Newbery Zeus
« on: February 10, 2016, 04:15:29 PM »

Hi guys, CBF effect strikes again, I bought this bat off ebay and it arrived today and looks good as far as my untrained eye can see, just wondering what others might think of it since I'm still a bit wary of buying off ebay, the seller seemed helpful and genuine but you never know, I guess I'm just wondering if this is a legit Zeus since I don't think they make them anymore and don't know what they are meant to look like profile wise etc. So any thoughts on the bat appreciated.

Looks okay - second generation Zeus once they moved away from the very bottom heavy model.

Looks like a typical Newbery shape

Not a Newbury grip, but that's not necessarily something to worry about.

It wasn't expensive (at least I don't think) got it for £80.

I don't like the grip at all, definitely going to change it. I'm hoping for £80 it seems a good a buy.
