Look im not trying to doubt him here but how could he make bats for half the names listed when they all have deals with other bat companies.

This is a general comment ----Do you honestly think that the greatest players go down to the local sports shop and buy an off the shelf product...and...Do you honestly think that the players' sponsors give a damn what bat they are using as long as their company's logo is on it ?

@paulnunn he is a batmaker with great skill. I hope I get one of his hand made bats. Does he make bats for puma as well

[paulnunn]

@dillyalltheway

No he does not make bats for Puma

@CollingwoodLakersAB

I'll repeat a comment I made earlier

"Do you honestly think that the greatest players go down to the local sports shop and buy an off the shelf product...and...Do you honestly think that the players' sponsors give a damn what bat they are using as long as their company's logo is on it "

I think your answer might be in there somewhere :)

Batsmen of that calibre you mentioned have sponsorships from major companies (six figure amounts) to use their labels on bats. Julian is a one man business - He makes great bats - but he's not prepared to pay someone thousands of dollars to use them

@CollingwoodLakersAB most players are sponsored by a particular brand,do you really think adidas sponsored players use bats by adidas????they just paste those stickers on,sachin uses a wide variety of bats from ss,bas vampire to newbery,cos he's sponsored by adidas,people think he's actually use adidas manufactured bats.
