Is this advice from a non-kneeler?
Posted by: guideboatguy on Dec-05-12 9:50 PM (EST)

That model Zaveral has a bent shaft, and the OP is a kneeler who wants one with s straight shaft. Some favorite strokes that I do kneeling can't be done with a bent shaft, or even a straight shaft if it has a designated grip orientation, so I have a hunch the OP has his reasons for wanting a straight.
