It's a really tough decision. I guess ultimately, I have gone off Laver and Wood for now. The costs are sky high. I don't have that kind of cash right now. I will look to get one of them sometime in the future though. I will probably get either a Bradbury, Fusion or Impala bat, depending on the feel and possibly the ping. They are all good bats, but it depends which one feels nice.]]> Fri, 14 Apr 2006 05:41:31 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1317&PID=41215#41215 Laver & Wood Prv Bin or Bradbury Sterling : I judge a bat on weather it gives... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1317&PID=40391#40391 Author: Warne in making

Had one last season.Heritage model, 10 grains,large bat about 2/10 ,ok pickup.Nice middle but not right for me.Not as good as the M+H bats James made for me in the mid 90's imho and no where near as good a bat as a grade 2 BDM Master Blaster,which cost half as much,if you judge  bats purely on their power and balance that is.

Mark.

but does the photos of the bats that have just been posted remind you of anything ?we were doing our shape over 2 years ago, they look very familiar to me ![QUOTE=batman100]

bradbury have done that shape for like 5 years and that was impalas original shape and still is going today.

[QUOTE=henjam just about a point you made-a bigger bat will not necesarily ping better than a smaller bat, how it has been pressed and the quality of willow has a big part in that i think?

Both companies use similar wood and press it the same so therefore the bat with more wood will be better as theres more behind the ball.

plus good english willow is light so if theres a really thick bat that weighs 2.7 that will be a good bat, thats why i said get the bat with the most wood but still in your weight!!!

Ponting uses impala as i know a bloke that coached him very early in his career before he went to the academy and they still keep in touch, his name is tim zoehrer (screaming cat's agent) and he told me so. As i said the bat with the most wood will have the best ping as theres more wood behind the bat and impala and bradbury use similiar wood]]> Wed, 29 Mar 2006 11:43:35 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1317&PID=37050#37050 Laver & Wood Prv Bin or Bradbury Sterling : This is getting so confusingRise... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1317&PID=37043#37043 Author: MrLee

This is getting so confusing

Rise of Macca has a point. I had thought that I might get a Bradbury at first, but then changed to Laver and Wood, then changed to Bradbury, Then to Impala and now back to Laver and Wood.

Which has the best PING?

I'll probably get a Impala or Bradbury, they seem VERY good VALUE compared to Laver and Wood. Laver and Wood seem overpriced.

How do you know Ponting uses a Impala. Doesn't he use a Impala Redback?

grains aren't everything you can get bats that have really soft wood without 10+ grains and yes impala are really good bats and yes its true punter is now using impala not sure about clarkey but bradburies and impalas are very good, Julian millichamps new bats are good the Screaming cat althogh some of them have skinny edges but make up for it with the back but you can get that changed while ordering.

There the same shape as the puma tribute (millichamp originised this)

the only difference is the wood but all in all, all these bats are good and it doesnt necessarily need to be custom because these companies have great shapes so ask for your preffered bat weight and it will be good so i don't know why you want the shape customly made when the shapes are already perfect. Every bat will be made for you but in the companies shape and your weight and they are really good bats, choose any out of the laver&wood,impala,bradbury,fusion and screaming cat. (choose the one with the most wood for your preffered  bat weight)

Laver & Wood replied with this,


If you place an actual order before the 15th of April 2006 you will qualify for the "special offer".
If order placed after that time you do not then qualify.

It is definitely possible to get about 10 straight grains on manyPrivate Bin orders but as clefts are not actually selected until afterany orders are received I can not confirm this at this time, but I'msure it would not be a problem. We always confirm details and"requests"  whenever we can if we accept an order.

What do you guys think of this? What should I do now

Ok Guys, Going on your opinions and what I have seen from Laver and Wood.

I emailed L&W about their free "knocking in" and draw entry. They said it ony applied to limited/selected cutomers and regarding grains, they said I don't really have the option to choose! I think for that price I could get a Bradbury Sterling with about 10 straight grains and only $30AUD Cheaper! I sent Laver & Wood and email to confirm this.

Now I can choose between Bradbury and Impala (possibly Fusion, but not too sure). Does anyone else have an Impala, how is the feel etc? I heard Ponting and Clarke now use them, but I'm not sure about Ponting, he still might be using a bradbury. I put up a bat comparison, tell me what you think, it doesn't do justice to my real skills using photoshop, but it was a quick job
