“Batson just makes really good stuff”

Those words come from a competitor of Batson’s, not from me! However, I do concur that Batson produces some of the highest quality and ‘coolest’ products in the market.

Here are some of the reasons Batson remains a leader after 25 years of business:

1. Quality – The excellence of their blanks and guides is undeniable, and it’s clear that the superior quality of their products is the foremost reason.
2. Inventory – Batson maintains the largest inventory of rod building blanks and components, boasting enough stock to last for two years. This ensures that our products are always available to you, our valued customer.
3. Fulfillment – Shipments are usually dispatched in full on the same day they are ordered, which ultimately results in faster delivery for you!
4. Larger selection of Products – Batson has over 500 blanks choices and 5,000 different ALPS/Forecast rod building components. That’s vast!
5. Engineering – Batson employs two full-time engineers who together boast 75 years of experience in creating high-quality, high-performance rod blanks and components. Mike Thorson serves as the 1st VP of Engineering & Sales Manager at Batson Enterprises, Inc., spearheading the team in blank engineering.
6. Service – Batson’s service is unparalleled — well, perhaps only matched by Terry and myself, but that’s a minor detail. Whether it’s a customer or us seeking advice or assistance in designing a rod, Bill, Karry, and the entire team are exceptional!
7. Warranty – The commitment of Batson Enterprises to warranty issues is unparalleled in the industry. However, don’t just take my word for it; consider the testimony of a customer who recently experienced their warranty service:

Example of Innovation and Excellence

For instance, these are the “Ultimate Reamers”. The Ultimate Reamer is not just a reamer, it’s a precision tool designed for the rod-building industry, to do the job faster and better than any other reamer currently offered on the market today! The Ultimate Reamer’s Mandrel is taper ground from heat-treated hardened steel using a proprietary process. Then, conical Tungsten-Carbide/Nickel teeth are placed in a uniform grit structure, affixed to a flexible sheet, and permanently bonded. These reamers are second to none! Ultimate Reamer is unsurpassed in the industry and just one of many examples of Batson’s pursuit of excellence.
