Not incoming... HERE!!!
Got my new Forged Carbon today. Its pretty sweet, heavier then expected (119.9 grams) and wears larger then expected too. I couldnt imagine a Legacy or T3!!!
Thanks to Thomas and Ken in helping me with this decision... and of course all the enablers posting their FC pix!!!

Yeah, I do... I'm 4 weeks out from the North American Championship, hence the extra vascularity and shrunken wrist size.
