GM LUNA DXM Original and LE bats (exclusive pictures)

[Majid_V3]

Took these pictures yesterday at my local cricket shop mapperley sports (www.cricketsales.co.uk)
All 4 bats looked peng and awesome grains. Stickers were best I've ever seen on any bat. Pictures do not do justice to how good the bats looked in real and my phone camera is not that great. I originally took these pictures for a pak passion member to show him but hes not got back to me.

Three bats are 2.7 and second frm left weighs 2.6. Nice clean straight grains on all 9-10. The balance, feel and pick up is still very good despite the weird shape and lower sweetspot. I felt the bats are more suited for front foot play and low bouncing pitches. Edges roughly 28-30mm.

If anyone is looking to buy any GM bats, I would recommend them mapperley sports. They are based in Nottingham UK same city as GM bats are made. They have very close/good links with GM and have the best selection(handpicked) GM bats available in the world.

Feel free to ask any question(s) and leave comment(s) if you like the bats or not. thanks

Enjoy the pictures (pleny of pictures taken frm every angle, can see the shape and the cutouts/scoops clearly.)

Excellent pics Majid ......... they do look stunning. Do you have any weights from left to right ?

[Majid_V3]

thanks. the weights are frm left to right.  2.7, 2.6, 2.7 and 2.7
when i posted pictures of these last nyt I said these belonged to me and some ppl here even believed me. I was just messing to see if anyone got bit jealous & how they react and everything.

Oh right, fair enough...still honesty is the best policy lol
They look very good, and big for the weights!

Great pics mate....nice to get to see the scooped out bits closer up and at different angles

Picked up one of these at the gm trip back in nov and was an awsome bat not as much wood taken out as you think as still enough wood there for a decent middle

[johan95]

They do look very nice...Roco which was your favourite bat you picked up at the GM factory..? Luna is beginning to grow on me a lot

[Roco]

Trotts ashes bat then the Luna

[johan95]

You got a feel of Trott's Ashes bat?! Nice...! What weight was it, bet it was a pearler...
Luna's seem quite nice, these ones look patricularly tasty

[Roco]

Felt about 2lb8/9 but was huge profile of a 3lb bat easy

[johan95]

Sounds Damn Impressive...Pros get such good bats, but more importantly, know how to use them better than we do haha
Lucky man you are though...out of interest, did anyone buy a bat when they were there, surely it might have been tempting

[Roco]

We we're not allowed to purchase from gm as they have an agreement to only sell direct to retail otherwise there would have been a few purchased

The "pro" bats they had were interesting as some were not very cosmetically appealing but the grader said that it would perform so most pro's did not care but there was a separate pallet for pro le original willow

[johan95]

Yeah, I envisoned there might have been something like that, still it must have been a very productive and interesting trip!!
I guess that's fair with their pros bats, as most don't care, but some are really picky. Was the Trott one a looker? I haven't really seen a close-up of one of his bats..!
Pro LE Original Willow sounds very special indeed. Must turn pro quick then haha

[Roco]

I meant a separate pallet for each one for pro one for le one for original bats etc

Trotts was nice all round

[johan95]

Oh right lool, got a bit confused there  But hey! Not surprised Trott's was nice all round to be honest
