I just jumped on my new ESSX poles yesterday and They are awesome. They get a really good high bend and then unbend quick so it tosses you over the bar just like a good pole is supposed to. And they are crazy light I think my smaller one is like 3.5 lbs and its a 15'. I was holding about 13'8" on it and was getting over 15. Im not saying that ESSX poles are the best poles but they are the best ones ive got.
For anyone else who has jumped on essx like Scott Duckworth, what do you think?

I really like the Essx poles also. They work very well for me - they feel a bit easier to get in on and then come back better than other poles I have used. Nice high bend makes the swing a bit easier. I PRed the first day I used them - 15'9" - so I was pretty well hooked from day 1. I still carry one of my old Pacer Carbons - they are nice poles also, but I prefer the Essx. For me they seem to work best.

probably 85% of our schools poles are Altius poles and the other ones we've just randomly accumulated somehow.

whoa, u are right with essx poles being great. i actually tried an essx pole a few days ago and have to say they toss me way high. just wish i new how it felt before i made my final decision to buy new pole.

Ex poles are def. my favorites... consistantly good all the time the newer carbons about to come out are suposed to be lighter than pacer's. thats a good question for bruce...

hurray for essx. hurray for EB and all of the BA team

i went to Earl Bell's camp down in Jonesboro, and i jumped on the new Essx carbons. i must say, they do feel nice.

that they are... and i asked bruce a long time ago about the carbons, and think i remember him saying that they are not lighter. if you're really interested the post shouldnt be hard to find

I think they are excellent poles. for me at least,t hey felt different than the other poles i had been using, and seemed to give me more kick. sadly i progressed through both of mine in a span of 2 weeks

I've grown used to UCS, and I've only used a pacer pole beyond the UCS, and I didn't like the pacers at all.

perhaps sometime I'll give Essx a try, if Hoogie even has any around what I need, haha.
