I try not to express opinions, but rather express the facts.

Here's an opinion of many tournament casters: If you can't load it, you can't cast it.

Here's a link of a tournament caster making a cast. I would consider it to have mid rod flex.

I enjoy your sense of humor. ;)

It's like an elephant.

One guy describes the trunk.
Another, the tail.
And the last guy describes the leg.

Sid (above) see's the entire elephant.

The link I posted shows US National distance casting champion and US record holder for the longest US distance, Will Nash.
The rod being cast has a MF to F action. Will has the expertise to achieving the utmost performance from the entire rod.
