That is MASSIVE!!! I think I might be going down with an 'injury' if I saw that come in whilst I was bowling!

What size do the edges come in at and out of intrest, how much does a whole tree with a grip cost?

I shall take some measurements tonight for those who like that sort of info! As I'm in Aussie land this was 233 notes GBP - don't have to pay Vat.

Haha - whole tree with a grip I like it!

Yeah I think so. The amount you save with vat pretty much covers the price for postage

I'm in NZ, the bat you have is pretty much what I would go for, I have a H4L Hellfire labeled up as a Tempo which feels fantastic but would like something a little bigger.

Comparing you  two bats the H4L looks a little more bottom heavy, the pick up would be my only real concern.

They pick up very well because of the high spine, Mine does not feel bottom heavy at all.

It more than covers it, Brad!  :) I checked the invoice again.  You saved £46.66 on VAT and shipping was £35, so overall you still saved £11.66.

Anyone from outside of the EU can benefit from the same savings when they buy top end bats from us!  :)

As for the pick-up, I agree, it's nicely balanced.  Maybe not quite as light as the HellFire, but definitely lighter than the Hattori for me...

Paul, what weight was the HellFire that you are comparing it to.

Yes I was surprised at how well it picks up. Of course I haven't had a net with it yet or anything but am pretty confident of it being fine - id say the ones coming it at 2'10 would be much like a regular bat.

Ah thanks for that Paul - yep definately worth it which is why I'll continue to buy top bats from you! I still haven't had a good run with the newbery - unfortunately with this in the kit bag now it will have to sit on the sidelines.

The 2.10 HellFire Grade 1 that we still have in stock (video review due up shortly) feels about an ounce and a half lighter than it is for me.  The Tempo felt about half an ounce lighter than it is to me.  All very personal though, this.  Not everyone agrees with me...

Jenko, any chance of some measurements so I can get a real feel of the size and distribution of this.

PS condolences on the cricket, if you need any advice on how tp cope let me know although I can't offer too much on how to deal with the hero to zero you guys have got going at the moment but for consistent crappiness I've got plenty :)
