Best bat I have ever owned. Went down to the factory for a custom made experience and it didn't let me down.

Fantastic willow with fantastic results on performance! The staff are very friendly and helpful too.

If you choose Hunts you wont be disappointed.

I haven't had the above custom made experience but I have had 2-3 that have been ok.
Glorys are pretty good.
Old-style Turbo was the best though  :)

Which shape Glory? I've used the recent 'big edges, big bow' shape and last season's traditional shape. IMO the Indian shape was far better.

Hunts County are very underrated I think. They're very nice bats in my experiences with them. I've never owned one funnily enough but my best mates has had 6 or 7 from them and all very nice.

Website pics makes the glory look too high for me.  Was thinking the Triumph looked my best bet, due to length of middle & it seems to go quite low.

You could ask them to make you an insignia shape.  That has a low middle.

I own a Glory, and the middle isn't as high as it looks on the website, well mine isn't anyway. However, my friend owns a Triumph and it is a wonderful bat. Best bat I've owned, and one of the best I've seen. Goes wonderfully, decent price, as Colesy says very underrated. Would recommend to anyone!

Are they good oval handles.   I've been using Newbery & I love the shape of the handles they use.  Fancied trying a new bat manufacturer this time.

I really like the handles. If you went down there for a custom one they'd do it how you wanted
