This morning I took advantage of the sale Get Bit is having on NFC blanks, and ordered 2 blanks, both from the IM series, and I'm wondering how the North Fork IM blanks compare to Rainshadow's Immortal line of blanks? I absolutely love the Immortal blanks I've built on. Are the IM blanks from NFC as good as the Immortal blanks as far as sensitivity goes?
The NFC blanks I ordered are the IM-MB709, and the IM-DS6107. The MB709 is, going strictly off the published numbers, a very stout blank with a moderate fast action that I'll be building for predominantly flipping and pitching, but I'll undoubtedly try it for Carolina rigging, as well.
The DS6107 I'll be building as a drop shot/shaky head rod. I was just about to pull the trigger on an Eternity2 ETES610MXF to build my new drop shot rod on, but with the North Fork IM blank being basically 50% less in cost I decided to give it a shot. While I'm sure I'll be happy with the rod I build on the above mentioned blank, does anyone know how the North Fork blank would stack up against the Eternity blank mentioned?
Anyhow .... just looking for some opinions on how the IM blanks from North Fork will stack up against the Rainshadow blanks.
Any responses will be much appreciated.
