It started in 2005 with A. This would make C4 April 2007.

G - 2012
F - 2011

I was always told that the number was the batch number rather than the actual month.

Wasn't that very shoulder stamp on a certain GT SPS with Cad stickerage? ;)

You can both stay away from that:P

Although it's an interesting point when the cad stickers came back in year of the G/H I believe....

Post by: TangoWhiskey on November 07, 2013, 05:02:47 PM: When I picked my bat up last weekend, none of them had shoulder stamps on. That is to say until I bought mine, where he put the shoulder stamp on after I had paid.

My Tour has got a small '1' stamped on it, but it is very faint. Not sure what it means...

Chad - that '1' stamped on the shoulder means that you need to sell it to me for the Princely sum of £1! They obviously left the £ sign off!

If you squint your eyes slightly, you might see a '3' before the '1' and a '0' after that! ;)

It is a beauty and makes a beautiful sound - I don't care what the 1 stands for haha!
