Nope. Prosharp took the machine back.

I should have the Pro Shop back up and running in a month or so.

I remember about 10 years ago there was a first responder tournament in Orlando and we had a team from Edmonton coming in asking for 5/16" - up there that could work for them but definitely not in FL. They all changed (and won) the tournament.

When I worked there, I did not have any 16 year old employees, nor did everyone in the store sharpened. The most I ever had was 6 sharpeners out of a staff of 25 - roughly 25% of the staff. It was the only way to maintain quality control. But I was the exception, not the rule. It’s truly a blessing that I’m no longer there. I can’t see myself still there if I had the opportunity to. My skill set wouldn’t have been appreciated. And from what I’ve been told, it’s a breeze to swap wheels/hollows on the FireBall.

I spoke to Steve a few weeks ago about it. We’ll sit down on a video call soon for a live demo. Steve’s a pretty tall guy, but it doesn’t seem that big to me.

It's going to be different - there'll be more info soon, but with fall weather, more outdoor stuff can be done - so for people who have come to previous Winterfests, they will see a side of Detroit that they normally don't.

Absolutely - just saw where you're located and there a few people in that area who should be driving in for this.

Mike - we'd love to see you! The hope is that in October you'll be able to cross over!

Yeah, aluminum‘s completely different.

Busch sticks (Sher-Wood Carbone, Itech/Busch Balance, Graf Laser) didn't have hollow shafts - they were filled, but a completely different manufacturing process. Other than the TPS Adrenaline, which had a vibration-dampening insert in the shaft, every high-end stick was hollow.

It was always a question of when, not if. MLB did the same thing.

The SE16 had the weights in the heel and nobody cared until they were visible in the EQ50. EQ50 got an undeserved bum rap because of that.

Good article in terms of how Per got to where he is (and he's a great guy, well deserved!) but also a bit of an advertorial.
