First Bat :Kookaburra Ridgeback 200
Best Bat :Kookaburra Big Kahuna(120 odd meter Six).I think I have scored more runs in sixes with this bat than any of my other combined.

First bat - Slaz V100 - PLANK

Best Bat - CA 1000 - gun!!

First bat: Got at an age of 3 years or so still remember it, an off white plastic bat and a plastic ball too was gifted to me.

Best ever bat: SG reliant(It is made in India)

First Bat - Kookaburra Ridgeback (dream bat at the time used by thorpe, bevan !!
Best Bat - Smasher Bully (awesome plank of wood)

First Bat: was a Duncan Fearnely Magnum AB (Allan Boarder) 209* or something like that - it was very small (size 4) and at the time I don't think I was caring about a decent middle - as long as it could the incrediball that my old man was throwing at me I was happy.

Best Bat: I had a Slazenger V100 "Marto Special" that was based on the V100's that Damien Martyn was using at the time. My batting coach at the time had contacts with Damien and I got one one out of his batch bin! it was incredible! but alas, the handle broke half way through the season - Slazenger re-handled it for me free of charge but it just wasn't the same - it is now my back yard bat

First bat - Newberry series one superb grain lovely pick up had a harrow was by far the greatest thing i have ever had in my life including my wife !!

Best Bat - The Newberry !! (Also love M&H back in the hay day they were superb now become very commercial and i believe the standard and grade of willow replicates that !)

I have heard Island sports make good bats in the UK they are based in the South West somewhere might check them out !

First cricket bat = Gray Nicholls Power bow 5** Michael Atherton SPecial

Best Bat = Hunts County - Glory what a blade

First bat : Britannia little master
Best bat : BDM 6sixes

First Bat: Hand me down Gray Nicholls - owned by 2 older brothers in turn before me. Would be considered a plank today - but good in its day. I oiled it with love

Best Bat: 2007 Gray Nicholls Predator with Carbon graphite handel. Ping!

My first ever bat was a BAS Vampire. Awesome Bat
And my Best Ever bat was RBK
oh yea baby. dat thing is pure awesomeness. it was given to me by Suresh Raina( Indian Cricket player) in 2005. we called the cric players over for dinner. it was a tri series in zimbabwe between India, ZIm and New Zealand. WIch NZ won. yea i still have dat bat and still play wid it. i also have a bat wid all d cric players signature. but i dnt play wid it. I feel so proud wenever i see it.

"Pure awesomeness"  Brilliant! My first bat was my best bat.  Grey Nicholls Four-Scoop, quite light compared to my current bat:    It was my best friend out in the middle;  When I took strike  my feet, bat and hands just seemed to fit together perfectly:  never had that feeling with any other bat since.  Still miss it to this day.

I'v only had a few and my first ever bat was a county lethal 100, it was huge for me at the time but now its like a twig, i then got a redback surefire from an english player who came over for a season and now i'v got a Bradbury S Players and its friggen awesome ay! so light, pings off it without even trying.....legendary

First Bat: Gray Nicholls - Fusion Ignite with Carbon Handle

Best Bat: GM Icon - Original L.E ( Its a GUNNN )

first bat:SS Canon
Best bat:Sg sunny tonny and sg reliant

Slazenger V100 when i was bout 7

Best bat: Gray Nicholls Ultimate 300. Brother brought about 7 years ago from CashCoverters for 60 dollars and it just broke about 4 weeks ago it was a bloodly good bat!

First bat - Gray Nicholls Ultimate - a good bat, I still have it after 15 years, although big chunks are missing from one side of the toe.

Best bat - other than that one, the new Slazenger V3 I have at the moment is pretty nice, has nice thick edges and a huge middle. Touch wood it lasts as long as my Ultimate.

In between I had two more GNs, a Hunts and a Newbury. None of them lasted more than two seasons.

First Bat used GM Radius a few years ago now - since then a few years ago I have been using SuperSports Bats. These bats are unreal! amazing willow. Big sweet spot - comes off like a bullet - i use a 2.7lbs and ive had it for 2 seasons now and scored plenty!

I would recommend these bats to anyone - 90% of the people in the prem division, and 4 out the top 5 batsmen for 2010 use it. Just goes to show how good these bats are!
