I get mine from here:

You could go with the tungsten-iron, but I'd go with the Hevishot (which is also tungsten) Plus it also comes in smaller sizes.

You used to be able to get it per oz from freedom, but it gets even pricey-er that way, because its really pricey to begin with.

Ive seen this thrown around too:

But not too sure if anyone has had success here or not.

If you want tungsten, you should either hook up with others who are interested or find a stitcher willing to part with some. Otherwise, be ready to pay a lot of money for a lot of tungsten, lol.

I'd also check this out, its fairly recent:

Do not buy tungsten iron. I proposed that fill a while back, and I'm a fucking idiot for doing so!

Iron rusts, and rust is bad for footbag. Nuff said.

Probably because they're in San Diego, California Alf. The shipping would be murder (not for you, but for them since they have to think about how to package it and worrying about customs).

Try finding a local manufacturer and distributor of tungsten in Germany if you can.
