Selecting your bat
« on: February 13, 2014, 02:08:55 PM »

Ok now I have been asked what my procedure is for selecting a cleft for someone so here is a bit about it I have tried to keep it brief so hope it all makes sense
Hope you like

Got to ask a serious question. Paul has interest increased since you started doing the informative videos?

Tough one isn't it when you have one copied. It's very popular but I always advise that the feel is copied as opposed to the exact shape for the simple reason every single cleft has its own different properties in the the way they feel and how they need to be shaped accordingly. I would personally go for something that has similar feel as opposed to looks. But it doesn't matter what bat you have nothing will ever feel exactly the same as the last one that's why we need to get to know it so to speak. Non of my old sponsored bats ever felt the same even though they were the same range and weight.

Yeah feels different but giving it a run out next week so will know what it's like properly as you can know how good or bad a bat is till you use it

So looking forward to a swing next week

No not particularly just as it was to be honest and just keep trying to let it grow naturally. Would be nice to get a lot busier but don't want to get where we can't handle it. We do lots of deals for people wanting multiple bats for them and mates so try and look after people as much as possible
