Very nice shape mate. I bet it flies as there is so much wood in that profile!

thanks mate. early signs from starting knocking in, its tapping up nicely. a lot of wood but light pick up. cant wait to get it tested out.

I also really like those stickers, goes well with the shape of the bat.

Nice looking bat. I don't mind the odd character giving blemish, and I'd sooner have fewer grains than a multitude of tight ones, but that's just me.

Thanks Tom. Think the back sticker needs to be slightly longer, but overall happy with the design. Has a modern but classic look which was what I was after.

True, depends what you are after. A bat to look at whilst you are in the changing room out because you didn't want to ruin her or a bat that will score you runs.

I'm currently using a salix pod performance, so not cosmetically perfect, 6-8 grains, but it goes beautifully.

Salix are top of the pile for standards. Really good bats. Got one myself and pings beautifully. Something I try and emulate into my own bats with the standard I set. Thats why Im not selling my bats until I am happy with what Im creating and have a solid making process.
