For the price, they can't be beat. I get mine from Menards. I usually buy a couple of handfuls of the straightest 3/8 in., take them home and sort by spine then weight. My experience has been pretty good. They are fairly tough and usually heavy. Just a couple of weeks ago I found one that a squirrel dodged and was lost through fall and winter. I checked it out, sanded it smooth and I am still using it for stumping.

They are on the heavy side. My last batch averaged between 75-80 to 85-90. With 69# @ 31.5in. they do pretty good.
