Nope bud i got shot of it via eBay ? i spent 12 hours or more knocking it in and then a few nets and decided not to waste any more time on it.

I was supposed to ring today and pay but i never had time so will do it tomorrow if i remember as I've meetings most of the day.

Pete sorry about my posts didn't mean to be negative on your topic !

i have happily used my platinum for two years, and though it did take an age to knock in, it is a very good bat, particularly pick-up wise. i have a low grip and being a lefty can be bottom-hand dominated, perhaps this has something to do with it. i don't play high enough standard or have enough disposable income to spend on bats, so i may have been willing it good too. however, i know in me bones that the bas blaster i had before it had a better middle and my new newbery gt is better finished, pressed and the sweetspot is already waking up and feels longer. i have hit big sixes with the 'sop though.
i found them polite at best when i went too, and tony was pretty grumpy. to sum up, i like my platinum, but i doubt i will buy another. i don't think they are very progressive either - still advertising 'as used by bopara stuff' on a VERY basic web page.

Rich - no worries about posting negative bits - thats what a forum is about fella!
I am not sure if the Venom will be great until I use it for longer than I used the first Venom I used.
But will confirm how i get on with it. And initial feel is very good though.

It doesnt feel like the Laver, Harlequin or Redback yet,, but am optimistic that the positive signs are there.
As i said....time will tell
