When do I need to change my bat
Equipment
John Beech Asked 8 years ago
At present I use a Pingskills Rook which I like and feel is suitable for my level of play. I play about 2 to 3 hours a week.
Does the rubber deteriorate with either age or prolonged use?
What signs of wear should I look for, apart from obvious accidental scuffs and marks?
How often do you change your bat?

Hi John,
The Rook should last around a year of your development. Check to see if the rubber is worn by rubbing your finger across the surface. If it is slippery then it is time to change the rubber and or whole bat.
It looks like you have had yours for nearly 2 years so it is probably time to change it.

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
