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.

the big edges, big bow bats - there are plenty of really nice Hunts bats available near me - martin berrill sports is about 20 miles. his shop has a really good range.

I had a top of the range Clipper a couple of years ago which was a very good bat - although the stickers were rank!!
Changed the stickers and it looked so much nocer - but performance was always good!

Still have an older Insignia LE!

I have a Hunts Mettle here, purchased off Jimba101 on this forum, and I have just finished refurbishing it. A lovely bat, feels nice in the hands, and seems to perform well, even if it is 4 years old!

My edge was a custom i got made there. Got a hairline crack at the toe after about 6 months so Tony gave me a brand new glory :)

The insignia on my bat porn posting (stickerless) is a 2lb 11oz lh. For a grade 2 it's a great piece of Willow. Has a great,  massive shape. Very good bats! http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=8157.msg123077#msg123077

Have bought myself a Hunts County Triumph form Martin Berrill sports.  I have to say, he's a top bloke to deal with & even sent me pics of bats he has in stock.

Can't wait for it to arrive!!

My mate broke 3 in a season and they were all custom made.... he must have been pretty unlucky cos most people rave about them
One of my other friends got a blank bat there and the ball flies off it... i suppose its pure luck!

I would love to bat against my own bowling
