Title: Small sound from the Bat Handle
Post by: slcric on September 12, 2010, 02:49:12 AM

Hello guys,
I have a grade 1 English Willow Puma Ballistic 5000 Bat which i purchased from my mate last week.When i was using it at home,i hear a little "tick tick" kind of noise coming from the handle.My guess is that the handle is going loose?I'm really worried about this as i cannot afford a repair at the moment.Does it need repair anyway?It doesn't feel like its loose it just sounds so.....

it will get gradually worse i reckon and will require replacing at some point. not a big job.

Had a bat which made a similar noise seemed to be okay tho, thought maybe it was just some of the glue cracking with the flex in the Handle.  But if your worried about it i would ask someone about a repair I'm sure you could hold on till bit nearer to next summer now when you could afford it.
