BAT 12 - Newbery Grizzly LE (not the pro)

This is not the Pro Grizzly - am saving that for another time!
But this is still a beauty!! I think it came from Mike originally, although I got it in a trade and it's a fab light one - 2'7 according to my ultra accurate digital scales!
It has a slight nitch on the blade, but I'm pretty sure it will not affect the way the bat plays if I do use it.
Has 9/10 lovely grains and feels so light. This is one bat I'm tempted to use but not sure if my timing would be out as I normally use 2'12-2'15!

Pics to follow..............

I have a question in my pissed state love being home
if the 400 nicker bat is that good why ain't you used it
no need for abuse the beer garden is fine

[petehosk]

That's a fair question. comparethedearbat.com simples!
Well.....the same reason I don't want to use my Flintoff bat or any of the pro bats just yet!
And that reason is cos I have only been playing cricket for 5 or 6 years, and each year I find myself moving up the batting order, playing new and better shots, batting improving, and my average getting better!
So as the 400 quid bat has a short life but will live fast and go like a rocket, then I want to ensure that I will be in the best form possible! And only then will I feel like I'll actually do it some sort of justice!

BAT 13 - Gunn & Moore Purist Original (stickered as Icon)

This Purist is 2'8 with very Purist like traditional profile, but someone kindly ensured that it had the nicer Icon labels.
It has thin edges but with bulges the size of a Russian ballet dancer (for the light weight at least!)
I haven't used this yet, but one of my work collegues used it in the nets and it went well.

As usual, pics to follow...............

These bats are in the kit secion chap...not the 'for sale'.
So not really planning to sell any particularly unless there were a few nice offers on the table!
