I just visited the new site and am glad to see all the blanks I typically use are included in the listing. I build mostly for customers who fish for bass, trout and redfish in the Louisiana Marsh. My customer base has developed a pretty sturdy brand loyalty to the Rainshadows. I noticed that your blank listing presents a joint Rainshadow/Forecast lable. Is there a distinction between the two lables, as has been in the past?
Thanks for the matte clear - LSU Purple and Gold on a Green Blanks don't sell too good!!!!! Bill Stevens Gon Fishn Re: Batson Enterprises - Rainshadow/Forecast New Website

Bill,
One thing that I would really like to see you do on the Batson site is to list the dealers by name in addition to location. I would assume that the vast majority of your products are sold via mail order, internet, etc. The way that it is now, you have to click on a location on a map in order to see a list of dealers in that area. If you're like many of us, the location is immaterial. It would be much more covenient to list all of the dealer (maybe separate them by state) and eliminate having to click on all the map locations to find them. When I look for a dealer, I have no idea what state has Batson dealers in it, so I have to individually click on each state if I want to know who sells your products Other than that, Great site and great products!!!!!!

Yes there is a difference. Materials & colors. Rainshadows are the RX8 & RX7 materials, Forecast are the RX6 material. On our website and in our catalogs you will see and read the differences. Please feel free to call if you have any questions.
Thank you Bill Batson CEO Batson Enterprises wbatson@ olypen.com 877-875-2381 Re: Batson Enterprises - Rainshadow/Forecast New Website

I noticed a big mistake on the website...
you don't have any dealers in MD/DC/VA area :) the dearth of supplies in the nation's capital continues... Re: Batson Enterprises - Rainshadow/Forecast New Website

The map is the best way as of right now. You can see what states we have dealers in as there is a DOT in the state which we have dealers. I would consider thinking about something different. We do supply a list of Mega - Distributors with our catalog packets.
Thank you for your input. Bill Batson CEO Batson Enterprises Rainshadow/Forecast Re: Batson Enterprises - Rainshadow/Forecast New Website

I like the improvements, and the new lines of blanks are even MORE appealing to a budget minded "builder" like me. The components have me hooked. Forecast travel blanks, YES!!!!!! Re: Batson Enterprises - Rainshadow/Forecast New Website
