I love my OB1 !!!

I enjoy both the OB-1 and the 314-2. I play the 314-2 on the steel joints of my Schons and Mezzs and the OB-1s on big pin sticks. I truly believe that the OB-1 with an ivory joint and big G-10 pin has a superior feel and hit. The one I keep coming back to is a forward balanced Steve Klein.

My favorite hit is a big pin with full ivory joint with a low deflection shaft. I love my ob-1 and won't play with anything else.
 
I have an OB1 (Radial Threads) if anyone would like to purchase it from me....(First person to give me $100.00 gets it....Origonal Tip, Origonal Taper, Low Miles)

I tried it and found I like my normal shaft better.

I feel like I get too much spin on the OB1 (belive it or not)

I feel like the tip grabs the CB...so much so that it puts unwanted spin on the CB......

I can't fully explain what is going on, but I have missed farily straight in shots where it seems like the OB got thrown off line....I have had my opponent look at me like "how the hell did you miss that"

Somehow I think that perhaps normal shafts have more room for error (meaning how straight your stroke is) I think OB1 shafts probably require a more exact execution of stroke....(I could be wrong)

All I know is it has cost me a couple matches already by missing super easy shots that I would normally have made and won the game/set.

I am done giving it chances at this point...I am just going to suffer with a normal shaft and make balls.

You sure can juice the ball though with an OB1...That is for sure...
