Cascade used to make the IGSC blanks for Sabre before Pac Bay came into the picture, or so I've heard.
Thats when Bill Batson was the President of Pack Bay.He left the company thru a powershift in management.Then he opened up Batson/Rainshadow right down the street from Pack Bay. and took a lot of their business.

I don't know what the future prices will be ,but it does not sound good. Monday I will be ordering about 100 blanks ot secure my inventory for the season.

I will most likely stay away from the new blanks for aprox 6 mo till they figure out the production process. I don't want to be anybodys guinea pig.
