Since I'm older than Rob, I'm sure it doesn't bug him as much.

I guess "vintage" is in the eye of the beholder. My garage wall has 4 wooden sticks. Only things not natural, the various repair materials used to fix the the wooden walls as they cracked/broke. Made the big switch my senior year (1973) in college, wooden shaft with a plastic head and mesh.

Just for the record - this proves that Coach Martin is old.

anyone have a D80 laying around-now that's a classic stick-good for putting pizzas in the oven too.

I had a similar model that year, from STX, but with a pocket I had to string myself---the mesh came the next season. That was so long ago it was before they had names for the new models. As I recall, these were simply called "sticks". :lol:

It is when the kids never heard of the Sam, the Highwall, the Brine Magnum, the "Dominator". the SAMII, the crooked arrow, L33/ L35's, or remember when DeBeer used to be the biggest equip provider!!! Those are for those of us who remember what it was like to have to tie our helmets to make them fit rather than add foam velcro inserts...

Four words "Sports Helmets" & "Nike Sharks"

I actually have two of those gracing the walls in my "Man cave" like the Shenanigans on the walls at Applebees....
