Will start wwith the Screaming Cats!
The used Professional is on the left whilst the new Premium on the right.
The Professional looks a little '2 tone' as I have the blade refurbed on the blade only. So the main blade is done, but the rest is still darker coloured.
It doesn't bother me as both bats feel awesome!

How did you get on with ther aero grips? I found that using the aero gloves with them makes a real difference.

Oh, and nice lavers by the way

Love the Aero grips mate! I use a normal grip under and the aero on top.
Dont use Aero gloves, but something to try in the future.

I may be trying the Xtrax grips soon, which are similar to Aeros, so am looking forward to that!

Would you swap any for my brand new icon/hero LE? wasn't many GM on your list so it could be a nice place to start?

I'm starting to think perhaps it would be okay if I bought another bat...

I would take the DF and the clipper off you if interested in selling? Love those DF stickers, want some for my part made that I intend to wreck over Xmas.

One of the guys at my club plays laods of cricket.  He plays Sat and Sunday, a few mid week day games for the XL teams and spends a month in the Winter abroad also playing cricket.  Perhaps one day when you retire and your able to play this much cricket you'll be bale to have even more bats due to playing more cricket!

Cant wait to see pics of the rest

Sorry about any delays.....but have been snowed under at work chaps!

Here are some more to be getting on with:
The Custom Bat LE I got from here, which seems like an excellent traditionally shaped bat - although I may bee tempted to change the stickers and change the grip!
Haven't used these bats before, so yet more bats to test out in the nets!!!!

The middle is obviously a B&S (South African make) which are great bats in my experience!

The third is a Lekka - asked them to not worry about the grains too much - just find me the most responsive bat. So will test that one out too!
