My top 5 GN scooped bats are.....
1. Original Dynadrive from the 80s/90s - still my favourite shape and had one which had an unbelievable middle (hit my first six with one, so has a special place in my heart!)
2. Original Xiphos - had an amazing Extreme model which felt sooo light for its weight and again amazing middle
3. Phoenix - prob influenced by Matty Hayden in his pomp (unfortunately usually prolific in the Ashes!)
4. 2022/3 Megapower reissue - felt it went better than the original megapower from the 80s/90s or its successor, the Sabre, and liked the square toe.
5. A leftfield choice, not quite sure if it is a true "scoop", but Megadrive from the early 2000s with its many linear ridges over the back - again had an amazing powerblade but I know a lot of people didn't get on with it.
From the non-GN scooped bats.....
1. Original Kookaburra Ridgeback from the 90s/2000s (that resembles the Dynadrive)
2. Kookaburra Ridgeback 2024 reissue (UK model that resembles the Dynadrive)
3. Slazenger V800 (original one, from the 90s, with the two eyes on the back)
4. Puma Evolution from 2000s
5. Another leftfield choice (never had one but always wanted one as a bit unique shaped) - Stuart Surridge Turbo TBS (Total Balance System) bat
