Looks really good Kieron, can't decide which stickers I like best but I think the smaller ones on the bat at the back.

Really like the stickers and profile however I agree the small ones look the dogs!

Do you mean the thin ones ? They are Cadbury colour as well. Just looks dark on the photo. The dark bit is actually the Cadbury colour way.

Gosh!! I am most firmly aroused by both the profile and the stickers.

Top work K-Dog, it takes a lot to pump my onions these days, but this is doing the trick!

Beautiful bat ....one question some of your bats have the spine ending till the toe and some end 2 inches above toe
what is the deciding factor for that ?

Sounds a really good deal Kieron, graphics look spot on!

Could you share a bit more about the actual shape - maybe specifics and comparison vs the other recent profiles you've been listing, ST, Prior, Ampus as a example. Thanks!

Different models have different shapes. Personally I prefer the flat bottom as opposed to the spine all the way down but other people prefer it.

Yes we have been playing with some shapes to see which we like best hence why we have had a few different profile available.

The Barrera is this shape
The pedigree is going to evthe prior shape or GT type profile.
The spirit is the tendulkar profile.

But to be honest all the bats are the same price so we if a customer wants a particular shape bat with particular decals applies we are happy to do that.

Hope that makes sence

I think it is their online reviewer - Ed Kemp who is, from personal experience, not someone I would in anyway describe as a "choppa".

Ed and Laurence are the 2 lads giving it a go, both very competent cricketers but not such good drinkers :)
