    My New Estate Hardcastle

    My newest addition to the rotation a Hardcastle special quality blasted billiard ! This is as close as I'm going to get to a Dunhill, it resembles all those Dunhill shell briars that I keep drooling over. I have identified the flaw that kept it from being a Dunhill, just a slip of the hand...
