I really like the turkey jig and I usually have an abundance of those feathers... seems like a perfect marriage.

Have you guys thought about a mold swap.

I see the potential, but I think it would be much harder to get participants for because of the larger expenditure, plus it may be a bit frustrating to get a mold that you have no interest in (or already have).

HOWEVER... maybe the fellas at Do-it could set up a rental system like gamers have as a "try before you buy" on their molds?... and maybe only have it applicable to the high end molds for those on the fence of such a purchase?...  (Just a thought.)

This is just a thought... Maybe do-it should offer sample packs of jigs similar to the program that they offer with their soft baits..

This is going in a direction I had not expected. But a Mold swap although an interesting concept scares the @#$% out of me. I have loaned molds and had them damaged one almost to the point of being useless. But, if somehow one could figure out how to deal with damage it might work.  A true mold swap would need to be carefully regulated. The only thing I can think of is an "acceptance board" where pics of mold and product be posted before it could be entered into the swap.  But I think this would just be a way of causing hurt feelings. 

I buy and sell a lot of molds on ebay which is my version of a swap.
