Many people starting the game.. come to the clubs with awful bats from cheap high store shops.. with already dead rubbers or both sides the same colour. Well this bat beats them all.. the rubbers are good to start off with.. the ball actually bounces off the blade.. vibrant.. not too heavy.. a good teaching bat// can spin with it, can smash.. and it has a fundamental advantage.. of having good control.. beginners can measure their own progresa. Many players taking part in our community activity/beginner's junior league are satisfied with their bat. The coaches are happy as they know the players won't get obsessed by the equipment.
