Title: My Laver
Post by: CUSTOM-BATS on September 07, 2009, 12:18:52 PM
Any thoughts, had it about a year now, still havnt used it yet, i always planned to frame it, as its the best looking blade iv seen, but not sure whether to, or to use it. (sorry poor picture quality, was done on iphone)

Its great to keep bats like this, so hard to find grains like that. I actually had one very similar from James when he was at Taunton, it sat in the shop window for at least a season and drew in the punters. When used it was not that good, maybe the season sat in the sun or not pressed right. I have only just managed the switch from wanting to keep such bats to using them now as means I still have an incentive to look for wonder bats.

Fabulous looking bat. I am sure you did not spend £500+ to get it framed. Go use it and make every man jealous. I am sure it will play better than it looks.....
