2019 Z BONE vs. Conquest

[RDB]

I have both and both are good rods.  If price is no object, I would go with the Conquest personally.  I have tried most of the higher end rods and have moved to all NRX/NRX+ except for 1 Z Bone and 1 Steez Bottom Contact.  My plan is to get rid of the Kistler and Diawa and go all NRX for feel applications.  In my hands the sensitivities are great but they feel different and I want the consistency.  No need to spend that kind of money for moving applications IMO.

 

Edit:  While I completely agree with others that high end rods should have good cork, cork optics is pretty far down on my list necessities.
