From an ugly duckling to a sexy Ayrtek custom.....
« on: December 23, 2019, 08:36:21 PM »
At the start of Last year I bought a GM Autograph, a bat exclusive to ProDirect, I asked for a medium weight and what turned up was a 2.13 very bottom heavy bat with a horrible pick up, I toiled with it all season scored some runs but struggled as I just wasn't happy with it and couldn't really afford to replace it. Anyway, I was chatting to Tom @Ayrtek Cricket and I mentioned this bat and he kindly offered for a reasonable price to reshape the bat, I have received the bat back now and I'm absolutely over the moon with it, the pick up featherlite! taps up great still and the Black Ayrtek stickers are very, very smart.

Behold...

It's a dead weight of just under 2.10 according to my scales, but it picks up much lighter. Gave it a good old waft around the garage yesterday.

Don’t think I took any before pics I’m afraid, was a big old lump tho which always helps when trying to whittle it down a bit.

@Wozaboxa purchased quite a few items from the range so I did it as part of a bundle deal, usually it would be £50 inc return delivery for the service inc a set of the black and chrome stickers 👍

Yep, they'll be a few reviews going up soon, my nipper is now fully decked out in Ayrtek kit! All top quality stuff, waiting on a couple of items but will throw up the reviews when it's all arrived.
