Fully understand Stu - keeping costs down and being competitive can be a tricky balancing act.

I'd expect Schuey Yellows to be the most popular tyre in the dry and probably a close call between a BB green or a Schuey green in the Wet.

I think a BB Green has a wider cross-over usage spectrum than the Schuey Green - meaning that the BB Green could still work in the dry or the wet whereas the Schuey Green may be only a wet tyre.

But if the top surface disappears like it has done in the past, a Schuey Green can suddenly come back into their own in the dry as they have done at other grass venues and now, the Schuey Silver could also prove very effective in those conditions.

It does my head in that's for sure...

Gone are the days when I could run a set of Hotshot blocks for an entire season at my local club...
