Title: Gray Nicolls nemesis 600
Post by: alexevo94 on May 13, 2019, 08:26:54 PM
Was wondering if anyone knew what grade the 600 is and also if anyone had used as it’s a rare shape

Only if you like bottom heavy bats,
I liked the shape as well but when researched, I stayed away from it

I loved mine, shouldn’t have sold it really, as I miss it.

I didn’t mind the pickup at all, I wouldn’t mind another actually.

Fantastic shape, anyone who tells you they're bottom heavy hasn't used one, there's loads of wood in the top of the bat. Rate mine really highly.

Eh? They're the same shape, why would a higher grade pick up differently?

The teammates bat i tried  in the batting stance with a raised bat the  toe felt as if it wanted  to come down to me not a bat for pulling and hooking.

That's because higher grade willow is lighter, that's been said in it's review, you have search on YouTube,
Think they come at least over 2.10lb

So a 2.10lb Grade 1 picks up alot lighter than a 2.10lb Grade 3. Surely everyone knows that, its obvious

Sometimes this forum confuses me. Not sure what the grade has to do with density and pick up? Can you imagine how light a 2lbs 10oz bat made out of feathers would pick up tho?!  :D

Wow. Some absolute tripe being banded round as fact in this topic.

I once had 3 sub 2'7 entry level Nemesis bats in stock at Vitas Cricket. The top end ones were lovely, but that doesn't mean the lower end ones were rubbish/heavy.

Totally agree, and may I say @KettonJake , it is a pleasure to hear someone as young as you using the word 'tripe' :)

Don't even know where to begin... total nonsense from start to finish that, just because it's on Youtube doesn't make it true!

As a massive fan of GN's silly shaped bats, I tried the Nemesis on multiple occasions and never could get on with it. Turned out that I hit the ball higher up the bat than its shape accounts for....
