Super User Muddy Posted February 1, 2009 Super User Posted February 1, 2009 Re tipped Rod????? Circumcision mistake?? OPPSSS MISUNDERSTOOD YOUR QUESTION>>>>my mistake Quote
Super User flechero Posted February 1, 2009 Super User Posted February 1, 2009 There are 2 types of retipped rods... 1. a tip top (guide) was replaced due to damage or wear 2. a new tip top (guide) was put on where the rod broke. If #1, there are no concerns for me. If #2, the rod will now be shorter, stiffer and slower. There are very few times that #2 is a good thing. And I have nott ever seen a "factory retipped" rod... so that throws up a red flag to me, at least with out a better explanation. The old expression: if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is (#2). ;D Quote
