Here's the perfect example one of the original chase bats that I was sponsored with, playing on county tracks bouncy most people would look at this profile now days and say its ideal for low wickets, not true the middle on this bat was just the same as any other bat and its one of the best bats I ever had and I had some good ones. It's not the shape that's making it ping

I am so pleased to see a batmaker say this! It corroborates my view from a variety of testing.

As much as I love my laver, prices are extreme, I more than sure for that kind of money i can have a much more hands on custom bat, that does an equal if not better job  ;)

Another beauty off out to London tomorrow, a long blade velocity butterfly and it picks up beautifully especially for a long blade I think they can be tricky to get as good a pick up on them than a normal blade but this feels like a feather even at 2-11 and it goes very nicely

Now that is a really lovely cleft. It should have a nice, durable toe. :)

Here's a lovely butterfly super short handle pick up for 2-8 dead weight is 2-10, it pings like stink too. Looking around it appears a trend has started for butterfly clefts, I wonder where that started will have to find something else to start as they are becoming all too common  ;)

It just shows that if you price something right it'll sell like hot cakes. As always, I'm sure you 'could' have sole them for 200 instead but the chances are it wouldn't have sold anywhere near half as many.
