Title: Anyone know of any decent Size 5 bats?
Post by: FattusCattus on May 30, 2016, 01:20:05 PM: Does such a thing exist? I don't necessarily mean something handmade, due to cost - but are there more decent options out there than the sh*tty planks from Sports Direct?

The young man in question likes to give it a tonk, and I'd like the ball to actually go somewhere when he hits it!!!

@tommo256 , thanks I'll drop Gary an email

@InternalTraining - thanks, but the idea is to keep the cost down!

Post by: FattusCattus on July 11, 2016, 08:20:44 AM: I've let this one slip - who offered me a used B3 as his lad didn't use it any more, I think he was in the Surrey age-groups?

Sorry guys, my dementia is kicking in again!!

Post by: FattusCattus on July 15, 2016, 10:00:10 AM: Sorry men - just a bump on this again. Someone very kindly offered me a size 5 B3 bat, that his lad was using in Surrey Age Group and I have deleted the details like a fool!!!

@TangoWhiskey - it wasn't you was it?

I really need to sort out an inexpensive but decent size 5 bat for this lad!

Post by: tom line on July 15, 2016, 10:18:17 AM: @FattusCattus haven't mongoose got a lot of cheap bats in their website at the moment? A lot of them with quite big reductions might be worth a look

Post by: LDifa on July 15, 2016, 11:09:29 PM: Both my boys use bats from B3, Streaky was ace and we are the proud owners of a size 3 and 4, my only guess is a size 5 would go like stink!
