Does anyone know if there will be another special pole shipping arrangement for Reno this year?

Shipping poles scares me!

I would say FLY them if at all possible.

I shipped from PA to Earl's in AR...
4 weeks later they showed up!

:confused:

No... I am pretty sure it was Airborne Express.

I think they got "stuck" in a warehouse in Ohio.

I sent mine to South Africa via BAX in 1997 for Masters Worlds, and they got back to California seven weeks later via Germany. NEVER showed up in South Africa and we paid close to $1,200. I take them on the plane now. Bubba
