Ordered 2 x Blue Rooms after going down to see Rob. Must say, what a nice guy he is!! Had a look at lots of clefts and part made bats, went with the idea of getting 2 identical bats, however left with 2 that couldnt be further apart if they tried! Will update the thread with pics etc, when they arrive next week.
More to come

Great to hear You managed to get down there for your bats mate :)
I hope it all went well. Did he make you his famous cup of coffee? Haha
What did you end up with then, I know you wanted 2 identical customs at 2.9 so id be intrigued to know what made you change your mind?
-
Love that you went for 2 opposite bats, looking forward to seeing them.

Well i did want 2 twin bats, however after a long discussion and picking up 2 bits of willow that i couldnt put down i went with 2 opposites (cousins maybe). The first should go like stink, big edges etc but probably wont get more than a season from it (which is fine) and the other is very traditional shape but picks up the same as my first bat. Smaller edges, lots of meat in the bat should last a long time. Rob has created me two bats that even without using them yet have a place in my heart!
pics will get posted when i recieve the bats :D
-
Are you having them knocked in then?
-
yes
-
Same as with me then did you go for blue or pink then that's the question lol
-
wait and see!
-
Ooh you tease I bet you went for pink ha I just went with the blue and an autograph lol as blue and yellow are the club colours

Thats the one!! I couldn't find it, but was looking in wrong sections!
Cheers fella!
I will be adding lots of pics over the next week.
I took the photos on my old iphone which the LCD broke on. So it took a while to get it fixed but managed to download the pics and will be adding them soon!
Deepest apologies for taking this topic up guys!! :(

It's nice to hear the more traditional profile is being noticed aswell as the others. I'm
I prefer a more traditional shape and Rob does make some big bats in that shape.

Looking forward to some pics longy!

Tally so far is £00.00p mate. Was a favour more than anything but rob has said he is a fair guy and will sort me out so we will see what comes next time he rings after the current puma order is finished. And the bats shift themselves ;) I'm just here to help get the brand out there and for any questions or assistance people may need
