Hey guys i am thinking of getting a puma ballistic, currently use Puma Classic 5000, which is just amazing..but wanted to know more about ballistic, how it is, and the weight and actual pick up of a 2.8lbs bat

but i heard about that carbon injected foam handle..does that make any difference in the bat? the weight and the pick up weight? im thinking of ordering ballistic 5000, 2.8lbs do you think that the actual 2.8 weight on this bat would be lighter because of that carbon handle? or the pick up would be lighter?

Im about to close out a deal with puma, They are gunna sponsor me for this season, ill ask the rep today if i get a chance. But i know greg chappels cricket centre website has puma labels. Right now they are all out of stock because ending of season. He (Michael Osbourne) from cricket centre told me he is getting new stock in Mid July or end of july, i asked him if he will get ballistic lables, i am waiting for his reply. but for sure he iwll have ballistic equipment mid july. He is the best in cricket equipment.

my bat has nice 8 straight grains, i know this guy in UK, named Junaid Akram who owns A store called Monty cricket, he had my bat specially made by Puma. Dude, i havent used a bat this good. it hasa huge sweet spot, so much wood you can see ..plus very thick edges. IT just feels good to pick it up..mine is 2.8LBS. I have used many bats, kookaburra, SS Ton, PRedetor, and others, but this bat is just amazing, the handle is off the hook so much flexibility with that Carbon core handle, the ball just flys off..
