Here is a super sweet striker I just got from my friend Steve Torman . After running an Ipe striker he built for Scott Witter , I knew I had to get one. I always have to push Steve though with special requests lol. This time I asked Steve to build an Ipe striker with my favorite tip , The " Fulcher Flare " as he calls it . I also asked him to incorporate a grooved ring around the top where I can attach a lanyard to prevent me from losing it. This striker has great friction and plays well , plus I am not likely to leave it laying at the base of a big tree. Thanks for the awesome striker Steve !

Nice!! I like the idea of a lanyard ring, too... :funnyturkey:
Looks great. Steve,is a great guy to deal with.
You can bet that if it was a $50 bill in my pocket , it would have a lanyard attached also. Now it wont get left behind.
Congrats Bob, Steve great strikers and the idea for a grove for a lanyard is great!
