Title: New Supreme
Post by: FirstSlip on July 03, 2012, 08:50:51 PM
Needed to replace a couple of Fusion Superbests and decided to give Paul a go.
After a phone call and a couple of emails decided on 2.8-2.9, a bit lighter than the Fusions.
New bat arrived just over two weeks later.
Service was excellent and bat weight and pick-up is just as hoped for.
Just one negative - there is a dent in the back of the toe, which I guess happened in transit.  Personally I'm not that bothered, but I fed back to Paul that he might want to consider using bubble wrap to mitigate against this sort of thing.
Hopefully I can work out how to upload some photos!

Sorry to say I still haven't used the new bat in the middle thanks to not wanting to get the toe damp in the great British summer we've been having!

Had previously seen his section on Duck and Run website (got coloured pads from there) and then saw offer on here.

Welcome to the forum fella!
That's a serious chunk of wood for the weight!! I hope it goes well for you.
He has made some impressive bats for sure!  ;)
