Bat Models
« on: November 03, 2010, 09:44:21 PM »
Bored to death in work and got to wondering if a model of bat has been ever present since the birth of a brand? Obvioulsy newer companies will have but those who have been going 10 - 20 years eg Gray Nics, Kookaburra, GM etc?

The only one that i can think of is the Preastantia? Not sure if its been ever present or how old the company is!!

Started 1990, Praestantia came in around...98-99 at a guess. Yes, I'm sad.

Gunn&Moore seem to periodically re-release the Cannon, but that's still not an ever-present.

Newbery Series 1?

More a range I know, dont think there are many out there apart from the newer brands. Such as McLean.

no kook was ridgebacks and bubbles back then...kahuna was newer. M&H is a good shout with their S6 which used to be cork filed rather than wood i think ??? must go back to early 90's id say and my junior cricketing days when my newbery lightweight was in action :D

S6 was a Signature. Original was early nineties.

Mjolnir has been ever present since 1990.
