Trends are for sponsors to really put in the over time and keep it going with hype and of course good products.
Matt been doing it for a very long time both quality and his product often speak for themself which has lengthened his reign which is well deserved.
Anybody can make a good bat and i dare say 80-90 per cent on this forum are all made of the relevant quality.
But what sets out the good from the bad is how people respond to criticism and the contest that the customer is normally right and to keep evolving with the times and staying ahead of the curve and a gang of forum users all waxing lyrics...
The other thing is the sheep culture it funny at there are some highly influential people on this forum who actually would not know a good bat if it hit them in the face but are used as part of the selling circus.
Trends will come and go but good manors and good customer service will endure.
But i must add this this forum is fussy and i mean really fussy to the mega degree (why not as well) so if you think selling as a sponsor is easy it isn't .
Hand picking always makes me laugh really does all it guarantees you is a decent looking stick or better looking in most cases.
Every bat is a reject to somebody
