There is a bow, but its pretty subtle.

That's an interesting development!  ;)

That middle bat is ridiculous!! My type of bat and my type of weight, well done that man ;)

The Custom that i've already got is ridiculous to be honest, its around 45mm edges & 65mm spine with no concaving at all. The middle on it is lovely

I've got a 3lb Hellfire Monster with a convex profile and it's a beast so I can imagine your 2 are similarly pingalicious haha

Wicked that !!!
Howz the pick up on that one northernboy?? From my experience- full profiled bats even with a mid swell feel a tad bottom heavy. I had a full SS ton Gladiator & a SF Optimus - pinged very well but an avg pick up I'd say

Isn't that just a handled cleft that's been sanded?  ;)

It's hard to say I mean it's obviously pretty heavy but it is fairly well balanced. It's the ping on it that's the most impressive (I guess it should be for it's size!) the whole bat pings like crazy, from toe to stickers.

Sure does man. Like someone commented in that thread that Matt must have only sanded the cleft [emoji16][emoji23]

Just a reminder amongst the hysteria on the forum that we still have the full range of h4l bats in stock, we are also nearly into double figures in terms of top of the line Customs for our customers both on and off the forum.

Anyone looking to arrange a Custom through us is not only welcome to the fantastic price of £375 with free delivery and a free padded leather bat cover. But I'll knock it in for free too.

This is an ongoing offer for 2016

True Jake you know good wood in your hands... Running your fingers along its spine feeling the swell under your soft touch, caressing it's thick edges, feeling it harden with every thrust of the Lignum vitae, slowly rubbing oil into its soft fibres making it moist and supple...

Oh ummm yeah mate we know you pick a good bat  :( :o :( :) ;) :D
