Well, may be this argument is not for the faint hearted so you can excuse yourself. hehehe

The reason behind this argument (and many of my arguments ) is to wake this dying forum up !!!.

There are hardly more posts here. No discussion, no ideas, no nothing.

Once in a while someone tries to show off his crappy bat by uploading some grainy pixilated photos, and rest of the clan starts saying ... "wow,, wow,, wow... what a bat, what bat, what a beauty yada yada yada".... and that's about it.

WE MUST DISAGREE WITH WHAT WE FEEL LIKE IN ORDER TO KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING - otherwise you are more than welcome to keep browning your nose!


What do you actually add to the forum other than being a dick we all have our idea what the best bit of willow is but doesn't mean we are right or wrong so my question to you is what do you add other than talk a lot do sh*t

You can even post clear photos instead of pixelated ones if you wish...

Butterfly willow

I have been keen on trying the butterfly willow bats but buying from UK seemed like an expensive option. Then i saw TON Reserve edition in butter fly willow and thought to check with batmakers in India.
Finally ordered 2 bats from RS (one for me and one may sell locally to someone)and i am impressed by the quality of the bats and initial ping of the bat from the butterfly section is nice. Still have knock and get it ready but seems like a good buy.


Bats are 2-9 and 2-10 and 40 mm plus edges and duckbill profile to keep the weight down as butterfly willow seems to be on the heavier side. From grading perspective i can say grade 1 butterfly willow as they have nice grains.

Here are the pics
















The first of the two is lovely looking, how does the butterfly close to the middle effect the feel @i12breakfree ?

No, you are totally wrong. Absolutely dead wrong!! Or perhaps you are knowingly shooting from the hip to defend butterfly marks because you think you know more cricket.

Hahahhhaa, I am implying the exact opposite of what you are inferring from my post.

Such passion, such psychotic rant! Tut tut. Kanye was ok after he checked himself in a mental institution. Now, I am not saying you should do that, in fact don't even think about it. But for your sake, stay away from sharp objects, cars, guns, and building roofs.

It's not worth fueling the fire. People without respect deserve a cold shoulder. You can disagree with someone and have debate without causing deliberate offence.

Jeebus... this thread. The actual bats look lovely, particularly the shape of the second one! My personal experience with butterfly willow is 100% positive, had two superb bats from on here with lovely pingy stains, so no doubt they'll go well.

My 2 Aldred butterfly grade bats are going very well. The only thing different from a standard all sap wood bat is that Butterfly bats sounds different.

B... but... You said...?

Am I high?

Yeah, I said those butterfly marks under perform ,,,,,, that doesn't mean I oppose the purchase at the price.   :D  :D  :D
So what if they look ugly? Haven't you heard the term, "cover the face and hit the base"?
