Title: New warbird
Post by: simonmay5 on October 26, 2015, 02:49:53 PM
Would like to say thanks to Matt for letting me visit today and for the new warbird which for a grade two pings so well it's like it's on steroids.matt got a great setup and you can see how much he loves what he does he very passionate about his bats and that shows in every one of his bats can't wait to get one of the new custom range when the stickers come in saw the bat case today and if that and the pads and gloves are any thing to go by they are going to be very special bats indeed

Woweee, that looks lovely! I'm absolutely in love with that profile.  :-[

The last H4L i bought off you is still going strong, so if you want to offload this at any point you've already got a buyer ;)

I am just itching to get one of these now, going to hold off till Xmas and get a custom though I think. What are the bat cases like? Different to the old Velcro top padded ones? Cause they are excellent mines still first choice when I have a new stick that needs protecting. Keep us updated on how she goes please!

***NERD ALERT***

Every time I read topics about these bats I expect to see something like this:

Haha, the picture they use on its just crickets website for the warbird kind of looks like it's being beamed up as well.

Cheers jake, looks incredibly smart. Very nice touch to give them out with the bats, that's the kind of service you hope for with a premium product.

Wouldn't normally look at that, with those grains
Just shows how looks count for nothing, because if you've picked that up its gonna be a right goer!
And the size of it for 2.8? Huge

Matts turning out some world class products

After taping it up mate it's as good as that shadow if not better and it's not even played in yet shows how good it's been pressed makes that lovely crack sound of the mallet

Damn, I keep seeing gorgeous bats on here which I'm able to ignore because they're all too heavy for me but 2-8!!?? I want one! Unlike some people here I find it hard enough justifying having 2 bats, let alone 3  :(

Loving the warbird shape, more and more impressed with H4L gear every time I see it.

Looks like a great bat for the grade and like always from Matt I have no doubts it's a cracker. May sound weird but I do tend to find the bats that are quite white in colour with widish but straight grain seem to play very well and can really last the test of time.
Looks like your collection is growing again Simon (by the way so is mine after a promise to be good)
