Sporting Goods

What an unruly category! Major brand names with their fingers in every flavor of pie means that they are listed in every section? No sir. With whip and chair we have fought the wild beast and directed it to our will.

You will see the mega-brands in the list at right but will also find lists under the following headings:

Cycling is filled with many known names as well as independent producers. If one orders a custom bike, does one still use the word "bespoke"? The Fishing section is for quiet times out of cell phone range. From the late Bob Hope, "Drugs are very much a part of professional sports today, but when you think about it, Golf is the only sport where the players aren't penalized for being on grass." Where Other activities could not find a section, we made one for them. Racquet sports, always popular. Shall we serve? Skiing is where technical know-how and manufacturing excellence meet people who appreciate long evenings in front of a soothing warm fireplace. Table sports? Seriously? Yes Victoria, just a few. We finished this list with our healthy skepticism intact.
