Behold the Unicorn
« on: January 29, 2015, 11:48:14 AM »

I was lucky enough to pick this up from a fellow forum member.
This bat featured on Affinity's Facebook page last October.
Fully dressed incuding extratec and an extra half grip fitted it weighs 2.10.88.
38mm edges with no concaving.
The performance is better than every other bat I have ever used or owned period.
Looks like I have a new match bat.

Gorgeous and like the white and pink stickers as camp as that may sound. For my OCD the grip has to change to white, pink or purple to go properly though haha

My collection isn't nearly as beautiful as Simon's, Og's, Soulman's or Hosk's!

Beautiful bat, had an Affinity Spectre pass through my hands, and my oh my, the performance was exceptional. Not surprised that the Persona you have is an amazing performer. :) Lovely grain structure too, please take care of it!

Not sure what you mean. Based on my bat collection you're guessing that those guys are who I got the Affinity from?

You don't have to apologize. Just wasn't sure what you meant. The bat came from wickets-then-runs. I think he followed this purchase up with 2 x gm mogul Shane Watson players bats. One for netting and one for using in matches. I could be wrong though. There are too many to keep track of.

The blue grip looks so wrong on that bat.

Looks like a nice piece of willow there mate. Profile seems similar to an M&H harlequin which is one on my favourite shapes

Nice high middle should definitely suit Australian pitches. You along with Mark definitely have a a nice collection mate, bought a SCat off Mark 2 years back.

That's quite a collection you've got. If this is the best of the lot, it must be a VERY special bat. Enjoy!
