LOOT so you get all of them at the max length, does the extra weight not affect the balance then? Or do you get them hollow?

I've been leaning towards WRH2 when my turn comes but the more I think about it the more I think I should get WRH7. Tough decision.

The WR2 head is heavier than the WR1. In SS I have a solid 7XL and a hollow 7XL hybrid. At one time I had a hollow 7XL and really enjoyed it. It got sold tho I do prefer it to the solid. So yes. Hollow definitely balances better. My others are in Ti.

I do gravitate to longer handles and neither weight nor balance bothers me at all. I have a WR1 on a solid 100mm WRH1 that I really enjoy. It's crazy handle heavy.

Hi Loot How would you compare a WR1. 94 SS to a WR2 1.55 SS

I think the 94 is close to a 135 in efficiency. The WR2 is smoother tho. The BBS from a 155 would last several more hours than a 94 is all. I've tried several times to get a 1.02 or 1.04, to no avail....yet! I'm hoping to get on his nerves enough in the future that he relents. Ha!

Edit....don't you have both those?

WRH2 is my favorite. I had the WRH7 at one point but sold it off. Too many curves - seemed too feminine. Grip was ok. Also really like the WRH1 (hollow).

Interesting. I’m not near the expert LOOT is, but I have two Wolfman razors: a WR1 .74 OC I bought about five years ago, and a WR2 1.35 OC I bought about nine months ago. I find the efficiency about the same in both.

I'm no expert, friend. I just tried a bunch. Chance are greater I'm just full of crap. Ha!

Do you have a Blackbird? If so, where would you place it in there?

For grip I prefer WRH1, WRH2, and Darwin. For looks I prefer the WRH7 and Darwin with a WR1 Head. The 7 is what I think of when I think Wolfman. For looks I also prefer the WRH3 or WRH3/7 Hybrid with a WR2 Head.
What Hunter said above. For utility the WRH1, WRH2 can't be beat. 

The Darwin is also a favorite, smooth, but the facets give it a non slip grip.

The WRH3 is also one I like a lot, but the smooth part between the base and the knurling is slippery.

The WRH7 is gorgeous, but slick in my hand.

I also have a WRH7 long hollow. I really get along well with that handle.

A WRH3 long solid, that I wish I'd gotten hollow, and the same with a WRH1. 

The long ones in steel are better in the hollow versions regardless AFAIC.

I've been leaning towards WRH2 when my turn comes but the more I think about it the more I think I should get WRH7. Tough decision.

Why not ask to see if you can get both handles when your order comes up?

I am thinking to ask him two heads and a handle when my order comes up.
Actually I want two base plates and a handle, I already have both WR1 and WR2 top caps, don't need more. 
But I don't think he will accept.
