I can make something up to specs if you are interested. I’m not going to make some unjustified claims that I make for this pro or that pro but the bats are good and feedback has been positive. Plenty of reviews on here as a guide

Having had a bat that was destined for a pro.. my thoughts...

- All pros have different preferences and set ups
- you may end up with a nice looking bat.. but is the handle shape right for you? The pick up?
- the pro may have got it for a specific tour...
- some pros like heartwood... where some brands would grade such bats grade 2 or below..

Personally you are better of getting something custom to you... after all that is what a pro would do...

I'd never buy a pro bat again personally but I can see the allure..

A pro would also be physically different from even very good club player - weights, daily practise, diet. So could potentially handle a heavier bat.

Think you will find Hawk isn't the only place. No doubt Hawk make quality bats and pros do use their bats, but to say they are the only place...?

Hawk Cricket used to have a nice web site. This current web site is a nightmare.

Jonny Bairstow must go through some bats!

Hunts County could probably make something remarkably similar to a Newbery Legacy, at half the price or less.

Agreed.  Not sure there is a bat out there good enough to make me persevere with a website so bad
