Great way to use that technique. Larry Tysinger just did one similar. The carbon sleeving is taking off.

Very nice looking Mike - Did you check the height and weight on butt guide with the Fuji TATSG - I am thinking you can get higher and smaller ring at the same time with less wt - not sure

Thanks Bill. Been kinda using what I've had on hand at the time. The VS3's are not the lightest but are fairly tall. The VS320 is 3.2g so I could lose a little there. The crutch butt is 11.4g but I like a solid butt;) It also balanced the rod out nicely. I'm gonna go for the lightest possible next time while still attempting to give the look and feel of a complete grip assembly. Gotta keep something on the blank to charge the customer for.
