Hi all I have not posted in a while, been quite busy with medical issues.I have a question for anyone that can answer.Has anyone done any type of guide weight comparisons and charted the results??? I tried a search but came up empty.I recall that some one had done this, but can't seem to find it.
Thank you
Bill

I put it up a year or more ago but nobody has submitted anything in a year or so. Everyone wanted the info but very few took the time to provide any. Sites like this dpend on a flow of info in BOTH directions! The site is still up and I'll maintain it but someone needs to provide data/info to post. I can easily set it up to hold any type of data that someone wants to list.
