26. Not if you've spent a long time in China and watched them. |

Great people. But bad dancers. They walk like they're drunk and ready to stagger over. This might not be true of Taiwanese or Hong Kong, but on the mainland, they stagger.

I have a friend who works at the local pro shop, and was going to buy them long, and have him put smaller shafts on, but keep the originals, so that they'll last longer.
