        Ive just put the browning z12 up and what a piece of kit that is…
        At 13m its honestly like holding a topkit its extremely ultra lightweight, super stiff at 13m totally responsive and has the best super smooth finish on all sections including topkits that ive EVER seen.And feels as strong as any pole ive ever held.
        At its longer lengths of 14.5 and 16m its no better than an airity or gmaxx but is equal to them all.
        It comes with an awesome array or kit and spares and is carbon wrapped extra at all the unshipping points where the hand grabs.
        I cannot praise it enough and the sections are the longest ever at 2metres long!!!!
        A great pole and must gonna be a massive seller the only down side to it is that it aint gonna hold its resale value like an airity does but other than that awesomly awesome I WANT ONE. 🙂 🙂 🙂

          I would have a bet that the resale price does hold up as they are difficult to get of.

          Must agree that they are awesome but like holding a top kit at 13 metres? NO.

          I fished mine today for a bit and it is great, the fishing was very hard though and I could only get bites on a feeder!

            I havent seen any Z9s for sale secondhand but suppose a few will come up now the z12 is out. Im thinking of a 12 and ive already had a few asking what I want for my 9 so looks like the resale prices on are gonna be good. One thing about the 9 is that the joints dont seem to wear. Had mine 2 years and used it a lot and the joints are still like new. You dont get black hands in the wet like ive had with all the other poles ive had. I had a maver once and the topkit joints were shot in 6 months.

              Like holding a topkit is just an exaggerated speech to show how light it is at 13m thats all but its gotta be one of the best at 13m anyway

                Q for BIG FIN. Are you going to be the Big 1 show this year and will you have a z12 for me to try?

                  PaulD – Yes mate we will be at the Big One. We are also doing a show in Coventry on the 18th & 19th Feb, we will have the Z12 there also. And the show is free to enter.

                    One of the guys I fish with and occasionally posts on here fishes for a Browning team. He got one of the earliest Z12’s out after fishing with a Z9 for a couple of years. He says it is better than the Z9 which he has sold without any trouble at all.
