Does a pro reject bat make it into a standard bat? Otherwise, companies like kookaburra where their sponsored players go through their mountains of bats to pick what they like, have millions of bats like this. Sorry if this sounds negative but the 'this was used by.....' and 'this was rejected by....'. Is a load of crap to me.
Vitas cricket said it right. The pros have the same choice as a good retailer.

Like many fellow forumers I’ve had to wait for the wife to be out to post my kit. Otherwise even more of it would have to go on Ebay.

I’ve got a soft spot for Indian made bats hence the MRF & BAS
After trying loads of pads, unbranded OLS are great quality and don’t trouble my FKW OCD
Gloves L-R Woodstock, Phantom & RS - I like plain as possible.
Like GN shoes their 10.5 is perfect fit for me (spikes to field & pimples to bat)
Lid Albion C&D - I’m old and like it.
Bag superb from this very forum




Those Hunts look like absolute beauty's!

It does not sound negative at all. I am not a fan myself of "Pro used" & "Pro reject" bat nonsense. This was found by a friend on his trip to SS factory and brought back to US for me along with 6 more bats for other friends. With the likes of Stu made GN 50+, XP80s & Signature in my collection i really want see the difference of SS bat made for their sponsored International players.

Yes a big difference in ping & sound compared to an off the shelf SS maximus but still a bit less than the GN50+.

GN50+ is also very big in size compared to this (51mm edge, 75mm spine & 2-15 weight).

I guessed you would say 'ping & sound'. Sound being crisp I reckon.

That would be great mate. I currently hold 3 bats and the sound is just different from the bats available at retail stores.

I would say go through SS direct. If you share pics of this bat and ask SS direct, they will do it for you.

No ton stamping on the edges roughed up toe, it is a different bat that what you will find at retail, I’ve seen both top of the line SS bats from a retail and genuine pro reject bat, there is a noticeable difference especially with SS bats, other brands probably do it differently. nice collection @jd163 I’m sure plenty of people would love to have your collection
