What is sad is I am one of the younger members on this forum, yet feel like I am one of the crustiest old curmudgeons most of the time. Simple black for me, if an OEM build has a few white or silver rings I can live with it (Cleveland ferrules with the white rings used to drive me nuts for some reason). Nearly all of the builds I see with the BB&F ferrules look hideous to my eye, almost like someone barfed after eating a huge bag of skittles...but if you like them that is all that matters. It would be a cold day in hell that I would be spending upwards of $40 for a set of ferrules, I'll stick with the black ones from Grail Golf.
