For me this is close between Matt and Marcus. I've had some immense bats off both of them, toss a coin between H4L & Affinity! You really can't go wrong

Because there not a sponsor.

I have had a custom gn made from a legend cleft which was very good indeed and four or five affinity bats all was very good but none seem on par with my new h4l custom both of mine are guns and really look forward to the weekend to go out and use them  :)

If you're not able to visit any of the aforementioned brands:

If selecting H4L or GN why not speak to Jake or Asad or VKS and sort out a lovely off-the-shelf bat to your spec, without paying the premium for a custom. As an aside, a guy in my work team had a LH Supernova 4 star ordered for him by Elmer Cotton in Oxford. It has a few blemishes, but it is a lovely stick, great shape, more than suitable for us earnest clubbies. (Also, 'custom' GNs are stock shapes made in UK - don't know about Aus.)

I think Affinity had some pre-made bats for sale at really competitive prices.

You can visit H4l by appointment, but with no problem. GN you can visit, but it costs the best part of £1000. Affinity from my experience is very reluctant to receive visitors, though maybe that was just me. All are good bats. Of the bats I have that are custom made, the performance would rate as follows:
1. Aldred
2. Charlie French
3. Bradbury
4. B3
5. H4L
6. Affinity (pick ups and balance the weakness, ping very good.
7. Robert Pack
8. Laver & Wood
9. Woodstock
Off the rack bats are another list for another thread.
