My new affinity phantom and hellfire
« on: January 16, 2014, 03:27:46 PM »

Today was the day I went to pick some more lovely bats from Paul

Bat one is the affinity phantom and all I can say is omg its a stunning bat. That picks up like a feather spec is 2.10 with 8 nice straight grains the bat is pressed very well and pings well  :)


Bat two is my first hell4leather its a grade two hell fire which has 9 grains and is 2.10 Paul had a few hell4 leather bats in stock and I think this one was the best performing bat and the best pickup

I would like to say a big thank you to Paul who helped me choose my new bats and was a gent he has some very nice bats in stock at the moment especially the lower end gray Nicolls bats the power spot is a real stunning bat who ever gets that bat they won't be disappointed  :)

Nice bats. I'm glad that Paul's affinity phantom has found a home and I can finally stop being tempted! I'd be really interested to knowing how the phantom performs... I still regret selling my Hades :(

I'd get those bats insured before someone on here decides to visit you in the middle of the night!!  :D
More beautiful bats though, Simon!
How on earth do you knock them all in??  ???

Two very nice looking bats
It will be interesting to see how that thicker top edge on the phantom affects performance

I needed it as thick as possible as that's the only bit off the bat I use lol .very impressed with the phantom as I am with all affinity bats they are real quality and Marcus is so passionate about his bats that shows in every bat ;-)

Ha ha ,yeah me too!

The carbine he did for my son is unreal, , I had a knock with it at Xmas , and really didn't want to hand it back!ha
I have a spectre, which, again is a lovely bat....can't wait for the season to start

I do like the phantom stickers, not convinced about the whole offset edge thing, but,every bit helps I suppose
And fair play to Marcus, he only wants the best for his kit

I am tempted with a toro tho,,,,,picks up like a dream!

The offset edge works very well mate and it makes the middle longer I had one on my hades your like the toro mate they go very well I used a carbine all season last year and it got better and better my new persona is a crazy bat and a true work off art

Yup

I tapped the carbine up,when I picked it up from Marcus, and the middle is huge,, if he's found a way with the offset edge to improve on that , then that's one hell of a bat
Almost an unfair advantage!ha

And his stuff looks sooooo good, which I know doesn't hit the ball any further, but , it all adds to the Affinity appeal

As you can tell,,I'm a big fan
