We all know us batsmen can be very fussy so we can alter the length of the blade, the weight of the bat, the length of the handle, and the shape of the handle. We hand grade our clefts so can usually find a cleft that you are looking for.

By hand crafting our cricket bats we can make the bat you want, from the profile of the bat, edge size, a concaved shape or a full profile. We can position the sweet spot for the kind of conditions you play in. Fast bouncy pitches where runs come from flat bat shots need light bats with a high middle as scoring shots come from generating bat speed. Low bouncing pitches need heavier bats with lower middles. Bat speed is not as important as getting value for shots, so a slightly heavier bat is recommended.

For example bats for the UK and USA we would recommend low middles due to the general low and slow nature of the pitches, while we would suggest bats to be used in Australia/South Africa to have a slightly higher middles due to the fast and bouncy pitches you are likely to encounter.

All our Willow/Clefts are sourced from a long standing willow supplier in Australia and Holland, ensuring high quality clefts and more importantly superb performing willow too.
