Brands I've owned in order that I can remember are:

Slazenger Panther
Duncan Fearnley (GT1000, VR5* - first adult bat and used for over 10 years)
Symonds Super Tusker
GM (Cannon & Striker)
Hunts County Reflex
Kookaburra Bubble
Newbery (Mjolnir, Uzi & GT335)
Stac - Black Prince x2
Crusader something? soon got shot of!
Bradbury Sterling
Salix Pod (still going after 8 years)
Hawk - unlabelled from new
Willostix Stick
H4L NV


So that's 14 brands. My mates thing I have an addiction problem, but clearly not compared to many on here!
Can't believe I've never owned a GN especially as I scored my first ever ton when I borrowed a mates after leaving mine at home. Some very good and some very poor bats in there. For me Newbery, Salix and Stac have stood out for best performance, although the GT335 5* was dreadful. Really hoping my new H4L will live up to the Salix as it really can't last much longer from the tough life its had.

Did you have 3 M&H bats because 2 were replacements or are you a sucker for punishment?!

What Jedi bat did you own?   what was it like to play with?

I had about 6 from James
Mine was nice, but didn't last long, toe went, delaminated etc after about 500 runs
One out of the other 4 was very nice, but was broken by a dodgy ball, the others not so good.

Like a lot of brands, it all depends if you can get their best bit of willow from them.
I don't really want to diss Jedi but I was very disappointed

Setting the bar pretty high there gents!

For me:
Slazenger (Master Blaster, V12, V100x2)
CA (5000)
Laver (x2)
M&H (Distinction)
Fisher (Custom)
Grove (Majestic)
Ihsan (Crown)
SS (Gutsy)
BAS (x2)
Salix (Torque players)
Aldred (Velocity)
JPGavan (Custom)
MSR (x3)
B&S (Assegai)
Black Cat (Joker)

I'm hoping to pick up a used Impala and Bluetongue in the not too distant future.
How did the Fisher Custom compare to the JPGavan custom?

I’m currently tossing up between the two for my next bat.

@essendon2

Both make an outstanding bat. I’ve got a grade 3 that I picked up off Josh and it plays as well as anything I’ve ever owned. The Fisher was a special bat and I will always regret selling it on.

Either way, you can’t go wrong.
