Is the weight of a package winnowing it's way from BUSA. Now I've already been told a new plane will be sent, but that was about 2.5 pounds the first prop-less go round. WHAT in the world weighs 13.5 pounds???? :huh

It's either that or some very heavy pink boxers.

Don't think it's the book - they slap a tight cardboard case around it with no padding. Just not that heavy.

Can't rule out a month supply of boxer shorts.

I am stumped.

Hi Sharky,

It's an easy one.

You are obviously getting the 1st copy of the new catalog/chronolog are whatever its going to be called oh and the 2011-2012 price list.

It's the massive prices that are adding all that weight........ :shock:

Or the coveted yellow Golf bag!!!! A chap at our club has one, VERY yellow.

Hopefully a set of schematic drawings of the next proposed changes to the line. They require your input and subsidy. :lol:

Dang dude, I caddied for years as a kid. A 13 pound golf bag would have been a dream round for me. I always got the Rodney Dangerfield guy and was "double bagging" as well. The owner of the bag on my left shoulder would slice the whole round and the one for the bag on my right shoulder would hook the whole way. By the turn I was pleading with them to just friggin' hit 7 irons off the tee!!!! "Son, where's my driver?!" "Cracked sir, try a 7 iron." "Give me my 3 wood." "Shaft bent sir. How about a lovely 7 iron?"

You very well may be getting the golf bag, I just googled the image online and it looks to be rather heavy. I am sure the box weighs 2 lbs ,and the avg golf bag prob weighs 8 to 9 lbs. Did you know there was a Breitling invitational? They had swag never seen before. There was a cool looking leather bowling type bag Breitling had made.
