I checked today and the other kits in stock all have a pencil, but it's a regular sized golf pencil. I know AMK was having trouble re-ordering the mini-pencils and was speculating on having to replace them with regular pencils, so I'm guessing that's what happened.

Don't know why my kit was missing a pencil but I'm not going to complain about it; all they'd do would be give me a golf pencil to replace it, I suppose. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
