Until this year i'd have said Kookaburra, however after getting a GM this season I've changed.

I really like GM softs, not had a bat from them since I was a junior. I best bat I ever had was a Slazenger v600 from the seconds bin circa 2000.

Gray-Nicolls for me. Had my best 3 seasons with a Gray-Nicolls bat and always been a big fan of their softs.

Never really impressed by any Big Brands except for a couple GM bats and an SS TON L.E.

I know that my least favorite in the big brands is Kookaburra. I don't get along with any of their merchandise.

Definitely SS but the prices have been rising exponentially of anything they produce. In the same time, I have found the softs of SF to be equally good as SS softs. Have to try a bat though.

One of the black Puma bat I saw on the net was listed for $1500.00 plus tax and shipping..... talk about high prices in buying a bat without even holding it.

I asked myself, what if I still don't make runs with it?
This helped me get it off my mind.

47 years using GN cost me a fortune.
