I tell my wife that it's Tom's fault for all my bats too!
So if you ever come to visit Tom, my wife will probably want to welcome you warmly..........

Right review time

The bat spend around 10 hours of knocking in and a bola net and then the new ball test..

Pick up

Not bad at all picks up slightly heavier than my ss blank mk1.

Performance..

Well i have to say it performed ok...

Not going into too much detail it is not as good as my ss or my Laver but then again i did not expect it to be.
I think it will make a very good bat in time.
The middle is bloody good but a little two small for me i normally do not judge a bat on the middle i have yet to found a bat without one i judge it on the 4 to 5 inches under or above the middle and width of the thing

Ha it done enough to be a match bat unfortunaly not.

It has a decent middle but for me the middle is not long enough or wide enough to consider it a match bat.

Waste of money or not

Not

I think for the money you will struggle to get a better New bat but unlike the other Asian bats i get which are top quality the handle on these are not as good but will last i suspect.

Overall it was a good experiment and the bat in all honesty is not a bad one just not as good as i have.

My advice if your after a belter is to save a little more and get a better bat but if your on a tight budget there nothing wrong with this bat
