Cool to see some discussion earlier in this thread about one of my bats ! :-http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=745593934http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=655396863(different ads for the same bat which I placed on our TradeMe website here in NZ).No takers so I decided to keep it I've also had a GN500 (Powerline version), a DF Magnum (beautiful), GM Maxi Autograph (heavy), GN Viper Players etc. Was very tempted recently to buy this SS Jumbo :-http://www.ebay.com/itm/SS-Jumbo-Full-Size-Cricket-Bat-/271477811793?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=jRUK%252B9rWSbx7EJ1AbzWQh8bzEgo%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=ncKinda wish I had now at that price, but I bought an SP Master Flatback instead which I'm just as happy to have, see the St Peter bats thread :-http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=12348.new;topicseen#newCheers!
You in Tauranga mate? Do you play there?
Welcome aboard. I contacted you recently about this beauty. I'm based in CHCH. Enjoy the forum
Yip, am in Tauranga. Played for Tauranga Boys' College 1st XI in 83/84, then just socially Greerton Reserves in 1990's and Cadets Reserves 2012/13 at the ripe old age of 46yrs. An allrounder - much better bowler than a batsman, with late outswing and the occasional off-cutter. Best figures in 12/13 were 4/40 off ten overs against Mount Reserves
Hi everyone. New on the forum and hopefully I will be posting more stuff soon. I'll start off with this ancient bat that I got from someone. Can't see the bat makers name anywhere. Looks like Kashmir because I can't see the grains very well
Lovely old bat. That's the type I really like. Does anyone want to sell their old bats? I'm probably on the wrong page as 90% would be lovers of the old bats and couldn't let them go. I'm in Australia which wouldn't help the cost of shipping but I love getting an old bat with all it's stickers intact and bringing them back to life.
I'm in Sydney. Postage would not be an issue!
Wow small world. I played for TBC 1st Xl 1999-2002. I currently teach there in the Geography dept with Rob Leslie.Played for Te Puke last two seasons and now going to be player/coach Greerton this coming season.
