Evening All,
Got a question as stated in the title.
Forum members:- You have £200 to spend on a new bat. What would you expect for that price?
Sponsors:- what could you offer/recommend us? Or make us etc...
Reds

For £200 I would want a nice G1 that's shaped the way I want it! £200 is a lot of money to me...I know you can pay £400 for a G1 but I'd want G1 for that price
-
200 quid. An off the shelf bat, with ok looks. And decent performance.
-
Me for that I would expect grade 1 decent light cleft decent look and play like a dream mate
-
For £200 is expect a bat, gloves, pads and change!
-
I'd get a Warsop G1 Platinum at £180, possibly shaped like Graham Napier (for something different and new), and spend the remaining £20 on alcohol.
-
For £200 I could make a custom g1 bat to the buyers specs. Choice of cleft from a selection of suitable clefts, handle shape, middle height, the works.
-
I would want a good looking and performing g1 bat when you consider some smaller brands offer custom mades for a lot less
-
A B&S Scorch.
Anything handpicked from the mid ranges of GN, Kook and TON.
GM 808 would get you a Great bat and enough money left over for a coaching session in our net.
I could have a handmade G1 made to your shape for £165, by Hunts. I'll handpick the cleft for you too.

This. This is why Hunts are GReat! Get yourself a 90's Insignia or Reflex!

if they still had the stickers that would be well cool - had a really nice Reflex about twenty years ago, totally flew!

Just been given a retro Hunts in very good condition. Sill have to get some pics up.
For £200, I'd expect top performance and decent looks. Either in a reasonably high range off-the-shelf or something custom made.

Not to compromise on grade, quality or performance...

Probably look at a TK made bat from BB or Python or the £165 hunts made bat from vitas.
