Title: Choice of bats
Post by: DotDotWicket on August 21, 2015, 02:06:40 PM: I really can't decide which bat to go for next.. At the moment I've got a Warsop Scimitar that weighs roughly 2lb 9 which is an absolute BEAST.

However as I really like that bat I want to try and preserve it somewhat and get a similar weight bat to use for non-league cricket/maybe in the nets.

At the moment I'm torn between 2 real choices as I don't want to spend loads and I like the smaller bat brands, so my choice has basically come down to:

B&S Assegei 3* or a H4L Demon.. anybody used either or both of these bats that has an opinion?

You can't really go wrong with either one of the bats ..

B&S are decent bats....H4L are absolutely superb! I have had a couple and both were guns!
But another option could be to take up a forum offer (such as Red Ink offer) and get a copy of your Warsop made?

To be fair, John did an amazing job of copying my 1271 last year.

Admittedly slightly smaller, did it in 2'10.

Doubt you'll be disappointed with either though in truth.
