I used a GM 5 Star Maestro in 1987 and it did have a slight bow. Large piece of willow and performed like a dream.

Must have been the batsman!

Edward,

For all the success and innovation GM succeed with, a vast amount of their success must be down to you. Your method od dealing with...well lets call them poorly thought out questions and less than sensible people is absolutely second to none.

You know chaps, I doubt Edward has ever PM'ed threats of physical violence to a forum member. Amazing ain't it!

Amen to that, so I for one don't feel like gnashing my teeth about you not being a cricketer. I'm sure you know more about business models and cricket bats etc than most people on this forum, and the forum is a better place with you on it.

im not in this to try and make anyone look silly, just asking questions to ascertain more knowledge about various brands, afterall, it is of their choice whatever they decide to do. thanks for your response Ed, admittedly, its the only one ive paid any attention to. I look forward to seeing the new ranges.

Well the Icon has done a good few years and is the oldest bat in the GM range at the moment and one of your lads let slip a while back it is at the end of its life span as a product. So come on then ed is it the Icon Mk 2 or are you going to replace the Apex as i just have not seen many of them around!!! PS how about some more training kit such as fleeces with zips up the middle and the like!!!

No problem Mr C, quite understand where your questions were coming from, hope I have been able to explain  our side of things.

Kind regards
