Throw-in order

Going to order a couple of NS shafts, if anyone else wants in on the order to save postage, you have until 12pm Friday to put your name down for stuff/start sending money my way.

people are getting stuff next month at the tourney. Rik, magic poles and such. if you wanted something something different. I've got a spare NS brutus if you need one for now.

Thinking of ordering some Northern Standard Poles, they're £9.95 and shipping is £6.50 for up to 10 poles, does any one want to go in for a group order...?

Their website currently lists only the 1.0mm Brutus poles. Should suit us fine.

Ask about mallets at polo. if you want a capped head throw in have 'the metal heads'. not as complex as others so thicker and heavier, last ages but will probably want to drill them a bit.

The main method currently in use is a single bolt through the end of the shaft, pulling on a nut which becomes wedged in the taper of the shaft. There's nothing much wrong with this method apart from occasional loosening after a few months and a little wear to the bolt-head when you lean on the mallet.
