When visiting Dick Thompson I was lucky enough to leave with a set of grips for my Gallagher 475....

Nice set James! I agree with the others here,,, the holly I've used & seen is nothing like that set.

Very nice jfs - and btw is that skinner a Loveless? been a long time since I've seen one - wish I hadn't sold mine (life and family first, you know).

Guys, I have both Holly & Box Elder Burl, that is Box Elder Burl on James gun in the photo. I just put a set on Daniel Harrison's 44 flat top when we were visiting. Thanks,
Dick

no problem as far as I'm concerned... usually Holley seems like it's normally used to simulate mello aged ivory... I've just not seen it's burl used on grips that I've been aware of anyway
