Difference between the Batson SW and SU series?
 

Can anyone tell me the difference between the two series besides price? I am looking for a new 10' spinning rod but I do not want a a very fast action. I would be interested in a more moderate action that would handle plugs between 1- 3 with the sweet spot around 2.

Thanks

The SW series is a fast action, small tip stiff butt rod. I have built SW1208's, great plug rods, lousy jig rods. tips collapse when trying to sweep the jig.
The SU's seem to be amore moderate/mod fast action. Look at the SU1207 that might fit the bill with what you want. ( I have a SU1209 that I need to wrap for me...
Contact Mike at CCBT. He is the guy for Rainshadow blanks.
:D

Woosta,

Thanks for the info. That SU1207 does sound like it will fit the bill. BTW, I grew up in Grafton.

SU1207...good stuff contac Mike
Grafton......I grew up Burncoat St area in Woosta
Still up there

Mike has built three rods for me and I love his work.

I went to St. John's and I have a buddy who grew up on Shafner St off of Lincoln St. I know that area fairly well.

The SU series is a copy of All Stars Rods .
The SW is a lighter version.
I was on the phone with batson last week and the only SU available right now is the 1209s I got all they had.

Well get on them for some 1207's & 1028's :smash:

I want one for a canal conventional stick..
