-

i'm sure someone on here will know a bit more about them tbh
-
Up the road from me. They are based in Monmouthshire.
-
Like them

Made elsewhere and sanded in Wales, sorry.

That's a shame - the spiel on the about us page seems to go to a massive effort to make you think they are handmade by the Worgan family

thats what my money was on

Look for the giveaway sign of the Octopus grips cut into strips to hold the handle in when fitted.
-
or i could just ask you :)

Mike as much as I agree with you on this one as the shapes are very familiar. I'd like to add the grips cut strips are a great and easy way of holding the splice ears in place when gluing in a splice

I could elaborate a touch for the benefit of younger readers but there may also be a few more pointers than just the Octopus grips....

The first one (furore) looks like the voodoo, the 2nd (rumpus) a GT and im not too sure about the bespoke one but its got a nice shape to it
i quite like the idea of having a bat called rumpus tho :)
-
good news for all the fat people out there!
bit like bosoms bats....

bosoms are not uk made tho

I quite liked the look of the stickers. Like JF said lots of effort goes into making them sound as though they are handmade in a small workshop.

Sounds like morse code to me, any chance of plain english breaking out please :-) Who do you think makes these bats and why?
-
Well as they don't I'd think someone else did and why?, well I'd think because they can.... ;)

It's a bit cheeky when you're not even shaping.
"We pinch ourselves to think that we can be part of someone’s first (or thirty-first) ton; toughest fifty; most memorable shot." I've refurbished my friends bat, does that mean I can take credit for some of his runs?
-
To be fair anyone playing a part in helping anyone score runs should take credit, in which case my bowling has helped many many people....
-
It's downright dishonest from my perspective and a clear attempt to hoodwink people.
Why isn't this a blatant contravention of the trades description act?

Mike can i organise a friendly against your mob, im desperate for some runs

If someone can pm me with what this all means I'd be grateful.

Brimble. . .the amount of quality bats you've sold, you owe bowlers an apology.
-
Their posts got taken off cricket supplies because of spamming. To nearly all new posts was a post along the lines of '' have you tried FatBats'' ''Have you considered FatBats'' Etc
apart from this, i like the look of their bats
-
The true art of the batmaker is not in what he makes nor what he says, but what he doesn't say ;)
-
I don't like this bloody thread.
What you on about? ;)

A welsh bat brand that sell on [facebook (reason enough for me to dislike them)] and sometimes ebay.
I got no links.

Welshist!!! ;)

A lot of these garden shed bat companies ask for a hefty prices for their bats.
-
Yeah Jon there not that bad oh wait ;)

Edited just for you :D

I'd imagine they see what other 'small' brands charge and assume they will be able to get the same prices. What they don't realise is the established small brands establish a good reputation and increase their prices accordingly.
It is a shame with this lot, I've spoken to them quite a bit and yes the impression I was given was that they are made in a garden shed from scratch.
-
Oi. . .do u mind. . . .i am welsh.
-
Sigh.
Gentleman my objection is that they use facebook as their primary selling tool. As I am not a fan of facebook, it is enough to put me off. :D.
-
I live in Wales so know exactly what you lot are like
I know the way it was meant Jon just worth a bit of fun :) :)
-
Do any boys use them round your way Roco
-
Never seen them tbh but the branding looks ok may take a trip down some day
