Thanks Guys ! Great ! So how would you list them from lightest to heaviest ?

Very Belated Thanks Tom, like I told Dale & Dave, elsewhere, I have to blame it on a Bad case of "Scout Report Eyes " ! THIS IS Worse than waiting for Santy Claus !

Has anyone ever Copaired the weigh difference of all the Plastic Gourds available for sale ? My favorite ( especially in weight ) is the Troyer Horizontal. I always wondered how much those poles are holding up , when I hear about them caught in high winds.

I'll say tomorrow, Dec. 21, I feel they're a little late .I always feel like we are in a bad sci-fi movie this time of year, "What if they don't come " ? "The Martins Are Gone " ! It's the END !!, And then , they Do show up !

I have 4 Troyer LONG Vertictical Gourd Arms. but I need 4 Troyer Horizontal "Straight LONG ' Arms, so I will trade 4 for 4 for them (say that 10 times ! ) Feel free to E Mail me at ; [email protected], Thanks, Anthony
