Default Bronzed mallard wanted

Can anyone point me in the direction of some top quality bronzed mallard for replenishing my dabbler box?

I'm looking for top quality stuff and don't mind paying top dollar for the right materials. I fell into the trap of buying a bulk bag last time and it's poor stuff that's been bulked out with some silver mallard.

I've been advised to look at the cookshill website but would welcome any other suggestions.

cheers

Gareth

I'm involved with a couple of tying supply companies & we have some coming over to us early November, we're told it's better than anything else that's currently on the market.

I too have also purchased from Cookshill and would highly recommend getting your bronze mallard from there and whatever other materials you need.

I recently bought some bronze mallard feathers from Laurence Finney via his website and was very impressed with both the quality fo teh feathers and the dying.
