Rate your bat

wane in the making bradburies have hell good pick ups they are all 2.9 plus but a 13 year can use them i bought my son exact same bat as me and he averages 50 in under 14s he averages 3 sixes a game ( 50 metre boundaries)

Let's cool down guys, there's no need to get abusive now.

You've got a point, but it's like most things, don't rise to it. By responding to people who say stupid/inflammatory things it only makes the sitution worse.

Now custom bats MAY be better than Kookaburra bats etc, but how can he claim there useless? Obviously people are going to stand by their own opinions for the most part. If they can't do that without resorting to abuse however, that says a whole lot more about them than you, so like JP says, don't rise to it.

Yeah im sorry for rising to it but how can they call kookaburras useless when they cost 100+ and have a great reputation

Yea, and I find them very comfortable.

Yea, I noticed that as well.

I think the bats from the big names are worth their money.

Evidently

they wouldnt, well know companies pay them to use there stickers, and in some cases bats. Dont quote me on this, but i think big companies bat shapes are based on what the pro's want. say the kahuna, i think ponting went to kooka and gave them that shape. ponting then went to his bat maker (bradbury) who then made him his bat which is shaped like a kahuna, then kooka sticker it up. The reason for going with bradbury is wood quality and expert craftmanship. bigger middle, thicker edges but lighter for example. SO i think when you go to a retailer and buy a kahuna you are buying a bat similar to ponting but not exact. In this case I am certain bradbury make pontings bats and clarks for that matter.

This is what i used to think but i heard this from bradbury and laver&wood when i rang each of them up and bradbury said that they USED to make bats for ponting but kookaburra now atually do make his by there expert batmaker.

lol well i atually spoke to the man at bradbury himself and just explained that they used to bt do not anymore!

Dollars have never been, aren't and won't be a valid currency in the UK my friend. Pounds (£) is where it's at.
