Anyone had any experience with Robert James bats? Who is he and does he make for any brands? Is he on the forum? He is based in Norfolk.

Crikey that would have been a few years ago. Been lucky enough to learn a from some master batmakers over the years so hopefully I've picked something up from them haha.

No worries, let. Me know if you are this way and I'll make sure I am about. Always a lot of bat's around to be picked up and wofted around 😂

Is it? I never knew. Great work!

I have been using one of yours for the past 2-3 years. Been an absolute rocket.

I've had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend 👍🏻

Ah nice. Good to hear its going well. Is it with the new or old branding? Would have been around the time I changed the branding that. If its old branding, let me. Know and I can sort a refurb out for you. 👍

Definitely the old branding. I think it was the Verso? Or something like that. Think I got it off someone on here. It's currently got some ugly fake Adidas ones on after it has had a couple of refurbs done myself.

PM me about a refurb, as would be good to get it done properly maybe.

Robert's bats are simply great.

[Bats_Entertainment]

I wonder which other brands he makes for? How many brands are there now?

[Bats_Entertainment]

He says he has a mentor is Huntingdon. I guess that connection could lead to him to work for brands commonly associated with outsourcing to that part of the world?

[Alvaro]

Well he's on the thread, I'm sure if you asked nicely he might answer. He did say any questions...
