I was looking at them, but as I have a 1999 Ford Fiesta I'm not blessed with boot space haha, happy with the one I've got and can just about fit 2 bags of that (sensible) size in my boot

Hahah right ok, I do like the look of all the island bags at the minute, not really thought about boot space yet haha just need a big bag as ive drawn the short straw to be the keeper for the rest of the season, meaning im going to need to escort all that round with me aswell...

I was impressed with the bat I received, I got a Gold, seemed quite hard pressed but does ping very well. For less than £150 I got a bat with 8 straight grains and no real blemishes. Just a shame it won't get used as much as it should haha

Aren't the bats pressed by the same batmaker as many others ? ???

I beleive  that they are.
Just to clarify, I wasn't saying that in a negative way, just an observation that no matter how hard I whacked it with the mallet, it wouldn't leave a dent. John did say over the phone he'd do some knocking in before sending, possible explanation behind what I found.

Their facebook page seems to be inundated with lavish praise for their gear. I had some positive experience from them and found them nice and helpful.

Having seen the woodstock gear over the last few years it seems very good quality from bats to bags, everyone seems happy with their softs at my club
