Hi all,
First time post. I must say I really enjoy this forum - great kit pictures and friendly advice. It's also nice to see other people balancing their kit addiction with marital harmony! Hopefully you can see pictures of my kit for the 2014 season attached. A brief description:
Bats (from left to right):
- G&M Purist - old match bat, terminally cracked - cut-down to become practice bat
- M&H Custom - Weighs 2'9 - result of a gift experience at the Taunton workshop. This is my next match-bat in waiting
- Uzi blank bat re-stickered as M&H - Weights 2'10 - new for 2014 - looking forward to knocking this in this year
- M&H Original High - Weighs 2'8 - new for 2014 - bought as a net bat but performance on the mallet suggests this could be the best of the lot! Knocking this in this year
- Fusion - Weighs 2'9 - my current match bat - I re-furbed over the winter. Have had 2 Fusion bats - both excellent
- Woodworm - Weighs 2'5 - old match bat, now my net bat
Other gear:
Pads - VKS test (seen many seasons!), Newbery Test (new for 2014), M&H Solution (match kit)
Gloves - M&H Harlequin (match kit), M&H Original (new for 2014)
Thigh - Aero P2 strippers
Shoes - Puma (match kit), Asics 200 N.O (new for 2014)
Helmets - Red C&D steel, Green Masuri steel, G&M Titanium blue, Slazenger Xlite Titanium blue (new for 2014)
(Lots of helmets as I've moved clubs a bit over the past years and each one has had a different colour! Will probably wear the Slaz this year)
That's it - appreciate any comments you may have! Hopefully I won't need any more kit this year and I'll spend sufficient time in the middle to use the bats!
