With everyone having a little Hosk in them I doubt there are many ugly bats on here. Although there are exceptions.

that 3 grainers a really hard one to work out ! although logic says 3 grain bars are bad/ugly ( my logic ) , i really like the look of this one , and its an ultra light cleft if im not wrong ? how does it play craig ?

I must say this bat is one of the best bat I have owned performance wise. It goes like a gun! It was my first bat I bought according to my will and it is my favourite bat :)

I actually used an Adidas 'Club' bat of the Hosk's for a net at the end of last season and it went like a train.....both of us were very impressed!

I have to say the offerings so far aren't half as bad as I was expecting, Does anyone own the 'holy grail' of poor looking timber? The One Grain bat? Could such a thing exist?  ???

We're getting there now! washed out grains, not many of them....that's more like the tat I was expecting to see!  ;)

Thing is, the fact it goes well just says to me that a good looking bat doesn't perform better.....I'm going to stick to G3's and below from now on!  :D

Isn't actually a bad bat tbh, goes well and I only paid £40 for it as I got it from a friend. Just doesn't look that nice! My favourite to use it my Rogue but the V360 is by far the most attractive.
