Oh b.t.w... jpgavan does handle repairs and also does some of the handles on his featherblade x's and featherblades . So its not like he can't or wont do it. He is also the bat repairer at kingsgrove sports , so if youve bought a bat from there recently it was prepared and knocked in by him .
His suppliers seem pretty good re the partmades he gets from india . He told me that he has a new supplier for his oversize clefts ( maybe its for all his clefts now , not sure ). He said he is now getting his oversize clefts from England from a company that has a c.n.c machine . When i smiled as if i knew who it was he read my mind and said "no , it's not B3" ! In any case , looking at his instagram photos of some of his new clefts ,whoever it is , they look the goods . I might just have to get another featherblade soon .
Personally , i think he should make this type of thing better known ( ie him handling clefts , new english supplier etc ) as it might get him more respect/brownie points from the doubters out there .
