Question: are gray nicolls bats ready to play?
Answer: The way of knowing if your bat is Pre-Prepared is to look if your bat has a little GN silver sticker with PP (Pre-Prepared) or RP (Ready Play) on the top back shoulder. ... If your bat does not have our silver sticker, then you will need to knock in yourselves - you will need to oil and knock in for 6-7 hours.
