It's coming to Malta for some slogging fun and will stay there too.

Behold the birth of the Maltese Falcon!

I am trying to fight the urge to order a grade 1 bat... everytime i think of it i want to go for it

I have personally congratulated Charlie on a very good looking bat marketed well by a young lad on a small budget.

Just sometimes wish people who have links with the brand/bats would be upfront.

Am i the only one thinking that coming from someone who is roughly the same age this sounds incredibly patronising?

Nah

You're reading too much into my posts again. I'm applauding him as I was in a similar position with Itias and never got it to work whereas at first appearance it would seem Charlie had.

The more I look at these jokers the more I think I want one! Currently moving house so it will have to wait till later in the season, but this will give give me even longer to keep Reading the reviews and seeing how well they play. But innitial comments sound very good

Didn't Charlie say he would change this when was told a few months ago this was untrue?

A direct quote from the Black Cat website: 'Black Cat Cricket is one of the only, if not the only, batmakers in the world that owns its own source of willow.'

We put this in as we were told about Kippax apparently owning their own willow. I emailed them to ask, and received no reply.

My understanding is GN plant a lot, but don't own (m)any trees. They planted ours, and all the neighbours. Lots of people think GN own the willow on their land, until they look a little closer. I don't think Newbery do, don't know about Warsop. I'm happy with the statement on the website.

GN have contracted farmers, Newbery likewise, Warsop have 15/20 tree's planted next to their workshop that should be ready in a few years but are more likely to stay as a talking point. I do not own any willow, just buy it like the others, Kippax is planting but 15/20 years away from felling that willow.
