well, i went to a field near work today. i was throwing a 2 ounce sinker, 65 braid, and the 525T. i tweaked the guides a little, but over all i liked how it was from the start. i did not notice the layout take anything away from distance. i am not sure just how far the casts were going, but i was almost going end to end of the field with a lot of mag and a 3/4 cast. the field looked to be as long as a football field at least. the only signs i saw were some that said "Parking for cricket players only"..

when it is all done and the specs are official, i'll let you all know. thanks for the help!
