| I will say that I have never played a better sounding or feeling bar than a BJS bar. There are many good ones out there I am sure, but none BETTER. IMHO. |

| There's not a better bar than a B.J.S. and not a better person to deal with than Bill Stroud. |

| Thanks for all your help. How about the bullseye bar and what does the coating do? and is it sticky? |

The Bullseye is not sticky. The coating is a friction reduction treatment for oilfield parts, from what I was told by the bullseye folks. Someone on here a while ago said it was TDC (Thin Dense Chromium). It is a chrome coating, but it is applied differently which I understood to make it a tougher and slipperier surface.
I don't have one myself, but I've played one and it seemed good... BJSs are well made, I've got two of them... I don't think you'll have a complaint with either of those. |

To be very specific ... Gullite...
I have a Bullseye and had several other bars done with TDC years ago .... superior quality and performance.
