    10-9 Biado Shooting

    As the match with Gorst.... was nearing its end there was this one shot I saw at the 26:28 mark. Biado had such confidence to draw whitey 3 around and get perfect on the 6. When I saw that, I Knew Biado was going to win it.

    Seyberts states they are ''one in the same'' within their advertising. They sell leather and phenolic. Logic, makes me think your tip for a jumper should be different than a break stick. One mfg I'd think uses an Extremely hard leather. Dried out or done in another manner. Tanning? Saddle...
