My CA 12000 TRD

[xkalibur80]

So finally I was able to find some time to upload pictures of my newly acquired CA TRD....weight is 2.8lbs with a nice pick up.

The middle sounds pretty sweet, however, I h.aven't tested it in the nets yet.

I have been knocking the toe over the last few days as it sounds dead!! One thing that I did notice while knocking is that the dents are not appearing on the bat - I am not a bat guru so not sure if it has to do with the bat being hard pressed or if it requires more oiling to make the willow softer??

Enjoy!

Looks very good, did you measure the edges ?

I would like to know the reason why dents aren't appearing on your TRD because I have noticed those dents don't appear on Pakistani bats for some reason.

In my opinion, you have oiled it enough no need to oil more.

 

[xkalibur80]

No I haven't measured the edges but will go tonight - I have taken more pictures that I will post later on as well.

This is the first pakistani bat where the dents aren't appearing - I have had AS/UT and CA8000 and there were visible dents from knocking them in.

Does this mean, I am ready to do with this bat? Monster is about to be unleashed?

Have throwdowns first and see if you can see seam marks.

Very nice bat, what is the ping like on this bat?

What type of handle is it ? Oval ?

Nice bat bro, put a anti-scuff sheet on to prevent any crack damage.

Sometimes you have to hit the mallet really hard to form a dent. Keep knocking in the toe as my one sounded dead initially as well.

 

[xkalibur80]

The ping is awesome - I can feel it during the knocking process.....so far, I have only been able to cause one dent which is not that big anyway.....I will keep knocking and then apply the sheet

If you hit really hard it is crack the willow because these willows are dry naturally.

I never got dents on my MB's and CA

Cork springs in a TRD handle? What was CA thinking??

My CA [12000 Plus] and MB [Bubber Sher and LE] both have same thing.

But my AM has rubber strips, 3 black ones similar to Newbery.

Does cork springs make it weaker yaar ?

Mujhay handle ki kabhi nahi samaj aaegee!!

 

[Quick Single]

Mujhe bats ki kabhi samaj nahi aedee.

 

[xkalibur80]

used it for the first time last sunday and got out for a duck - I am disappointed...back to Newbery!!!

Workman, tools etc.

 

[Cover Drive]

Abbay yaar I think whenever anyone use a bat for the first time he goes for duck. I used Puma 6000 in practice match got out for 0, Puma 3000 in a game got out for 0 issed:

 

[xkalibur80]

Workman, tools etc.

[SalmanK]

huh??

bad workman blames his tools

 

[ammo]

you have a brilliant TRD it isn't a max grainer but the amount of grains is perfect, looks like a good stick.
