Bats - happy with my B&S elite pro and also picked up a stunning NB DC580 that scored me 120 & 60 in my last 2 games plus my Slaz V800 bat is tapping up really well.
I will add something from GM the 2017 range though as personally think it looks the mutts nuts

Softs I have softs for every bat I own and happy with all NB,BS and Slaz softs plus bags

Spikes will last another year or so

Lid - using an old Masuri which probably should be replaced but just feels perfect, I do have an Ayrtk I net with and use for T20 which will probably become match lid as I just don't like the new Masuri lids

When I read this in a few months I will have most likely sold this lot and bought something totally different lol

True to prediction lol

I still have all above plus 2 full sets of kit including 4 bats and softs for both brands whose bats I. Purchased

Still sorting out the gear for next year ... Aldred & B3 bats plus some Kookaburra softs would be my final setup.

I assume this is the 2017 kit thread, so here's where I'm at this year. My RPC has pretty much died now, but it'll always be there because I scored my first ton with it... The H4L is the new kid on the block.
Instead of an expensive bag I've ended up with a Craghopers 90L duffle that I've used for expedition work- it fits perfectly! I'm impressed with the new Masuri, very nice bit of kit.

- Refurbishment of my Ayrtek helmet (which I have been intending to send off for last 2 winters !!)
- Titanium grill for above helmet

- 30+ hours on the bowling machine
I've always been someone intent on not getting out rather than scoring runs but I've now played a couple of seasons in the Wetherby League, I'm going to change my mindset. There's 20 odd games in the season and if I can play just 5 match winning innings, that's a damn sight better than just blocking out and letting my batting average creep up (I averaged 25.00 last season). There's going to be frustration and some failures along the way but I'll just need to keep batting positively and hopefully many pre-season hours of the ball pinging off my bat will give my that confidence.

I hate to think how many new bats I have got for the new season with a bit of time on my hands will take some pictures soon and put them up

In - a really impressive B-Oz Blankbat that's nigh on perfect after a few nets, RS Sports (Robinsons) plain white gloves that are serious value for the quality & plain white pads from eBay that have attracted admirers already

Out - all the bats & kit I didn't use (on wife's orders)

Tempted still by... More plain white softs SF & RS Sports look stunning or possibly unbranded from Online Stockist and a possibly a bat from a good mate who's just starting making them

A new club... :(


No decision made on if I stay put or move still.
The longer I think about it the more I'm tempted to stay where I am, just because I know everyone...

Still toying with the idea of a new lid and possibly some spikes, but neither are a necessity


New lid not yet, but maybe at the end of the month.
New spikes have been purchased
