My blue room new wave has a 3 springs in the handle.

Thanks Norbs
I think I probably prefer a stiff handle - although I have never actually thought about it. What would be the typical characteristics of someone who would go for whippy or stiff? Might have to start a new topic for this...!

"do you prefer whippy of stiff"...!

[procricket]

look at most indian players they prefer whippy hense wristy players

One minor change i that I've removed one grip - I did have 2 quite thick grips on. But as the handle seemed quite thick already, it feels better with a single grip. And the weight has dropped to 2lb 11 3/4oz!

And just for Norbs, a couple more pics! (Sorry but no 50p!)

BAT 20 - Newbery GT335 SPS (Cadbury Stickers)

This bat weighs in at 2lb 8 1/4oz and feels gorgeous. And in my opinion it looks pretty gorgeous too!
If this were a human, it would be your older sister's cool, trendy and lush mate who you always liked!!
Pick-up is light and anyone could bat all day with it! The grains look fab and the edges are not huge -simply adequate!
But it knocks up so well with the mallet!

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

My kind of bat, very nice Pete. Brimble special is it?

[petehosk]

Yep - Brimble original! He gets some blinders!! 

[raymond.2]

Do you have a monthly direct debit set up with him then?

Really nice newbery is that, just seems to be a great profile... not too chunky and the cadbury stickers are sweeet!

Some people may have "sex wee'd" after seeing that lol

[petehosk]

A fair amount of wonger has gone to Mike, but only in return for some seriously lush willow! 

And that made me laugh colesy 
The bat looks nicer in the flesh too!
