Title: Going for a new bat at the end of the season. Advice please?
Post by: ajmw89 on July 06, 2012, 03:12:28 PM

Hi Guys,  I'm looking at getting a new handmade bat at the end of this season/start of next.  Which companies/bats would people reccomend?  My budget is about £140.  Generally prefer something with a mid-low placed middle, and from about 2.12 upwards.
Cheers

SAf or h4l  for me. Both make top bats and have good customer service.

You only need look down the column of the forum to see plenty of custom bat makers. Then you could see where they are located and find a couple closest to you. Then email them and discuss your requirements and if there is one batmaker with whom you get a warm and fuzzy feeling, then go for it!  ;)

I think £140 is a bit ambitious for a custom bat - solitaire are the only brand I can think of that are that cheap

Not so much custom, but more handmade.  Sorry, should've been clearer!

You could always buy something from the items for sale section. You can get some  g1 bats for around your price range.

Watch for a Redback in the sale or a BB T20 if you can find one.
