All comments welcome, just be gentle :)

Looking good there mate. Nice organised technique :)
-
You look good, but next time get the bowling machine set up to try and hit the top of off or just over it so you don't just get to sit on your front foot. Seemed like you were timing it ok
-
looking good mate lovely flick of middle peg to leg! need to learn that one lol
-
you look a good player paddy,time the ball nicely- or maybe it's a gun of a bat! Looking good kitted out in ss, very asian lol
My only point would be that your bat face is quite closed, whether that is due to gripping the bat too hard with bottom hand, or perhaps you need to adjust your grip so that the face is a tad more open?
Like the flamingo flick of the leg when you try and whip it behind square!
-
Cheers lads. Yeah Golders, the video was about a month ago and I was struggling then with not holding the bat tight enough and my back shoulder squaring up which meant that balls that i was playing a forward defennsive too that were meant to go back towards the bowler were going slightly more towards mid-on. Sorted now though :)
-
yo paddy what pace do you have it on?
-
Your bat comes through very straight, and you have quick bat speed too. Nice clean hitting too when you don't hit it too hard.
-

Nothing special mate, 70ish with +1 inswing.
-
Paddy, dont try to hit it too hard, you end up losing your shape, instead concentrate on middling it.
showing the bowler the makers name quite a bit, i like it
-
I guess he might have been hitting it hard as he was 'slogging'...still some very impressive shots in amongst those mate!! :D

do you all have broken machines i have not seen 70 mph yet on any of the videos shown
-
Possibly because not many face much quicker than 70?
Waste of time going higher if you don't see it?
-
stubbzy - is that just astroturf your batting on ?
-
Looks a nice true surface to bat,does that have a roof as well i can see????
-
all i saying is as a frequent user of a bola bowling machine i have not seen flight and dip on some of those so called 70 mph
maybe i getting old and grumpy at least people are using the forum as well as it being just a bring and buy
-
I rarely use bowling machines but never seen dip at 70mph just look at yardys bowling but hey that's just me
-
they were definatly set on 70 mph. it is just an astroturf mate and there is a roof on the cage as well. multifunctional, tennis court, netball, football, cricket
-

Whats the point in going higher if bowling machines are to groove your technique?
-
Sorry it's not my point at all
And i'am sure level 3 coaches say use between 60-65 for shot grooving.
Look not bad mate maybe a closed face and rotating shoulders bought around by a back leg problem....
what standard you playing Paddy your at West Brom ain't you
-
Cheers for clearing that up stubbzy,all i know is when i use the bowling machine(x2 a season) its normally to face bowling i struggle with.I have it short or back of a length swinging away and thats my weakness.
-
Ok mate no probs. Yeah mate have been working on that and have it sorted now. Was there last year but going to aston manor this year to bat at 3 in the ones.

The way you flick your back leg up when you flick the ball of your pads, reminds me of David Hussey
