At one time you could find it in shoe stores and sporting goods stores--it works really well for softening up a new baseball glove.

Hey David, is there any chance you want to use it for gut strings? If so you can also give a try to regular baby oil, works great , if that is not the purpose . sorry , im out of here.

Agreed - if for guts, the neatsfoot oil (being an animal by-product) can get funky, as it were. Stick with the baby oil, which is typically just straight-up mineral oil. No fuss, no funk.

But, maybe he likes that 'simmering bacon' smell on the fast passages.

[Ed Fuqua]

mmmmm, bacon....

[Aaron Saunders]

Maybe he's softening up a *really* stiff quiver?

[anonymous0726]

I find a couple of beers works wonders for that.

[Ed Fuqua]

Ray, I don't think that means the same thing in Canadienese...

[Eric Jackson]

Where I come from, what Ray's talkin' 'bout is known as Brewer's Droop.

[anonymous0726]

Well, my comment was a little more obfuscious in nature -- I was commenting on 'liquid courage'. Brewer's Droop doesn't kick in until many beers later...
