The Best Croquet Set

Unfortunately we are now in the run up to Christmas as I write this (September 2011), but it doesn’t mean that you have to be all winter minded as you start your Christmas shopping!

I actually played my first game of Croquet a few weeks ago at a friend’s wedding, and I loved it! It is definitely more of a summer game, as you lounge around on a well kept lawn - sipping either some fresh lemonade or if it really feels like summer, a nice glass of Pimms.

This Halex 6 player croquet set has got to be one of the best croquet sets on the market at the moment. You can see from the picture above that it is all really high quality stuff, which makes it infinitely more satisfying to knock the balls around with weighty mallets.

The set includes 6 twenty four inch hardwoodd handled mallets with caps, 2 stakes and of course 6 balls for you to use (as sharing croquet balls kind of ruins in the game!). There are also 9 wickets which should keep you plenty busy on a nice summers evening.

Everything in the set comes packed away in a really nice, high quality croquet bag and carry case, so storing the set in the winter should not cause you too much of a headache. It also comes in handy when you pack everything into a car to drive away for the day, and lets you play a bit of impromptu croquet!

This croquet set is currently one of the best sellers over on Amazon, with some great reviews, so it is well worth checking it out.
