my new monster!!
« on: November 07, 2010, 07:28:59 PM »

hi all, thought i'd do a quick review on my new bat. Firstly i'll start with the customer service from h4l which i can not fault in the slightest Matt kept in constant contact about my new weapon. and also a very quick turn around!
my specs were:

2'9-2'10 finshed
mid-middle
nice straight grains with heartwood
oval handle
decent size edge
with a light pick up
excel stickers and two white grips

about 7 or 8 days later this is what i got. think most people will agree it looks very nice, pick up and feel are also fantastic. but the thing that's most impressive is the response of it safe to say the best i've had and it still needs knocking in!!! sorry about pics :D
once again thanks matt!!!

I have an H4L Excel 5 star here at 2lb 8oz and I have to admit that it is a lovely bat indeed!

Not as many, but must be pushing the 20 mark. Just stocking up for a pre-season eBay/Forum sale.
