Duck & Run Centurion
« on: July 28, 2016, 09:26:19 AM »

Morning Gentlemen. Has anyone on here ever come across a Duck & Run Centurion before? I've never heard of the company before but I've found one in my midweek teams old kit bag and was debating weather or not it was worth tarting up? If I can work out how I'll upload some pictures

A team mate has a duck and run. Not sure which one. I think they are a sticker brand based in Devon. His bat is quite dry and fairly unspectacular performance wise.
Another guy I played t20 with had one. It was a laminate and a total cannon.
Clearly Indian made.
My view is every bat is worth a refurb as someone will appreciate it.

I don't know how I'd go about repairing this though as it looks like someone's band thr stumps back in with it. Do you know how to upload pictures?

Dents will often steam out. Hold it over the kettle/pan of water as it boils.
Upload photos to  photobucket or a similar app then paste the link.

I use one, love the profile! Mine goes very well.

They're shop brand shop down in the south east so not sure who actually makes them.

Pictures not the clearest and on second look I don't think it was stumps that caused the damage

Looks like it was knocked in by Thor.

Then had a quick net against some grenades...

if you have found that, as in it's now yours if no one claims it  :) you have had a right result if that's the only damage

either not knocked in, or rock hard balls have dented it

could of hours with a mallet to even it out you have a good result

check the handle, if that's in tact the bat gods have been kind to you

Well I've just spent the last two hour sanding it. I thought it looked better so put some oil on it a low and behold it's still (No Swearing Please)! Think this one's ready for the bin

Only looks like surface cracks.

Use it until its dead!

What's the response like? If it's any good put a fibre face on it. If it's no good put it back in the kit bag. A few cracks doesn't mean it's broken.
