GM cricket bat manufacturers are renowned for the highest quality and longest record of incredible English Willow cricket bats in the cricket bat industry. They have once again picked up their game for 2018 by introducing fresh and exciting ranges of cricket bats. One of the most exciting in these ranges of cricket bats is the GM Kaha Cricket Bats for 2018.
The Willow on the GM Kaha Cricket Bat
The GM Kaha cricket bat comes in a wide variety of top English willows throughout the range. At its premium there is the GM Kaha DXM LE cricket bat and the GM Kaha Original which is made with premium limited edition English willow and Grade 1 English Willow respectively. It is also available in Grade 2, Grade 3 and Grade 4 English Willow, to best suit your budget when buying the GM Haze cricket bat.
Availability
The GM Kaha cricket bat comes in a wide variety of willow grades and has different names that distinguish them. Cricket Store Online makes it clear on each product page to know exactly which GM Kaha cricket bat you are buying and what the grade of willow is. The availabilities are:
Sweet Spot and L-Sweet
As mentioned the GM KAHA cricket bat has the latest L-Sweet cricket bat technology from GM. This means that GM have varied the lengths of the blades and handles on their range of bats. This gives batsmen a better opportunity to select the cricket bat that will best suit their style of play. A longer handle for a real power hitter or perhaps the traditional face of the cricket bat for a top order stroke maker.
The GM KAHA cricket bat has the lowest sweet spot of all the GM Cricket bats in the 2018 range. It would be considered in the mid to low sweet spot position and still offers a huge amount of versatility and power. The mid to low sweet spot position does not detract from the power this bat has all over including in the shoulders and toe.
Grip
Like all the bats in the GM range of cricket bats for 2018, the GM KAHA cricket bat comes fitted with the GM Dynamic Grip. Players absolutely love the dynamic grip because it is exactly as its name suggests, Dynamic. It offers a different feel on the top hand of the cricket bat to the bottom hand. This is because they perform different functions for the batsman when he is playing his shot. It is for very good reason that GM has fitted all of their 2018 cricket bats with a GM Dynamic Grip.
Toe
The GM Kaha cricket bats come with a toe guard fitted as standard.
Handle
The handle of the GM Kaha cricket bats are made with premium cane. Cane is the best material for a cricket bat handle as it prevents vibration to the hands of the batsman and promotes power in the face and blade of the cricket bat. The semi-oval handle on the cricket bat is known to be the most comfortable and give the batsman the most amount of control. That is why the GM Neon cricket bats have semi-oval handles.
GM Now!
For a few seasons now GM has finished their cricket bats with GM Now! GM Kaha cricket bats are also finished with GM Now! This means that the bat has been treated to a light knock-in, a coating of raw linseed oil and a professionally fitted anti-scuff sheet on the face of the blade and the shoulders. As mentioned GM Now!, also means that the bat has a professional ToeTek toe guard fitted. This process limits the possibility of dampness seeping into the bat and the toe swelling. Players till need to take good care of their cricket bats to ensure that they are not neglected and therefore damaged.
The Numbers
The important numbers on the GM Kaha range of cricket bats are as follows. The GM Kaha ranges in weight from 2lbs9oz to about 2lbs13oz, this makes it one of the heaviest bat in the GM range of cricket bats. The weight distribution on this bat is superb and gives the batsman a huge amount of power with the size of the willow.
The edges on this cricket bat are a massive 37mm, this is huge power and stability for the rest of the bat.
Players these days like to multiply the edge size with the swell depth as well as other factors. The swell depth on the GM Kaha cricket bat is 67mm, this overall gives huge power to the face of the cricket bat and ensures maximum ball power striking on every shot played with the GM Kaha cricket bat.
