Can weighted O3 Tour compete with POG Mid?

[drummerboy]

Hi

You all know that POG is a classic. Can O3 Tour compete with this classic stick. I know that stock O3 Tour is too light, but what about weighted O3 Tour with 3gr at 3 and 3gr at 9 o'clock and 6 gr in the handle to maintain the original balance (so 12 gr to the frame.) How would you guys compare them?

im not so sure how it would fare against the POG mid in a no holds barred cage match....but the O3 tour is a good frame weighted or not

I have played with both and the 03 tour is a bit more flexible, had better feel and has a larger sweetspot. I thought the POG mid was ok at best.. If you are talking classic players frames I would look at the prestige classic or prostaff 6.0 95" before the POG. Just my opinion......

I went from a POG mid to an O3 Tour. I'm going to add some weight next week because the O3 feels weaker on the serve and twists a bit due to being more flexible. It does have a larger sweetspot and better feel. With the added weight, it should be a much better stick than the POG.

With added weight, the hoop becomes more stable and solid and then it is a much more comfortable stick than the POG..

Basil how much weight have you put on your O3 Tour?
