Urine? who or what's?
I may have seconds thoughts about buying any second hand or vintage strop for now on,
with coatings of ball grease and someone or something's urine soaked in them what is going on?
I'm pretty sure urine was used in the tanning process back in the day.
Now I know why my Russian strop smelled "Funny" when I opened the box.
This makes me wonder about my old Russian strop!! lol

Yeah, wullie is just a bit late but he still made it. Let's watch him for a month or so trying to 'apply lead' by shooting his strops before we tell him :pQuote:

That's when your buddy sez 'piss on your strop' and it's advise. Not an insult! :D
Got any strops I can practice on to develop my leading technique? Ammo is pretty pricey these days, but I know where some dead batteries are located.Quote:

Yeah they're all cute'n cuddly while they're in the swimming pool, but out in the ocean those teeth will take your arm clean off at the shoulder. :rofl2:Quote:

Well, I guess I cant eat any more asparagus...
At least you soap it after you soak it! :rofl2:
