I've been looking at the bats from Duck and Run, anybody used their bats or give me an idea about them?

A mate has a duck and run and he scored 146 of 91 balls in our last game. And he hit three sixes in a ground where we had all agreed we'd be seeing no sixes that day. Exceptional bat! Sounded like a canon each time he drove the ball.

A friend of my at uni had their kit a few years back, lets just say I definitely wouldn't recommend it... finish on the bat wasn't great at all and the softs just weren't up to scratch with other kit you can get around the same price if I'm honest.

You could do better for the same price if I'm honest...

Well, yeah, my friend has their top of the range and even that is not a pretty piece of willow but it sure goes like a rocket. Its one of those bats that is so grainy its hard to count em. He got it for 50% off in a winter sale, so a good deal.

I bought one off here and it goes very well!!

Try the search function, I'm pretty sure there is a thread already on them.

I have owned one and seen a few basically they go well but don't last long and finish as crap, you could do a lot better from any forum sponsor in my opinion.

I have the 4* G2. As others have said, not the prettiest, finishing isn't great either, but the middle is pretty good.

Only other thing I would add is that mine is quite heavily concaved, almost to point where it scoops in from the edge if that makes sense.

Should also point out that I thought the customer service was pretty good.
