Don't get me wrong, there is no question a good bat makes a difference but they are not a cure-all

Hi Clobber,

I understand about how I should be focusing on my game, and I do. I pratice each of my strokes for at least an hour a day, working on technique etc. But the bats I have don't seem to help. The previous bat I had was way too heavy. I am of light build. then the secnd one was lighter but didn't have that "ping" or power to enable me to hit the needed boundaries sometime.

It was a totally rational question

Can I just ask something here?

Most of you seem to be young guys just making your way in the game. As such does it really matter how many grains your bat has? Quite where you get the money for some of these bats as well....

Point being at this stage of your life wouldn't you be better off honing your technique instead of faffing around with expensive bats?

(Bear in my I post this from the perspective of someone who knows a LOT about bats)

yer the private bin seems perfect for you, my private bin has 12 dead straight grains, pings so well, especially as i have used it for a couple of months, the willow is so light, soft and pingy, my private bin is 2lb 7 and a half, my carbo 2lb 10

What do you guys like about the bat? How is the ping?? How many staright grains do yours have, I am looking for about 9-11 Straight grains. What is the picku/feel like. What weights do you guys have them in. I want a bat that is about 2'8/2'9 but picks up like a 2'6/2'7.

Hi i have a laver&wood private bin, i was soo impressed with it i have just got another one, the heritage model but with carbo stickers and handle, and like the first one its a gun. they are very helpful their , they make a bat completly suited to your game, where as the sterling i believe is a set model.

hi i have a laver & wood private bin and it is by far the best bat i have use in a long time. although i have never used a bradbury sterling i still think that lavers are generally made better because they are made to your exact specifications and the sterling isn't, however the sterling is obviously a brilliant bat but you cannoy go wrong with a private bin. also the service from laver is excellent, just ring them up and they will sort everything out for you.

Hi,

I am having lots of trouble deciding between a Laver & Wood Private Bin and a Bradbury Sterling! Anyone who has used any of these bats or any bats from these models, please provide your views. I can only get one good bat and I need to know which one is better, I am really confused!

Thanks
