My only concern now is durability.

After 4 months of use, one of the TO's has lost some of it's snap and so 80% of my shots/passes are knuckle balls.

Now, what do I do with 3 new uncut TO's?
I agree that the 85 flex RS feels whippier than my 77 flex total one. But I find it to be quite blade heavy and unbalanced. And my slapshots have no pop compared to the total one. I've never been able to use the elliptical shaft for some reason starting with s17 to s19 and now RS. Back to total one. Gonna trade the RS in and try the APX
