What you can expect from your Kookaburra bat.

In the production of our Cricket Bats Kookaburra use willow sourced in the UK from the World’s leading growers–in combination with their definitions & experience the qualities of willow that you can expect to receive are as follows.

• Jos Buttler Replica Grade–these bats are made from the same grade of willow which is used for Jos’own bats & as such they are graded wholly on performance not appearance. If you are looking for a bat which has the potential to perform as well as those used by Jos,then these are the ones for you

 

• PlayersGrade–these bats will be the best-looking blades in our range.In our production process,these bats have been identified as being those that will perform better than others of the same appearance.There will be at least 6 fairly straight grains visible on the face but there also may be some red wood on the edge.The playing area should be clean but there may be a small knots orspecks in the edge or back of the bat.

 

• ProGrade–the grain structure will be similar to the‘Players’with at least 6 fairly straight grains visible on theface but there also may be some red woodon the edge.The playing area should be clean but there may be small knots or specks in the edge or back of the bat.

 

• 1.1Grade–visually very similar to the‘Pro’but there will usually be more red wood visible & potentially the odd blemish or butterfly in the grain on the face of the blade; however,this will not impact on theperformance of thebat.

 

• 2.1Grade–these bats will have around 5 grains on the face with potentially more red wood than the 1.1. The grains will not necessarily be straight & there will be some specks or butterfly marks onthe grains on the face of the bat; however, they represent excellent value for money & are ideally suited to the Club player.

 

• 3.1Grade–there will be typically 4 grains with a greater proportion of red wood,more blemishes & marks on the face–again these bats offer excellent performance & represent good value.

 

• 4.1Grade-the grain structure will be similar to the ‘Players’ with potentially 4 grains visible on the face; however,there will be more stain in the wood making these bats less attractive visually but again performance will not be impacted.

 

• 5.1Grade–these bats have been selected during our production process for their performance,they will bemore heavily stained than other bats but may still play as well as more expensive options.

 

• 6.1Grade–these bats have been selected during our production process on the basis of their performance, they will be more heavily stained than 5.1 Grade.

 

• 6.2Grade–these bats have been selected during our production process on the basis of their performance, they will be more heavily stained than 6.1 Grade.

 

• 6.3Grade–these bats have been selected during our production process on the basis of their performance, they will be more heavily stained than 6.2Grade.

 

• 6.4Grade(Pro Shield Face with Natural back)–these blades have significant staining & cosmetic marks which make it impractical for them to be sold as a ‘natural’ bat; however,these marks have no impact on the performance of the bat,and as such it perfectly possible to get an excellent ‘driving’bat from this grade. To cover these blemishes,we developed our‘Pro Shield’ cover which is a Durable Lightweight Anti-scuff type material with the grain of a cricket bat sublimated on to the face. This allows Players who have limited budgets to own a bat that looks cosmetically attractive.

 

• 6.5Grade(Pro ShieldFace with Naturalback)–these bats are similar in quality to the 6.4 but have heavier blemishes to the back of the bat making them unattractive to sell with the natural back–by applying a coat of paint to the back it allows us to produce an excellent entry level bat giving players on a limited budget to enjoy the performance benefits of English Willow at a low price

Important Bat Facts

1.Many players look for a bat with a narrow grain structure as they feel that these bats will perform better.This can be the case albeit that the bat will normally not last as long as one with wider grain.

2.Abat with narrow grains has been made from an older tree which is naturally more brittle & although it is can‘play’better more quickly it will not last as long as a bat with fewer grains. When buying a bat, it is obviously entirely your choice as to what you want the bat to look like,but youshould be aware that narrow grained bats do break more quickly and that is not in anyway a defect in the materials used or the workmanship and as such it is unlikely that these breakages will be covered by any warranty.

3.Imperfections in the face of the bat are purely cosmetic & do not impact upon how the bat performs-they can often add strength to the bat & mean that they offer enhanced value for money.

4.In the modern world,climate change can also be seen to have an impact on the willow that is grown.it is increasingly common for trees to grow more each year which results in the grain being wider; therefore,in the future narrow grained bats could well become a thing of the past.As part of our manufacturing process,our bat makers evaluate every cleft of wood in determining what model we should produce from it.You can be sure that the quality of the bat you buy from Kookaburra isthe best you can get from that particular quality of willow
