Tournament Choice rods

[LoneStarAngler07]

So i saw my friend using one of my rods and he was constantly asking to use my setup cause i was trying to break in my Daiwa Procaster rod i had just picked up. well i agreed and i was very suprised by the feel of this rod. i mean ive seen em at academy for 15 bucks and i have never used one but it felt damn good! and i felt every strike like i was using a ugly stik lite...it was odd, but i was wondering if these are any good, i dont think they are considering you get what you pay for but has anyone used one of these, and i think it was just me cause i hadnt been to the lake in three months...
