They buy blank bats from RNS Larsons and sticker them up, but at least they sell English Willow as English Willow.

Few teammates had RNS bats.. Not the greatest but pretty decent for the price.. But Willostix price for RNS bat is way too overpriced..

I wouldnt be put off by the Larsons link, i have seen some fantastic larsons bats - but better off getting top of the range larsons than low grade willostix.

Agree with Silly.. Have seen some of the high end RNS bats be pretty decent and usually they are priced lower than BDM, BAS, SS and SG.. Usually the same price as KG and RS.. KG and RS also have pretty decent bats..

A team mate of mine had a willo stix bat, it didnt pick up very well and wasnt very good, it cracked up near the neck for some reason aswell, not recomended!

on the other hand, their soft goods are very comfy and light

the owner of willostix tours our club most years (past 3) and pretty much all 11 players use their bats. some of them went really well but a few of them sounded horrible in our last game!
