Just when I convince myself my buddy Steve Torman cannot improve anymore on his fine strikers, he sends me a batch like these. I have run these on all the surfaces and they are the real deal. Turkey killers. I almost feel sorry for them next spring.  *lol* *lol* Thanks again Steve, your work is amazing.

Jeff,

A little birdie told me I was #3 on the number of strikers made by West Augusta. I was told that Torman is #1 and some car salesman from Tennessee was #2. Our ole buddy Jim Runnels is up there also.

Glad that you like them Rickey.  It has been a pleasure to make them. 
For the record,  I show you and the car salesman from Tennessee tied for 2nd but you have one more on order.  JR is still up there but is falling behind.

Rickey, golfers have caddys. Do you have someone to go with you to carry all of your calls??? *lol*
You've got a nice load of ST strikers. I may need to go in the business of striker bandoliers for next season.

Only one problem with those strikers, they're left-handed!

Jeff,

I may be like Porter. Crack the door and throw any new calls in. Anything that falls out is what I hunt with that day.  *lol* *lol*

Actually my wife has given me a room in the house that is all mine. I bought and made some storage cabinets so I can keep everything organized and half-way know where everything is located.
