Im looking into buying a kpro for my evo, but im concerned if its going to be too top heavy, considering that the evo is about 5.4 oz (as stated by rock-it pocket) and the kpro is about 5.1 oz.

Does anybody have any comments about top heaviness, or whether they think the above combination of an evo/kpro is too top heavy.

Also, does anybody else have a stick where their head is heavier than their shaft?

Edit: Great Atlantic says the Evo is 5.4, rockit pocket says 5.3,

Thanks.

that shouldnt be top heavy at all. if those are the true weights of them i gaurentee you will not notice .2oz. that should be a perfect combo

nothing is really top heavy because when the balls in there, the tops alrdy going to be heavy no matter how light the shaft is. it wouldnt even be noticable so it woulnt matter.

Top heavy is a relative term.

I have a Mohawk head on top of a very light DB Triax shaft....this is about as "top heavy" as it gets.

If I can deal with that, you can probably manage with your combo being off-balance by 0.2 oz.

Also, MACDADDY is perfectly correct - putting a ball in the pocket adds 5 oz and makes any combo "top heavy".....I fail to see the big deal.

It really all depends on how comfortable it feels to you. If it feels too heavy, get a klyte so you have a heavier shaft, so then it won't feel as top heavy. I really think your thinking too much into this, and besides, .1 of an oz, or even 1 oz is next to nothing, so don't worry about it.
