small mens?

also take a look at the gn 100, that must have light pick up for sure

[Manormanic]

i have picked one of these up and dont like the slimmer handle, they are primarily made for women are they not, right up my street then !

they are, but you could easily get one custom made with a mans handle - and if you do so through a retailer (Owzat have done this for me in teh past) you'll still get a substantial reduction on RRP.

Use my middling bat!

Would it be worth contacting the place you got your plain softs and plain bat before and see if they could do you an ultra light bat?

[tim2000s]

agree to a certain extent, but i dont want a high middled bat, which is when it then boils down to actual weight..

I've a pretty nice 2lb6oz Slazenger Pure Blade Ultimate that came from the Sports Direct sale. A lot of wood for the weight and Fattus found it worked pretty well. May be worth looking at that!

Sam. We can custom make anything you want. Perhaps something like an Uzi with a lower middle. 2lb 6 is not a problem. Email me if you would like me to sort you out with something.

That sounds good, there are a few around my way, within a days cycling distance, probably after xmas sometime when i am at home i'll go on a few trips to a few of them such as yourself and bulldog. Will have a nice wad of money to spend on multiple bats including the light one, so will see where i can spend my money best!

You are always free to come and visit anytime Sam and look at what we have in stock. Or if there was some interest from the guys from the Bristol area I would be happy to bring some bats up for you to look at.

[Bulldog Cricket]

Sam, This might be of interest?
Not sure if you are looking to buy or make though

Peps, The GN XXX Series 6 that I got is the way to go. Massive bat with very good middle and its 2lb7oz with stickers, grips, antiscuff.

I had a lovely Newbery Thurxton SPS in 2lb6.5oz, but its gone now. Had a lot of wood for a light bat and went really well. But it was from a pro, so possibly explains the above

Spamuel - talk to Tim about that Slaz - it's dreamy, with nice grains, big ole profile and nice grains. It goes like a slapper in a pub full of bankers too!
