If I were only going to have one rod, I would want an all star 1208 as I find it handles 5 oz better than the arra, but is infinitely better for lighter stuff than the 1209. I don't know how different the new rainshadows are, but my understanding is they are pretty close to the old su's. If true, it would be my choice if I couldn't find the all star. I find the increased wear of casting 11' all night outweighs any benefits. Three or four hours of casting the 1327 in the morning is different and I wouldn't want to be there with out it.
Wait, seriously? The 1327 weights nothing compaired to 1205 & 1208 & 1209 , perhaps you have the wrong reel mounted on it or its wrapped wrong.

I had spine surgery Nov 2011 and again in Dec 2011, and the upgrades to the centuries allowed me to fish in May of 2012 tossing upto 5oz on the 1328 like nothing. This was due to the weight and balance of the centuries, let alone the added advantage of the distance with out trying.......

FYI i never cut the 1328 i dont see a need for it.
