I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

The golf swing is actually a great analogy because I do play a high draw. Keep the motion smooth and release the club head. Sounds like it will work for this. My father in law plays what he likes to call the 40 yard fade! He's not much help when it comes to fishing!

I also cast right reel left. I kinda wish I would have learned the other way. It much easier find reels if you reel right handed.  What Lb test line are you using it might be easier to start out with a light line like 10lb just a thought

Jefferson

12lb yo zuri hybrid. Have to tinker more with the brakes. Revo S, I have the 3 spring brakes on and the 3 pitch brakes off. Gonna try later at the park, seems like less wind today. Maybe turn off one of the spring brakes. It's not really the backlash, its more about trying to get distance.

It's all about the tension knob.

My buddy gave his revo s and I can get it to cast very far either. I have messed with it very much it is the only one I have with that kind of breaking system. If you get it figured out let me know
