I was at Hunts today. I saw these of course and I do think the profile is a bit of a mismatch but I'm sure it will go very well.

Why not buy one of their pro bats? Only 50 quid extra.

Is that a huge dent under the shoulder of the blade in the 1st pic or its just the profile?

It's just the shaping of the shoulder.

I really like it. Traditional Hunts yet modern. It's on my bucket list.

I've got a bit of a thing for Hunt's County as they're what I think of as a "proper bat maker"

I really love the retro stickers on these and the funky shape, if I were to take the plunge and finally buy myself one it would be one of these or a Aura

Just for the record, i didnt buy it. I was very curious about the shape and thought i'd share it! it's slowly growing on me but i found it was very bottom heavy!

There's one in Morrant that picks up beautifully and has lovely grains. It's been there since the beginning of last season. Wrong stickers!
