be interested in no22 if it was available

2.12 on the nose mate it is, picks up real well though, slightly shorter blade! Doesn't half ping like. I'll have a look mate and see if it's still about!

22 has not been made as yet any reason why you have never used yours JB if I remember correctly no 7 was a belter and light

No7 is a beauty Gary, 2.11 picks up very nicely and pings beautifully! The 7th is my daughters birthday, went to use it and the wife asked if I wasn't keeping it! My son was born 22nd so was thinking I'd get no22 for him!

Anyone who hasn't seen these in the flesh they are awesome! I'll pm you Gary to discuss 22!
