New CA Pro 20/20 (bought on behalf of a friend)
« on: June 10, 2008, 07:46:14 PM »

This bat was bought by me on behalf of a friend, but I will give a quick review! I know I will be asked the question, "Is there any need for a new topic?", the answer is yes...

CA Pro 20/20
Weight: 2lbs,8ozs / 2lbs,9ozs
Edge thickness: 33mm
Spine height: 64mm
Grains: 11 (even though there appears to be less in the photo)
Price: 82 inc delivery

Bought from:

Armughan (Armie). Excellent service, 10/10 for prompt delivery and efficient communications as always! The bat was delivered from Pakistan in 4 days..

Ping:

Seems nice, hard to tell with a mallet though. I have noticed that the middle is faily high for an Asian bat, improving pickup.

Size:
Pretty huge edges and spine! Probably the thickest bat I have seen! This bat goes against the theory that Asian bats are all edge and have no substancial middles!

Pictures?









Any more questions or comments are welcome! [:D]

Edges are a big size and the bat looks good. Like the stickers, it's amazing how the pink craze has caught on everywhere.

Forgot to ask what grade willow is it?

Yes, looks great for 82 quid.  The edges and spine are massive for a 2/8 or 2/9.  And 4 days from Pakistan....Brill!

Yes Chris...

Dimensions are:

~Standard Blade
~3cm shorther handle
~Much thicker blade, all the way down
~ Higher middle for better balance supposedly..

I'm surprised that the blade is the same size, are all 20/20 bats similar?

I'm sure the Uzi has a longer blade, shorter handle?

I thought the idea was to have a longer handle and shorter blade?

I think that is the usual trend, I was surprised at this one, as it has a shorter handle and a similar length blade.
