One aspect about the Z vs. VS that doesn't get a lot of attention but to me is critical is casting distance. The Z, for me, far outcasts a comparable size VS. Why? Because of the line lay on the Z, you are able to fill the spool right to the edge vs. the VS "Hourglass" line lay. There have been many occasions where the extra 10yds was the difference for me. I also seem to get far fewer wind knots with the Z. It's not perfect, had water intrusion a few times, replaced a clutch and some seals, but when it is good, the performance is outstanding.
