i dont tourny cast but you guys may be able to help out here,years ago i used to use a zippy 2500 for fishing, however i could not get into the thing and with the fixed reel position i got a sore right wrist when casting, sold it on in the end, since then have used a few rods settling for a couple of years with a couple of fladen warbirds and a shakespear neptune, i can certainly put some pressure into these rods without a problem and can push out to 150+ yards without bait, however recently a mate was selling his abu suevan xp, tried it before buy, two casts seemed ok, more recently though using it as a fishing rod the pain is back in the wrist again, seems as if i am trying to cast a far heavier lead than normal ( 5 1/4 oz) tried putting the extension on see if it helped - nope, i cant get into low reel positions, i set all my rods to the butt in my armpit and thumb being able to lock the reel spool with my arm straight,with the other rods i can fish even frantic sessions without problem, 4 casts with the abu and i can feel it building up
