better than any other rod ive used
buying a hamachi rod specifically an xos gtndoggie is like buying a lamborghini, it's very expensive and a little over priced, but you get things that other rods dont, lifetime warranty, the best customer support on the planet (you actually talk to a real person that knows fishing and rod building inside and out straight away, no matter how you try to contact them) you also get the best rod on the market, hands down never used anything like it, try it for yourself as writing about it doesnt do the XOS any justice

insane rod

absolute beast
first time using my xos 3 piece i noticed how sensitive it was, like i could feel every drop of water hit my popper and it shocked me when i finally hooked a fish and felt how strong its back bone is
