does any body know how pros and international players choose their willow? I mean what tests they do to make sure they are top performing rather than best looks? I want to buy a pro level willow but can't find a proper way of choosing it from a warehouse or store.

No-one really knows for sure. That's why we keep coming on here.

Is it true that Julian Millichamp graded his bats on performance? If so, I wonder what was his criteria.

Trial and error its all the pros do, trust the batmaker and you get lucky some bats are better than others and sometimes there isnt a reason, it just is.

I think Nic Compton has about 60 sent to him at the start of the season and works his way through them!

And Freddie Flintoff claims he uses a bat until it breaks, then unwraps the first one he grabs and uses that one!

Even the pro's don't have a scientific method mate, it's all luck of the draw.
