I have had 2 Hawks (cricket bats, not birds!) and they have been decent enough.
The lighter one I sold on a long time ago. And I sold a heavier Hawk in my last clear out or the one before...can't remember which.
But decent enough bats and I seem to remember using a Pro one in the nets a few years ago. Was a lovely bat...pick up was great, well balanced and response off the middle was superb.
But was the "pro" any better than some of the other bats I have had? The answer is No, better than some but not as good as others.
But this is subjective really. People likes different weights, different handle shapes, different balance and different feel! Also some like clean 8 grains, some like 30 grains, some like heartwood, and some butterfly stains.
What I am try to say is that everyone is different and to say that there is only ONE brand that everyone should worship is more that a little niave!
That said, if you love the brand then sing it from the rooftops. But try not to be so insanely biased that you sound worryingly obsessive.
