Hi guys been reading this for a while thought I'd make an account and get some of your opinions on a couple of bats for this season.
I'm after a couple of bats one I'm going to get from a certain East Sussex baT maKer as you lot say, the other I was thinking of visiting h4l as their bats look really good to me but not sure of what to get yet any ideas?

@Bwcc Welcome to the forum.

Would advise going to the shops / farms themselves.

Have not been to either but heard that Matt is very friendly. Just picked up a massive bat, couldn't be happier.

Would like to pop over to Warsop one time to have a look at their stock.

Welcome to the forum

@hell4leather cricket place is definitely worth the day out, Matt is a very welcoming fella and his bats are of a very high quality. Plenty of stock in by the looks of recent social media posts, if they don't suit your requirements then you can talk custom

What are your requirements for a bat? One of our retailer sponsors will also be able to help you out

@Churchy1989 which bat did you get from Matt out of interest?
@iand123 h4l is sounding better and better tbh. I'm looking at a kohli/ root profile probably made by Tim and then at h4l I was thinking of something about bigger. However as I feared when I started looking at the forum I now really like the look of the warner and the lynn profiles at present

@Bwcc tis the issue with this forum, you'll want one of everything! From your bat makers choice I'm assuming you are based near Sussex and Kent? If so where about?

[Bwcc]

@iand123 not far from Eastbourne probably about 10 miles from tims workshop

I've had quite a couple of nice bats made by Tim one of them has some strange markings on the handle it says "pro" not sure what it means

@Bwcc I have a few, but this Monster is the latest addition, comparing it to my old Tempo I have.

@iand123 not too far from Matt then

You'll soon realise genuine pro bats have the name of the pro intended written on the toe in sharpie

@Churchy1989 how big are the edges on that monster 

[Bwcc]

@iand123 it was one made for a Kent player I believe and looking at it and the way it pings I believe it

[Churchy1989]

@Bwcc  about 48mm, spine about 70mm have not measured yet, its not too heavy either.

@Churchy1989 what does it pick up like? If these monsters pick up well then that's probably my mind made up
