Hook...I agree with you entirely :) I use a 15/16 by 3 and 3/8 plain nose.

Yep, those Billie Jo Spears bars are great! I remember meeting her in St. Louis wearing one of Bill's caps. There was a lot of fun made of the initials being the same. She's really a sweet lady, and we all know about Bill's quality bars.

Roger I remember giving that cap she liked it so much and wanted her BJS on her cap I said here it is, and she put it on right there.
As far as the bars they are still being made.
Thanks for the comments,
Bill

Bob. I think you'll discover as hundreds of others have that there's none better than the BJS bars. Don't hesitate to get one. You will have no regrets.

Bob,
All I can say, is try it, you'll like it for sure.
My wife got me one for Christmas, and it's the
best bar I've ever used, and I do believe that it
does give you a little better sustain too.
