Title: Pictures of pro's using ugly bats
Post by: 19reading87 on January 07, 2017, 09:54:26 AM

So, we have the thread of better looking bats that professional players use... has anybody come across an image of a pro using a bat and you've just thought "yuck, that doesn't look special at all!!"

I dont have a pic of it but I've seen one of Matt Haydens old bats and it was pretty ugly. 6 wavey grains but boy did it go!
