There seem to now be a lot of people on this forum who are very economical with the truth when it comes to bats in particular, and who make it blatently obvious from the start that they are simply on the forum to promote their products (naming no names)

I'm planning to get a kookaburra too. I'm looking at diblo fury, kahuna nemesis, and genessis cyclone.
Do kahuna bats still use that thing on the back of the blade??

Leezy,

be careful you don't get a Kookaburra with the graphite reinforcement on the back.They are banned in the Comp.I have emailed Phil Lovegreen about this and there's no way they will relax their ruling!A bit daft when they can be used in county cricket!

Cheers,

Mark.

I know mate, I won't be, not convinced by the graphite anyway.  You had a good start to the season?

Probably me dad I think mate, got a couple against ormskirk last week, and one against bootle, but 3 in 4 games isn't the ideal start for an opening bowler

Good luck recovering from that injury, maybe I'll see you soon!

One of my friends has the top Kahuna model and I have to say that the Kookaburra bats I have come across seem a little hard pressed.

Don't Believe the Hype
