Yeah If I was having the one bat I wouldn't want an overdried one!

I had two bats last year and broke them both before the end of June!! So frustrating. The temptation to buy 4 or 5 for this year so I definitely know I have enough. You want to have at least one in reserve that you use/have used because it can be really off putting trying to use someone elses bat. Likely to get out early on with a different bat.

The hardest thing will be finding it, i am thinking laver but with no reply from them for a while now and the expenses i will incur i am starting to look elsewhere to weigh up my options...

James should be in today, so good idea to drop him a reminder.

My take would be to have 2 bats:
1) Buy a M&H Amplus (if you are going to be playing in Aus)
2) Whilst holidaying in Aus, either try out SCat or have James make one for you and send it over to Aus (cheaper postage and jsut in case you are not happy easier to return!)

Lots of chat about these amplus but haven't seem any pics as yet

Am I the only one?

Must admit those Amplus's look amazing.....

If I was going to Oz I think I'd definitely be paying mr millichamp a visit for a SCAT

They're on the m&h website mate very similar to the gt IMO only bigger

hell4leather cricket · « **Reply #23 on:** January 03, 2011, 12:02:33 AM »

are they only available in 1 grade @�350?

Ayrtek Cricket · « **Reply #24 on:** January 03, 2011, 12:02:40 AM »

Just looks like a chunkier version of the harlequin (?) to me

Colesy · « **Reply #25 on:** January 03, 2011, 12:02:55 AM »

A bigger, concaved Harlequin

Ayrtek Cricket · « **Reply #26 on:** January 03, 2011, 12:03:57 AM »

Looks like it as they are made from oversized clefts which will demand a higher price tag...�304 in globe in Bristol apparently

I've seen one in the flesh, interesting shape but not one I like or could see many using.

Then again many said that about another certain design of bat!

Bang-on Tom. High to mid middle but according to Rod, will hit the ball well even low down due to the amount of wood on the bat. Must appreciate the size and pick-up on the Amplus and the Distinction

Ayrtek Cricket · « **Reply #29 on:** January 03, 2011, 12:06:52 AM »

Yeh those oars will never catch on Tom

might have a look tomorrow if I get time at them, seem distinctions and wouldn't mind trying one....think amplus will be too high a middle for Bristol pitches
