Nothing special fella - A little Nikon Coolpix 16 - 6mp and compact!
Maybe when I have some spare cash, I'll buy a bat better camera - a higher quality one!

the pictures from that camera look fair decent if im honest

BAT 31 - Vantage LE

Not sure exactly which model this is but it's a meaty bat, weighing in at a chunky 2'13 and lots of willow.
The 8/9 grains look good and the initial performance is impressive!
This is a bat I may well use in the nets as a quality practice bat, with a fair pickup for the weight.
I used to have a couple more of these Vantage bats but they went to team mates who wanted a decent heavy bat - and they are going well for them. This is proof of yet another quality custom batmaker on this forum.

Pic to follow..............

Looks a top bat Pete, seem to be decent bats at a good price from Vantage.

[petehosk]

Thanks Richard....Dan makes a decent bat!!
Out of the 4 I have had, all of them have been great.
Will be able to review a little better when I book several nets over Winter!

[petehosk]

All good things come to those who wait....have 3 of the Salix variety. 

[longy0710]

any up for grabs at some stage or are they keepers??  (common question for you i am aware of that lol)

[petehosk]

Well.....you never know.
The Salix bats are used but great! Used one as my second match bats last season! 

[longy0710]

What salix bats do you own pete?  I could be very slightly interested.....

[petehosk]

Have an older Praestantia, a newer Praestantia Performance and a Fera Performance

[longy0710]

Nice, fancy a praesanthia, i wait for the review, unless you can pm me some specs/pics across?

[petehosk]

Well, I do have another 60 odd bats to get through...and I have promised to do AlRidd's ex-Slazenger next.
But I will line the Salix up for after. Should be able to do the Salix either this evening or tomorrow.
