| Hi:
I was on their website looking at rods and saw their version of the double cow girls.
Has anyone tried them? Much cheaper than Cowgirls or Dadson Bullets.
I'm thinking of picking a few up.
Thanks - Matt |

| They are ok but my experience has been that they dont run well. I would suggest spending a few extra bucks and getting cowgirls or equals. |

| Not a huge fan of most of the T.I. line up but I have to admit the 10's are solid bucktails. I have a couple and they always start up right away and run a little deeper than a DCG. The flash is thinner than most and sometimes get caught in the components easier but not a big problem, otherwise they run very good. They offer some nice color combos too and the hooks are as sharper than most out of the box. I had a few issues with the 8's needing a jump start and I'm guessing that may be due to the deep cup blades used. Not really sure. |

| i have a good deal of them. All of mine work just fine. In fact, dare I say better than the bigger brand name on some. How I judge these is the blades starting to turn when they are supposed to. My TI bucktails seem to spin just fine comparing. I have a number of the "others" and sometimes you can't get the blades to go right away. |

Location: Savage, MN | I agree, the seem to run fine but in my opionion they seem to pull just a slight bit harder than a DCG, certainly not enough to keep me from buying them as they are solid constructed with many color options. |

| I got a couple double 8's In the spring and just ordered a couple more, they run great, the customer service is awesome and you can't beat the price (even cheaper if you buy them on eBay). |

| They run just fine, but more importantly they catch fish!

Location: Poynette WI. | I have 3 of the 13's, which are HUGE, I have the cooper head, baby pike, and cooper and steel. I added some wrapping to all three because the wraps were loose. The green mylar I never had much of a problem with tangling in the compenents, the other two I do. Then again I have the 13's not the 10's. The blades do spin well though. I make all my own bucktails for the most part unless I find a great deal. |

Location: Eau Claire,WI | I have a bunch of the 10's and 13's. The ones he has now are good,the first ones not so good. I like them,no problems with the blades spinning. I like his colors and he stands behind his lures,great to work with if you ever have an issue... |

Location: Land of the Musky | FYI--Our new double 8s have the thicker mylar and the new double 10s will also have this new thicker material.
Thanks

great call on a little thicker mylar, this will help eliminate some of the birds nest wtih the thinner stuff i hope. I bought 3 new d13's early last year and had trouble with the wraps slidding up and down on the coil. Is this a common complaint. I bought them online so I was unable to check them out first, glad to hear people saying they have gotten better anyways. Thanks |

Location: Oak Creek, WI | I have several and they work just fine. I just caught a 43" musky last weekend with a TI dbl 10. Today I actually received the (2) I purchased a few days ago. Great price/cust service. |

| I use the 8, 10 and 13's. haven't had any issues. I have caught a lot more pike than Musky on them but somehow I don't think that's the baits fault....... |

Location: Manitowish Waters WI | All the new ones are great. I love TI service and durability. I will say the first batch I bought about 4 years ago really did not make the cut. Three out of the four spun and never ran right. I have purchased 10s and 8s in the last coupe of years and they are 10x better. |

| I am happy to report I'm very satisfied with the 2 new tails I bought. I bought a size 10 Dominatrix and a 13 Booty Tail.
Both run great. I rotated throwing them today on Vermilion with no issues.
I do have one complaint. I #*^@ near hooked myself trying to get the rubber/plastic "safety" things off the hooks. Talk about a pain in the butt!
