ive only ever knocked up with one uk made gn and tbh it was a pretty decent stick! much better than the scoop that was indian made.

the quality of the finishing etc was on a level both with fantastic finishes just the uk one had a much bigger middle.

From what the sponsored players say I'd ask for the Indian made.
Really Mike?
I am surprised. I always thought the other way around.

Well I've only spoken to 3 or 4 GN players about their bats, the common thread for the picky ones was they used to buy Australian before the recent Indian innovations which I think is the flatter face, over dried willow and big edges. As with most GN topic's Alex would know exactly what is going on although I fully understand that it would be very difficult for him to post that information. Anyway the players all seemed happy with the 2011 offerings from India.

I might also add that if GN came out and said UK made was better then they would be saying that all the shop bats are inferior which would be bad PR, from what I saw a few years ago on a factory tour with Gary from Redback there won't be any difference in manufacturing.
