There is one of some young Aussie left hander scoring runs in an empty MCG on you tube, the noise that his bat makes is incredible.

Wow wow wow my new custom SAF is just amazing!

It has that lovely leather on willow noise when I push and glance, but I was struggling to describe the noise it made on two middled square cuts on Monday, someone said it was like a gun shot going off, and having listened to the youtube on this thread it sounded just like the 1.22 crack.  I am still smiling now as I can hear it echoing around my head and can still see the new ball zipping off for four.

It truly is the best sound a batsman could ever hear.

This forum needs a poet to describe it! 1.22 is absolutely class.

There's a beauty with Brett Lee hitting one out of the ground that has a fantastic noise! There's no other sound like it!

I am reminded of something akin to a bullwhip cracking when stunning willow comes leather.

Gunshot -used to hear it when I middled something with the Newbery Excalibur - unfortunately it was rarely heard!

Nothing Sounds as good as a crisp clean shot on a nice piece of willow.
