Are you still using a ‘classic’ Browning pole? Or perhaps you have an old favourite Browning lurking in the back of your tackle shed?
If the answer is ‘yes’, then you’re invited to use it in a planned special match with the chance to win, amongst a range of prizes, a brand new Browning Xitan pole!
The match is free-to-enter and is open to all owners of pre-2005 Browning poles (see below). It will be held on Saturday 18 October at Tunnel Barn Farm Fishery. Spectators are welcome and visitors will get the opportunity to try Browning’s latest range of poles. Bob Nudd will fish the event too...but will not be eligable to win a new pole!
Frerk Petersen, Marketing Director for Zebco Europe / Browning said:
“Browning has been making poles for more than 40 years and we still have lots of customers who own or use one of our older models. It would be good to get these old ‘warhorses’ out for a special match.
Anglers will also be able to compare the old poles against our latest models to see how far pole technology has advanced. Even if just visiting the event, we would still be really interested to see any older Browning poles people have. I’m sure it will be an interesting and fun day, and somebody will leave with a new pole!"
To enter, or for more information, email warhorse@zebco-europe.com with your name and contact details and model of Browning pole you will be using. The closing date for entries is 31 August 2014.
There will be a just a few special rules to ensure a fair match:
• The pole used must be a Browning pre 2005 model. Pole ranges like the Carboxys, early Black Magics, Titaniums, Legends plus many others will be eligible. If you’re unsure if your pole is eligible email Browning on the address above.
• There will be pole length limit of 13m maximum and 6m minimum.
• A maximum of two top kits, plus a separate cupping kit, can be set up.
Book a place, dust off that old pole and come along and have a fun day!
