Number 14 is becoming a more popular decision it seems. Certainly whets my appetite as I'm starting to use my brain and realise that I've never batted with anything over 2'11 so why am I even considering the TKC and Mullinator!
Because bigger is obviously better..... 😄

There aren't many people who use heavy bats on here, it'll be interesting to see how many end up for resale after people go for the big profiles thinking they can manage the weight

Could be bargains galore for me and @JB

Or we will just struggle to move ours on even more in a see off heavy bats and no one to use them.

This is why I'm going down next Saturday to try all the shapes and find a one that suites me, I've thought about blind buying but I'm scared of getting something too heavy

Well I don't want to see all the good willow go before I pick my shape haha

My brother is off to Aus for a year so seeing him off at the airport at Manchester later in the day as well. I might change my mind if you find out your bat will be ready before the end of January.

Went along to B3 this morning. I'd had a few emails with David before hand the intention was to pick up a one stripe DB1 shape.

I ended up trying numerous bats in the showroom, but kept going back to a custom 'no14' bat. Its a slightly lower middle than i was intending, but the pick up and response all over was too good to resist.





Its a 2 stripe, and the final weight with 1 & 1/2 grips is 2.10lbs. Overall very happy with the service and quality offered.


@geeders , wondering if you are going to do a review of this :) I am interested in getting no#14 as well. 
thanks.

Agreed. I could never handle a 2lb12oz or heavier. 2lb10oz is my comfortable weight and 2lb11oz is pushing that a little far ....

the bats posted on here so far look very good indeed in terms of both willow quality and the shape / profile of the bats

have this morning ordered a Series DB1 shape , two stripe, 2lb 15oz.
