new halo
« on: March 25, 2012, 12:27:42 PM »

picked this up at dummer (serious cricket) yesterday.
2'9 nice grains fair bit of heartwood which i quite like. really nice profile with no concaving, mid-low middle. but the pick up is fantastic.

no of course not, i paid 149.99 which might be quite high for an 808 but least you get to pick up and see the bat your getting. cheers for all the positive comments!!!

Looks good, grains are some of the best I have seen on GM bats, (mind you I have not seen many highr end GM bats)

the 808 and 909 bats can be some of the best value bats on the market...

watch out for a little exclusive cbf Gunn and Moore competition tomorrow along those lines..  ;)
