Nearly.. University, beer and women definitely played their part. Also moving clubs from a batting paradise, to a dodgy north west green top

[ProWannabe88]

I got my first ton with a Richard Wensley made Warrior RP think it stood for Real Power never been sure. Got my first double hundred this year with my Blueroom LE

A lot of GN's cropping up. Does that say something about them?

Lot of GNs but most of them 5 / 10 years back. We do have Jake as the latest entry.

Does that not say more about the age of most members on here though?

[ProCricketer1982]

It could mean there bloody good bats..... Or merely that more people have owned grays than other bats.

I got my other 2 tons with an oblivion extreme pro too....

I owned a GN because my father said they were one of the best makes, no other reason. I'd imagine their branding sells a lot. Although, the carbo was a really good bat !!

My first 50 was with a Bulldog. Don't have a ton.

I'm subscribing to the a lot of people have owned them theory.
People who don't come on here will likely buy a bat from a big brand. To most that would be Gunn & Moore, Gray Nicholls & to a lesser extent Kookaburra or Slazenger.
If people bought their bats before becoming a member on here (or before this forum existed in some cases) I imagine they would've bought a bat from one of the bigger brands which could explain why so many first tons were with GNs

In 1991 I scored 123n.o for my dads work team using a Warsop Perfection. A lovely bat which I then ruined by over oiling it.

[Topgun]

My first ton was with an old SG VS - 319

[Jacky]

Kook Bubble

[northernboy1987]

Never hit a ton first 50 was with a Kook "Biggest Kahuna" that I've still got

[No.4]

CJI Sumo 3lb was my first. Hit my first T20 ton this year with my B3.

When I was so much younger. The Internet was too new and getting to owzat was impossible. We had 1 choice. A pokey shop in town. That only stocked gray nics, GM and kook. And even then it was only ten bats at a time.
Choice was not great.
