Ok as promised the first of some butterfly bats handled and pressed and I am seriously impressed with the feel of them unbelievable to be honest.


If you like the looks of any let me know.

If I were in the market for another new bat (:(:( I have more than I can use...) this is what I would be buying, in fact the one on the right to be precise, or maybe the one in the middle!!

Are they priced the same as the normal bats? Love a bat with character, and its like they say, ugly girls are good in bed.

You seem to be trying to stop yourself smiling on the vid! Like everyone else I think the middle one looks good.

I'm always smiling when I'm making bats especially when they feel like that

3-4 gone chaps sorry but don't worry because having been handling a few up I reckon there will be a load of light ones so 'Don't panic'!

Can't wait to see the finished items... Given the apparent impending shortage of multi-grained willow (sounds like a breakfast cereal), think the utilisation of butterfly willow, especially at these prices and as well crafted and finished as Paul's clearly are, think they will prove a popular addition to any batsman's / bat lover's armory.
