I got a flyer in the mail this week from Acadia Sports offering a "buy one, get one free" type of deal. This is apparently a new company that is trying to spread the word about its products.

It says the blanks are 98% 24 ton high modulus carbon graphite. They use Grade A natural cork handles, black titanium oxide guides with gun smoke frames and metal thread wrap with epoxy coating. They also come with a poly case.

Cost is $39.95 plus shipping of $8.95 (no matter the number of rods ordered) or $7.95 if ordered online.

The president admits they are losing some money on this but still thinks it is cheaper than sponsoring someone or advertising costs.

Curious to see if anyone else had gotten anything like this in the mail or heard about these rods.

Check out this thread, Mid-Mo.  A few of us discussed this flyer and these rods just a day or two ago.

Thanks for the line - hadn't seen that.  I'm always a bit skeptical of things like that.  I'd be real interested to see how they got our names too!
