Title: Some Photos of our new H4L NV Bats!
Post by: ItsJustCricket on February 18, 2014, 02:00:24 PM
Quite a few of you have been asking about these, so here you go - they arrived earlier today!  :)

First up are the Grade 2 bats, of which we have two.  The one on the left has 17 grains!  :)

We also have one in Pro grade and one in Grade 1, both here:

In addition to these NV bats, we have also received:

2 x harrow bats (1 x HellFire G1 and 1 x NV G1)
2 x Hattori G1 Bats
2 x HellFire G2 Bats
1 x HellFire Pro Bat
1 x Tempo G1 Bat
12 x full length padded bat covers

Also, we now have some more Tempo duffle bags and NV batting pads, rounding it off.

The last time I saw these bats, they were just part-mades in the workshop, so it's nice to see them looking so good as finished bats - well done, Matt!  :)

Happy to add photos of the other bats to this thread on request.  I am in the process of updating our website - by the end of the day, everything should be up.

Please PM with any queries!

Cheers,
Paul

It's been like that for a while, John - makes it more like an Aladdin's cave, though!  :)

Our shop lease expires at the end of the year, so we will be moving anyway.  Need more space, I agree!  :)

Shot but not uploaded yet, James.  Should be up by the end of the week.  It's not massive, to be honest, but fits all the basics...

So you finally move to a location I can get to in my lunch break after I leave the country! Not sure whether to be angry or glad tbh....

How much would the duffle be to Aus? I was looking at this earlier today as it happens....

Loving the look of the softs too....

Haven't moved yet, but you could always move back here when it's confirmed!  ;)

Duffle is £35 shipping to Aus, so it's more than the duffle itself!  :-[

Here are some photos of the Tempo G1 (3lb) - it doesn't have the 'Monster' sticker on it, but it may as well have!  :D

And here is the bat cover.

We have quite a few of these in stock and I'm quite impressed with them: full length, padded etc. £9.99 each...

I finally got to have a play with all these H4L bats today.  Some real guns here!  :)

My favourite is the NV G1 because it taps up unbelievably well, and is pressed just how I like it (very soft).  I would go as far as to say that it's one of the best bats we've ever had in stock, so I have taken some individual photos here...

More on looks.  H4L are one of very few brands I know of that often have softer pressed G2 bats than G1/Pro.  The consistency of their bats is right up their with the very best in my opinion.  I can't remember ever having to send a H4L bat back to Matt due to quality concerns, which is more than can be said for pretty much every other brand we stock...
