They shut up shop a few months ago, I was talking to the sales guy a week or so before it shut. They apparently are moving to somewhere in Brunswick and will become an online only store

And I can assure you there was a lot of 6 figure stuff that my eyes could not believe there for customers. I can't believe Johnny Dury was handing them to me to touch and feel :shock:

Nice guy, nice business.

This is less than half the shop. And yes he is very tall.

Are you sure that what you saw was in fact a "badminton raquet" :unknown: :shock:

Those little dudes are cunning,, and it coulda been .375 H+H in CAMO,,, and he was just fitting a new sling.
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing!
I've come to realize that,,,,, the two most loving, loyal, and trustworthy females in my entire life were both canines.
