Yeah i bet who ever thought up Boom Boom never knew about Basil Brush. Nice looking bat that MB and Mr Hosk i have not seen many Kookaburra bats up in this topic!! Does the man not like them? Or are they to come in the near future? I was thinking you are bound a ricky ponting or graphite covered beast some where? And as a vague question what is your most recent addition to your collection? Also have you purchased a Gray Nics legend? And what bat is going to be your match bat for the season to come.

BAT 41 - Millichamp & Hall Custom made

This is such an unusual bat! It weighs in at around 2'12 and has the nice retro type stickers on.
It has a superb pick-up which feels lighter than its' weight, and has absolute perfect pressing! The mallet bounces off the bat, and I have found that the middle is immense!
As you will see from the pics of the bat, the edges are nothing special.....so some people would not appreciate that! But the spine height is 70-80mm! The spine goes the full length of the bat ensuring there is meat and power almost wherever the ball is hit from on the bat! I am really looking forward to giving this bat a go, as I suspect that it will just be fantastic!
To summ up...the pick-up, balance, middle and performance will be excellent! Will it make it into my main kitbag? I suspect it might just sneak in there!

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