Default So...WHY Giant Scale?

Craig, et al....as a relative newcomer to gas (only 2 seasons, really), I'll share my take on the issue.

Started with 29% AW Edge, then a DP Extra 27%, then a GP Pitts, 33%, now a GP PW Extra 27%, and the Wildhare Giles 202 35%.

After much comparing....for me....the fact is the bigger (and VERY little more expensive) Giles is the better performer. Visual presentation, much more solid "feel", and slower speed, combined with what I perceive to be more predictable response, adds up to "bigger is better".

I can't say if 40% anything would be better; I'm limited by shop and van to a 97" wing, so I won't know.

But the Wildhare DEFINITELY has the edge in solid feel, handling, and stable, predictable performance.
