Rob pack or Tim Keeley??
« on: November 08, 2010, 11:19:35 AM »

Ok so I have a pretty hard decision to make in a day or two and was hoping someone may be able to reflect on Rob Packs bats or custom
Service as well as Tims bats if they've got either.
I have the option of a fantastic looking Tim Keeley Pro bat or a custom made by Robert. Both are priced similar the difference is the Keeley bat was made for a special batsmen and the Pack would be custom to my requirements.

HELP!!

the question is - does the keely bat meet your specs or not? There is little point in buying a bat that is wrong for you. If the keely bat is exactly to your specs I would get that, if not go for the Blue Room bat.

This is the problem. The Keeley bats weight is right and the profile isn't something I'd usually ask for but my god it looks amazing!! Ive never been too specific about my profiles as all bats I have differ in regards to middle location and so on but a one off bay would also be nice lol. I'm really struggling to choose between the two.  :(

i totally agree with this, no point getting a bat that that doesnt suit you or your style of play, but if it does meet your spec im sure it will be a blinder

both will be amazing bats im sure of it

PW88 - Mike is "Talisman" who is the person to speak to in this case.
