Finally got around to getting my hands on a box of these (May 08). I wanted to see what all the hype was. As Ive worked through this box,about 5 left, I find that for everyone 1 I love. I get 2 that are like sucking a golfball through a straw. I do like the stick based on my good experiences, but wonder if this is a characteristic of this stick,this format.Is it worth it to purchase these as I have been through many boxes of BoliPetit's and dont seem to have the same problems.Tell me if your having the same issues and how are you fixing or dealing with the tight draw sticks. My last one in frustration went out the car window.
