Title: How to get a Custom made now Vitas sports has closed
Post by: Long hop 1987 on January 02, 2018, 10:45:08 PM
I got a G1 custom from Hunts a few years ago through Vitas Sports.

I know that they have now unfortunately closed down has anyone else taken up that offer?

Would definitely be interested in another one.

Last time I checked the custom offer was available directly from Hunts. I can't see that changing. Vitas were able to offer it 10gbp cheaper though.

You can certainly still visit them for a custom made bat, one of our young lads went end of last week as he got one for Xmas

I've just had a lovely Caerulex at a decent price via Jonny at Talent Cricket, who have a relationship with Hunts. Worth giving him a nudge.

If you fancy a change from Hunts County, then I can arrange for you to visit Chase Cricket. It’s £30 above our standard prices, but you will spend a few hours chatting Cricket, choosing a cleft, and getting the bat made.

Dan is a top bloke and certainly knows how to make a decent stick!

I got one from talent. Weight and shape was all wrong. Wasn't too impressed with the service. Wouldn't use again

Does anyone know what the prices are for a custom from Hunts ATM, in the various grades, and Serbian willow?

I'm aware of the concept of Serbian willow just wondering how the price differed  :)

It is a typo! Martin is as close to county as it is possible for a business to be.

I always think Hunts County ought to have someone on here. There is certainly a lot of interest in their product.

Perhaps they'd like to offer me a part-time job?

Free kit for your services would be a good deal

I probably wind up too many people on here to be a good ambassador for the brand.

Where’s the fun in not saying what you think?

I agree. Potential employers usually don't.

They’re not worth working for then

Lots of small bat makers about who I'm sure could make you something to your specs. I popped into Stac yesterday and might have picked up something a bit unique
