« Reply #15 on: January 30, 2016, 12:00:51 PM »

I currently have 1 bat 1 pair of pads and a set of remfry and a helmet and 1 pair of
Gloves and 1 bag a pair of NB rubbers

I can't let this one go without playing at it. How can this be true Dave? We've seen pics of bags, bats etc? Lol

Glad I'm not the only one! However I'm sure by the end of the season I'll have more :/

In my car sorry what's in my car at work.

In my house that's another issue

Never had new balance pads my mum got me a pair of there gloves last season they went in two weeks Ss softs went mid season.

In my house I have a "few" bats haha but only b3 pads and a set of gloves

Lids I think I have 5 knocking around.

mega clear out soon I think.
 :D
got some dashing coloured pads as you know...

Was being flippant really.

I have cut down in the last 3 years massively I know before I got involved with b3 I went through 40 bats once in a year

Dave, if you've got a well used bargain priced b3 under 2-10 give us a shout when you have a clear out 👍

I put out a vote to ban this member for lack of commitment to bat buying! ;)

Match bat, net bat, other shiny new bat, playing in the garden bat and a load of old bats.

Old bats don't count - they have to be notionally playable.  ;)

I've got 4 bats (although it's looking like my GM will end up being used for everything) and one of everything else.

Spartan MC4000 from Vitas and my B3 Custom. Only used the Spartan for two short nets but naturally the B3 will be the match bat.

No more required.

Quite a few.  :D

I am very careful when buying bats and I don't sell them. Each one has its own personality and I use them depending on my mood. Sometimes, I want to knock around and have fun with a very light bat and sometimes I just want to feel the punch hence heavier bats. Important thing is that I don't waste my weekend over a missing/broken bat.

@d7bow Have a look in the for sale section at the Billy Goodleman mate Dave had for sale mate - if he's still got it I've seen it in the flesh and looks decent

Hmm

Only ever had one bat at a time too, until I started perving at bats on here

Got my two affinitys, my Toro and a spectre
But will be using h4l this year after spending a day down at matts workshop marvelling at his creations
I've got three bats currently being made, with three more for team mates,(that will increase)
I'm gonna be using h4l gloves and pads too, but toying with the idea of some really light pads

Ok ok! In my defence I was a student until recently and lack of work has hindered the prospects... Also you didn't answer my question buzz ;)
