Lovely finish / profiles Ryan!

Problem is you'll have to find a bowling machine or some willing volunteers to bowl at you to give the forum a performance review.

I'm netting Wednesday so I'll give them a go, also got my butterfly net bat to try out, wonder how it will sound and perform with the hole drilled through the middle.

You've done a really nice job there!! From afar it just looks like a grain running down the side, or maybe a slight streak of heartwood. I know a guy at my club who has a laminate bat, an SF one that was apparently set aside for Dwayne Bravo (I thought they were illegal in International/FC cricket?), it's bloody massive, had 45mm edges when those weren't the in thing 4-5 years ago.

Really good looking bats. The profile on that first one is just perfect in my eyes.

nice finish, both looks good. Would be interesting to know about the performance. Pls give your honest opinion whether these lams performs better than normal ones.

I'm in the process of looking at loaning one or both out to admin/ senior members of the forum so hopefully get some fair and honest feedback.

Humm - I mentioned this to the Stig.

He is, apparently, going to be making his long awaited comeback to the forum in the not too distant future as a result of this... Doesn't look as if anyone else will be getting a go after all  ;)

I've used one of the lams last night and found it very tasty,  I'm hoping that the stig can confirm, bearing in mind he's not too rusty from being boxed up for so long.

All hail the stig. Some people say he has cricket balls for testicle's.

I think it's around 2'9 (although my digital scales are lacking in power) and edges are not massively big, which is fine with me!
But the spine is high and long. I suspect the middle may be extremely impressive!!
