I read your posting. My friend and I are road trippers, patronizers of small town bars, and always looking for steel tip. However, we live in Colorado, hence outside of the major metro regions of this state and those around it, steel sip boards are rare.<br /><br />Anyway, you've found some good places to shoot. If you're take a long road trip out in this neighborhood, let me know, and I'll send you to a couple of good places to shoot. Bill Hi. I read your posting.

Increasingly I find myself in darts bars/pubs that have just removed their boards, moved them to a less accessible area or replaced them with soft tip.  If you find any others in this area (or any other area) an e-mail is always appreciated.
