I ordered an CA 15000 at the start of this season. I don't believe I did a good job knocking it, as I took it out within 2 weeks of getting it. The bat hardly lasted 5 months and broke in the nets last week. It was a clean break from the handle and I am quite disappointed that the bat broke so soon. One of my club mates told me that bats do break off in a season, but is it just him or others do see similar patterns? Also recommendation for another bat. Not going for CA this time though
