"Aldred left because the attitude of some on here was the final straw for him. Considering the time he had taken to write pieces and make videos for the benefit of this place, some people were just rude. He was never comfortable with certain other sponsors seemingly being afforded greater reign either."
If Paul actually took as much time to listen to his customers requirements them I am sure he would still be here, all too often the pick up over dead weight would come up as an issue, base line if someone asks for a 2.10' bat they don't want a 2.13/14' bat that in another persons opinion picks up 2.10 end of. But that said Paul's bats are well made and finished impeccably, so if you get the correct weight you will be happy.
