About Quality : This bat looks and feel very high in quality and finish is great. Comes with a small head bag for some protection. Amazon tried their best to deliver this bat without damage. i got it delivered in a huge box, all my neighbours been wondering about me that i ordered some home theatre system. 2. This is a purpose bat and it wont suit everyone. it suits for : new players, players with low budget, players who want durability over game dynamics, players who just play for fun. player who just want secondary bat for rough use. it not suit for : intermediate player who like to improve their game. can it beat its competitor The mighty yonex gr303? the answer is 35% yes and 65% no. yes because its build quality is considerably higher then gr303. no because it feels slightly bit heavier then gr303. So if anyone who played with less than 100gm bats then they should avoid this as they will feel pain while playing. if anyone just starting to play then they should get it as while using it they can increase their muscle power as it requires some effort to play. also when they change their bat, they will feel that difference in their new bat and will help them improve their game even further. becareful that you can get injuries playing with bat at 100gm if you push yourself too hard.
