I bought one of those necks a year ago,and I have to admit,I dont use it much. The hackles are really sparse,and almost difficult to pick a single one out. I tye alot of General Practitioners,and vary the pattern to suit my taste. I picked up an orange Whiting neck,but after using it,I went back to Spirit river spey hackle[burned goose shoulder]and it is my favorite. Let me know if you want a sample of the neck,I'll cut it up for you so you can see if you like it. CJ
