How it works

Three steps to
the middle.

Most bats are bought on looks, a sticker and a guess at the weight. We start with you instead.

  1. Take guard

    Eight one-tap questions: your height, how you score, the weight you like and what you want to spend. Two minutes, no sign-up.

  2. Get three bats

    A safe pick, a stretch and a wildcard from every maker we list, each with plain-English reasons. Including the bits the maker doesn't publish.

  3. Try it at home

    Pick up a ready-made bat, shadow-bat in the kitchen, feel the balance. Keep it, or send it back within 14 days.

The home trial

14 days.
Your living room.

A bat shop gives you ten minutes and a mirror. We give you two weeks with the bat in your own hands.

  • Free returns on ready-made bats within 14 days.
  • Feel it properly. Pick-up, balance, grip, how it sits at your guard.
  • Send it back unused (no ball contact, no oil) and you pay nothing.
  • Made-to-order bats are built for you, so they're ordered directly, not trialled.

Household names alongside one-person workshops. Every bat they publish, with the price they charge.

    Women's bats

    Built for you.
    Not cut down.

    Women's sizes are shorter in the blade and the handle, with a lighter pick-up. Our fitting asks for your size range first, and shortlists bats made in it.
