Why, in your opinion, do your customers break more IMX an GLX rods than "any other"?

I've only broken one of my IMX's and it was my fault. Boat flipped a walleye. I've talked to guys in my store that fish with GLX's and they have never had a problem with them braking. If you're careful with them they won't break. They do use a thin graphite so that could be why some break em more. You'll break em easy if your not careful but with Loomis if you break it send it in and they'll give you a brand new one.

The irony of rods like Loomis GLX is that those most likely to benefit from these rods are also the ones that can not or will not spend the money on them.
