My Black Cat Joker Review ! Now With Pictures
« on: February 27, 2010, 10:35:14 PM »

Thought it would be good to do a review of a brand which I've absolutely no experience of at all, i pre ordered my bat on the 15th of Feb and paid if full. was told id have it i in around 2 weeks, Obviously i have read the various comments regarding the size and profile and about it being revolutionary. I like to try things which are new and not from the main stream brands which many go for.

Spec

2lb 10oz standard short handle with 12 clean straight grains with no marks or blemishes, I've also asked for the bat not to have any heartwood or maximum of 3 grains worth, not convinced or a fan of heartwood but that's my personal opinion and each to there own. I requested an massive profile with light pick up and balance but have been specific regarding performance in than i want something with top top drawer performance.

Obviously the bat has not been released yet although I'm told to expect delivery next week, once i have it i will take pics of the profile etc and post. I'm looking forward to doing a full review of the bat and i will do a full review once I've received the bat and provide as much detail as possible. The review will be my honest opinion and thoughts to the bat and brand, as I've said I'm very much looking forward to it and I'm expecting a lot.

Do you not feel slightly worried about spending £200+ on a product you've never seen, seen used or heard much about!?

I don't personally - although I have spoken to a couple of people who have enlightened me about the Joker - sounds like a great T20 bat!
Obviously the Shadow I know from Slogger is a great bat!

I didn't mean that smart (No Swearing Please), I was refering to your statement about this bat being a joke!
