Opinions please
« on: November 27, 2011, 07:58:05 PM »
As the GN 5 star Evo, and the Kookaburra Rogue Havoc are currently £50 a piece on Sports Direct, I'm thinking of taking a punt on one of them. Previously used GN 5 star bats in the past, and always got along with them, but I've never owned a kookaburra.
What grades of willow are the pair?
Any opinions would be appreciated thanks

Shaq - the one round here only has the 12 quid bats, so thats rather annoying

Haha, did they have any of the Evos in there?
The Evo players is only £100, but if I'm spending that much it takes away the punt part of it.
Might give a few of the stores further away a ring and see if they have any
