New bat
« on: February 15, 2010, 08:05:04 AM »

Hi guys
I'm looking for a newbery bat, but I don't know wich.
Im thinking of any SPS models or maybe a custom made, but is it worth paying ekstra for a custom if I can find one of the SPS suiting my style?

I have looked at somthing like the Thruxton , GT335 og Bomber

Cheers Jakob

There should be a model shape to suit you as they have a wide range and you can get a cracker in SPS grade, I usually only see a custom needed if you need a different shape.

Quite a difference between the B52 Bomber (a big bat with a low middle similar to Sachin's preferred shape), Thruxton (a big edge and low profile) and the GT335 (a higher middle with a great all round shape used by Murray Goodwin and a lot of the sponsored players).

Therubin,

If your after a Newbery then Mr Talsiman is your man....explain to him your style of play and your requirements willow wise.....grains...weight etc and i'm certain he can pick you out a beauty as he has dealings with Newbery direct. He picked me out a stunner!

Mike if your happy to post up the pics of my bat [I haven't quite worked out how to do it meself!] it might give Therubin a clue as to what i'm on about.

If he is up to it, then it sounds good.
Another question, I was just looking on owzat home page, and found Newbery UZI C6+ Full Blade.
I know the Uzi has a shorted blade, but is this a normal size bat, with the C6+ handle, that allows you to put more wood in the bat, without weighting more then a normal bat?

I don't think you can buy C6+ any more. I am not sure the cut off date for retailers not to sell C6+. Does any one know.

Also I found with C6+, when u hit the ball it produced horrible sound, completely different to Normal cane handle bat.

By the way Harry all the retailers also deal with Newbery direct.
I am going there this week to hand pick my bats.

Regards

Asad

The C6+ is no longer available, I made sure of that by buying the last few a month ago, got them here and will send pic's across to TheRubin.

Also I found that the handle was the same in feel and sound as a cane, maybe you are thinking of the GN Plastic handle Asad?

No it was definitely C6+, few of our 1st team players used it and didn't like it.

Ive used a C6+ mjolnir and the sound and feel was just the same as a cane handle and played extremely well.
And ive tried a GN with that horrible "carbon" handle they used. Sounded horrible and the balance of the bat did not feel right at all...
Dan has a C6 mjolnir for sale on here i think?

Thanks Mike....to say I'm happy with the purchase would be an understatement and a half.
