Adam Carreire had the good fortune to sit down with PM Terry Lee of Simon Fraser University Pipe Band while he was over judging the George Sherriff Memorial competition and have a chat.

For those new to the hide bag tie-in, it has always been necessary to measure out and place the spots where your stocks will insert. A quarter-sized hole is then cut into the leather and the stock pushed through. The trick is always to get as round a hole as possible.
