Gold Fox 40

Anyone used or seen the new gold fox 40? They sure look sharp in the picture.

Is it a new whistle or a new color for the classic?

Once you go petrol, you never go back.

Fox has Amazon.com handle it for them. Amazon.com: Fox 40 Classic - Gold: Sports & Outdoors It's exactly like your Fox-40 Classic....just metallic gold in color.

Not recommended in regular play....basic black rules...unless, like previously mentioned, "pinks week" or "blue V Foundation promo".....but may want to use 'em in scrimmages and/or clinics/camps. Great for "awards" too!

Of course! Just ask tjones1 - he's the equipment junkie. (I had to have the suspension re-done on my car after taking him to a game one night. How many officials do you know that bring 3 suitcases to a game?! )

Here is an image of one with a cushion mouth grip. I envision this being the new Crew Chief's whistle. We would then get some street creed from the players for having bling in our mouth.




Here is a 14K Gold Fox40 Whistle Pendant. If you didn't know what to get for your spouse.....

Innocent until proven guilty. Turns out my court date is getting pushed back several months...apparently something happened in Springfield today.
