Cheers folks, will post up a video poor quality video of how it goes off both ball and mallet without knocking in... If i'm not mistaken, I think this is the 5th or 6th Woodstock I've owned (hopefully without selling it this time!!) and cannot fault the quality of any of the ranges irrespective of whether its made from raw form or part made.

Superb quality and for me, the minimalist stickers in a burgundy/reddy brown are just something else and just adds to how good it looks. Typically, we all look for nice clean sapwood with X amount of grains but for me the little strip of heartwood on the inside edge (for me as a lefty) just gives it a little bit of character and each of the grains are nice and prominent. Very happy individual right here  :D :D

Lovely bat. Nice profile and great grains. I have owned a Woodstock in past and it was very good.

Would you by any chance have picture of top of handle?

As has been said already, lovely looking willow with a great profile, should surely play well, I haven't seen too many good looking planks tbh.

*UPDATE*

a very average ball test, one of which the ball went out of shot so decided to flip the camera to get more of the response distance in. Apologies for the poor quality of the shot but did it quickly before I head out.





Also, a little note is the handle, didn't know what was requested but hey ho! heres a couple of photos of the top of the handle and shoulders for the markings etc. A side note is that I asked for the handle to be shorter so it seems that the knob is slightly cut down but also the handle itself... What a poor explanation !!!  :-[





Hope this helps somewhat  :)
