Here are the variables that are in this experiment: Line Power: Equal both at 10 lbs Rod Lenght: Equal both the exact same 76 rods made by the same manufacturer with the same power rating Reels: Equal both lines were on the same sized Shimano Stradic Ci4 reel Lures: Equal both were 1/2 oz teardrop shaped weights so that wind-friction is minimized Casting Force As equal as possible without a $$$$ machine Line Diameter: Not equal but thats ok because it is part of the reason why braid has an advantage Note: I did 5 casts with each line for the first round before switching the weights and doing 5 more casts to make sure that the weights used were not impacting the results

Depending on your application technique and finish brand, it may take more or less

So, when you get into a hurry and misapply pressure, it wont result in a backlash catastrophe
