My toro has at least 1500 runs on it, got the handle replaced and that's probably good to go .
A lot depends on quality of balls, I only use my bats in matches, I've not netted for a couple of years now,apart from the odd indoor with bola machine
I used a phantom in matches last year, but didn't play many games, probably 30ish including Sunday friendlies

If I was netting more, I'd probably have something specific for that
Just to avoid potential damage

I did break a coupla bats or three last year, so I'm hoping my new ones at least get me through the season
Got a lot more games to play this year. Due to league re structure

It's a Newbery B52 SPS, that's had some weight taken off by a lad I played with and has Cadbury GT stickers. Will try and post some pictures up when I'm back as im aware this bat doesn't currently exist! 😜


Here are some very poor quality pictures...









Although it's going into its 4th season I did miss the majority of one of those so it's not had quite as much use as it could have, also it helps a bats longevity if you're a bit pants!! 😜

Varies alot from time to time. Couple of years ago, id go through 1-2 a season. Then I started bringing my kit home from the club, suspecting that other players were using my kit, and all of a sudden my bats lasted longer. (Seemed everyone just liked using without telling)

Havent broken a bat in 2 seasons, mainly because i shift them each season.
