Just wanna make sure I get them sent out before travel again. They have been fun, nice relaxed feel, and the occasional pin prick to make sure you’re paying attention lol. The splashes look killer too! ---

These arrived yesterday and I’m just getting a good look at them this morning. I love the way it feels in the hand. There is a feel that I’ve been looking for. I was not quite sure what it was and I felt like I had it previously. I think the D Ptarmigan hits it pretty close. It’s that small, dense mono-metal feel. Coupled with the more sizzling sound of the D bearing and the Ptarmigan’s much better design than what I had in the past.. I’m finding the feel very pleasing to throw. I’m more partial to smaller throws as is and this just reaffirms that trend. Now I feel I will be on the hunt for one. I’ve got to do more comparisons but there is definitely a marked difference in the D and C bearings as far as play feel. That’s all I have at present except to say that all of the ano jobs look great. ---
