I got home tonight to the Torque G1 I bought from Lorimers a couple of weeks ago, after having it knocked in. The bat is 2.12 nice clean face with 10 grains. It rebounds nicely off the mallet and with a ball. Took pics next to my HitsHard Super Power.

That's a lovely profile! What bats are you bringing along Sunday mate?
-
nice to see both offering from the Salix boys, both are a lovely profile....not so keen on the can of carling though!
-
I knew someone would comment on that! If someone brings alcohol to my house it would be rude not to drink it!!
-
haha in that case your are excused if someone bought it for you, cider is the only acceptable drink down here :)

I'm not sure, too much choice! I'll bring the velocity for Dave to have a look at, the torque and a couple of others. Took a pic of them all lined up

-
That's a beaut
-

-

I think if we all get there early we could be started for quarter to!
I'll bring the Affinity along, pick up is outstanding and it goes really well!
-
Yeah I'll be there early then lads!
-
Good net Jb and Tony, That CK22 is some serious bit of kit lovely pick up for the weight in line with the best pick ups out there and the Salix and that Affinity 20/20 bat has a lovely shape and pick up..
Tony's Python went well today a nice bat too happt days..
JB you have some serious bats mate.
-
Yeah I enjoyed it! I loved the torque...for me it's better than the CK22 and the rest of the bats in JB's partially because I just liked the pickup and shape
-
The torque has a lovely feel. I need another grip on the CK22! It has a lovely long middle though. Need to get the HH & Aldred knocked in, you should have had a go with the toro dave! I fancy a Phantom or Carbine to go with it
-
Only brought one bat as you know today JB. It might be turning into my match bat it went well i thought
-
It sounded lovely!
-
yeah it sounded lovely, middle seemed large aswell Dave

He did 2 Sundays ago however this week I was more focused on playing in my python. My python surprised me with how good it actually is considering it's only just been knocked in and used yesterday and today, with drives they would have gone
-
Come on Rob i always lend my bats out hell Tony and another lad tried the Trott bat before i did as well....

Yeah me and Dan used it even before yourself haha! Daves very kind in that respect, he will let you use almost anything...I hope you know Dave your welcome to use any of my kit also - you could have used my strettons for review instead of forking out £70!
-
I was already batting when Dave arrived, but was wanting to use the Torque anyway! Used 2 B3's of his in the last net we had. The one he posted on here that he cut the handle down on was a beauty!
