Nice read Chad and some lovely bats picked up, Rob is the one bat maker I wish I had taken the time to see and kit to use as always loved the RPC stickers, cant see the Blueroom ones do anything for me but the softs look well designed and very decen.
Finally I’ll believe you will stop collecting and buying bats when I see the worlds biggest ever same thread, now that will take a kettle worth of tea to read through and your inbox will go into meltdown lol
Thanks for taking the time to read, Chris. (And anyone else that has, I do appreciate it!) I was the same, I wasn't a huge fan of the Blueroom ones, but for some reason, one season when they changed the colourway slightly and had a white background, my eyes lit up, and have been in love with the look of the brand since. (I think when they introduced the white and blue storm stickers) The softs are indeed very well designed, as I said, the only thing I'd change is from Ambidextrous to regular RH and LH, but I understand the frustration of not ordering enough of a specific dexterity and too much of another. Hard to gauge! The bats are very very good, that extra press as I said made a big difference. The 2 I selected from 90% finished state I picked in particular for the blemishes -
@wilkie113 will agree that they absolutely flew in their unfinished state. Very crisp feel, especially in the RPC off the stain.
Yeah, I still haven't stopped yet, there are so many different makers in the world, but my issue lies in buying so many of the same maker, like a madman doing the exact same thing a multitude of times expecting a different result. (I get the different results, but are they enough to make a difference in the result on the pitch?)
