pop's in the winter...

I've noticed that Pop's rosin doesn't perform as well for me in the winter as it does in the summer and when it's humid. When it's cold and dry its not as sticky and becomes hard as a rock. Maybe because it's designed for Texas not the sub arctic tundra I call home. What I'm wondering is would it be a good idea to use Pop's in the summer and another brand in the winter and, if so, what would be a good cold weather brand.

Thanks

Simply try more Pops on your bow and see what happens.

However, everyone I know (including me) seems to prefer a particular rosin like they prefer a particular brand of beer. The end results are the same, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try all of them to determine your personal taste....
