Joe, I think 30' is more correct than 30 yds. Sorry my friend my mistake.
I am glad to here you like it.

Great idea below - five thumbs up! Can't wait to hear that clicker in my ears.

As nice and tidy as can be, well done once again. Marvelous!

Finally got to hold one of these at this past Southern Rodmakers Gathering,
these are better than everything you have heard.

Not only are the the colors just dynamite - the finish is superb.
The click is smooth as silk as well.
