Long Blade Bats
« on: May 01, 2016, 08:45:25 PM »

I borrowed a club mates long bladed bat yesterday and was amazed at the difference it made. I'm 6'3 and a bit and had never really heard of the idea of a long blade whilst at the same time being told to avoid long handle bats for how they picked up... Sadly this came a few days after buying a SH Bulldog Twitter Special so I was feeling a bit miffed.

Exam procrastination and student loan have persuaded me that the Bulldog can take up wet weather duties and that I simply need a long blade bat in my stable.

What do forum sponsors/members selling have to offer in terms of a Long Blade, around the £180 mark, preferably with a mid to low middle?

First post after being a long time lurker so here's to beginners luck!

Thanks

Have sold 10 long blades so far this season I have a Fireflight currently in stock we far prefer the long blade  option as opposed to long handle

I saw that one yesterday with a £3 first bid, a few people clearly very keen if it's shot up that amount so I imagine it'll go for double that or more... Thanks though!

Also not a huge fan of the shape, doesn't particularly do it for me
