I like big bats and I cannot lie........
« on: December 21, 2016, 04:29:28 PM »

So I've narrowed my match bats down to five next year............ and there all pretty chunky.


When these become ilegal I'll be up the creak!














Kook ghost, last seasons weight 2.12.5(not knocked in yet)
Kook extreme, just arrived from vitas 2.14(and is pingalicous)
H4l custom 3.1(needs knocking in as very soft at moment)
Affinty Persona, 2.14. Requested a bat that felt like my Warner, size no issue. It feels good and is big to boot.
Gray nicolls Warner with affinty stickers. 2.14. I couldn't get on With the ssh handle so Marcus replaced it with a standard short handle for me.  Still has ridicolous ping! And feels better with a proper handle.

All bats are pretty well bowed! Before @InternalTraining asks.

The Ghost will need to go out on loan for sale  at that feather weight! Crimicar awaits?

Lovely collection! Those Kookaburras are big, I didn't think they made such big ones.

@northernboy1987 Warner will be generally use with affinty as its back up. Kook probably nets and wet weather. H4l for smashing bombs on slow slow wickets.

@jamferg it may get a game at crimicar...... but with me in the lms(hoping to play for ed idea side again next year)

@Calzehbhoy Ghost is only there as it's really is big for its weight and shouldn't compete but it does.

@InternalTraining kook coming up with some good bats these last few years, seem to have changed there thoughts.

@Sivlar13 get one, @Vitas Cricket will tell you this thing pings!!

I reckon you can hit sixes from the edge. I wish I was strong enough to even wield one of these

@smilley792, lovely profile on all bats. The GN Warner bat has no edge stamp?
