Solid 12-10 down 10 inches. Finally pulled it out and nearly fainted. Threw it in my pocket and walk away quietly. Down a ways I look at it and laugh:BangHead: Oh well, the next one will be real. image.jpg

Next will be a winner! Last year I thought I had a junker when I pulled it and tucked it in the pouch, but once I started finding the rest of the set and noticed the weight I got the shakes...

Still a nice ring you found..!

And that's one heck of an arsenal you got there. Just remember, the CTX can be as easy or as difficult as you want it to be. Good luck buddy:occasion14:
