Gary is always worth considering - his bats rate equal to ANY bats I have! And I have dozens of top notch bats!
I believe that Gary is in Australia on holiday at the moment though? so would probably not be easy to get hold for a couple of weeks?

Gary pre-made some bats before he left in various weights etc.  You can still email and findout, some one is picking up the emails. That said he might not have any left but it is worth emailing

I did check Redback. But I deiced to skip it for the moment as I already have 4 bat makers that I would like to contact and I guess the quality of the mentioned bat makers is at the same high level.

Redback should be your first choice in my opinion

Ok, I will contact them.
But first I need to figure out the ideal weight for me before going further.

What kind of build are you?
As you are an aggressive player I would say a middle weight bat with a low middle would suit you so that you can gain max bat speed?

I'm rather tall, almost 2 meters. So your description doesn't sound bad at all. But I have absolutely no idea about the weight of my current bat. I assume that if I order a bat it may take a month ( construction and shipping) so as long as I have it before May I'm quite happy.

Depending on how busy the batmaker is, he could have the bat done in about 5 hours. Then shipping to Belgium would be about two days.
