ProCricketer1982's Supreme.

Nice bat, but a bit large for my weedy arms to wield for too long.

hi guys been a busy few weeks here. heres some lovely bats off out 2 to Guernsey 1 locally. the supremes the left one is a couple of years old and the other is not an exact copy but a copy of its feel and pick up but in a butterfly 1 cleft and its an absolute beauty and I have a feeling its better to the original and the gold sovereign is a butterfly 1 that is off to a local guy and it is a very nice bat indeed.

Liking those butterfly's more and more.
After watching you shape my supreme, I have a new found respect for the bats you create. Many thanks
Think I've managed to upset most of Oxfordshire knocking it in tho!

Some of those butterfly clefts look like they've been in a tanning booth!

Something of the Dickinson about them.

Look great.

I can hear the bats already chatting among each other (which they all do when the lights are out, you've seen Toy Story, it's all true you know)....'I have not had my labels whitened!'.....How very Richard Hammond.

Hi Paul
Will the cleaned up bat need any re-knocking in or will it be good to go?
Can't wait to receive my parcel!

Ordered one of these for my Bro for his Birthday, as he's just taken up cricket again after a 4-5 year gap, haven't seen the bat myself but his message this morning say only

Yep, for a meaty bat it had an awesome pick up, just need to find some time to knock it in now!

will try and grap some picturesd for a review unless Paul has taken some already.

Two lovely butterfly bats off out. 1 gold sovereign butterfly1 off to a local player and a velocity butterfly super short handle. Both lovely pieces of wood always love a super short handle for some reason

Not being over tall I've always had a sneaking fancy for a super short handle - does it affect the pick up at all Paul?

how about a long blade super short handle bat? would that make the bat full size? I am guessing supershort handles are preferred by shorter players.
