#3I think Bob Taylor arrived at some point in the 80's and left in 1990 or 1991. I'll check in some of my notes, I used to collect this type of information.

#5Troy Jacques joined in 1991.
I’m quite sure Bob Taylor joined Leonard during 11th grade in 1965 and stayed pretty much until their end in 1984. He joined T and T not so long afterwards. I think his tenure there was 5 years, so Peale’s info would be pretty accurate.

#6As per a recent request from a board member, I looked up some of my notes from the old days. The only thing I found regarding the above time frame at T&T was for Bob Taylor. Confirms the above post, Bob joined Leonard in ‘65, was there until its end and then joined T&T in ‘85. Was there until he started his rod company in ‘91.
I did have a couple of phone conversations with Mr Taylor back in the nineties about rods and rodmakers, but not about his tenure at Leonard or T&T. So my information is from secondary sources.

#7I interviewed Bobby at the 2013 Colorado Rodmakers Reunion. He told me he worked for T&T for five years after leaving Leonard and before starting his own rod making business. If you are interested in reading that interview it is available at https://siouxcityjournal.com/sports/rec ... 8ffad.html
