Robert Pack finishes some of the Puma bats for the Pro players.
And it does remind me of the Flintoff bat. Concaving with a featherlight pickup.
An unusual choice for a bat on the forum, but any bat that goes well for you is a good choice!  8)

might be getting one of these at weekend

but i like bats that have a big middle

"The bat has an excellent middle, not massive but when you get it right it flies and you dont feel a thing"

as my lekka and solitaire have set the bench mark ill be expecting something better for me to part with the money

Simmy, You may be surprised how good the bats are. Hitting the bat with a mallet is good all over, but the middle is excellent. Trust trying to give an honest opinion. We all rate and grade our bats different. Everbody seems to buy a bat off this forum and they perform like no other, with comments like ping is out of this word and etc... Then a few weeks later there up for sale. Best bet is to take your lekka and solitaire and compare. I'm sure Mr Pack would like to see what he's up against. The 2 bats you have are cracking value so £180-200 for one of his top grade bats may not be worth it to u. Or if it is you'll be getting another bo!!ocking from the mrs!

Glad I'm not the only one that had noticed this phenomenon. I've got a few to use in nets and in matches before they're going up for sale I think. Then if/when I sell them, they at least have a proper review!

Defently mate...
i think some times tho it is not down to the bat maker it is done to the quality of the wood. hence some bats are not good and others are amazing from the same guy.

yeah just emailing rob now he has asked us to take are current bats down so he can see :)

and your right about people raving about there bats then putting them up for sale..

my solitaire is a very very good bat and i wouldnt sell it for anything! 

however like some people i know get bats and think there amazing and when i see them use it i dont think there good at all. people have diffrent opions about bats.

Yeah, but you have at least used them before deciding they don't suit you!

ture but when buying over the internet you cant really buy on performance because u dont know.

people like peplow tho tell you the honest truth! he told me that this number 4 lekka was very nice and had good ping and i got it and he was true to his word it is a very nice bat :)

agree, so you buy on performance. peps had a lot of bats for sale to give an opinion on. Quite a few companies sell on looks/cosmetics. Think Tom said the Mongoose bats are sold on looks/cosmetics.
