caveat-I love wong guns and feel there is no immediate need to modify. That said (ha!) on the hybrids does the shaft sit above the tube. If so would it help at all to alleviate whip by sticking a jbl or other track on the tube. I understand that the distance between the wooden portion of the gun and the muzzle is minimal enough to prevent this-if so this question is moot. but i don't know never having seen a hybrid merely my shiny new mesmerizing ono. Lastly, Bill (who I hope is out there to respond if so inclined) a while back you commented that the riffe island shot much straighter with wings though mobility was greatly compromised. Is proper weighting as in an ono, etc. enough to get around this issue as the ballast is present but there is no projections off the side of the gun to prevent the upward kick and the subsequent shaft drop. All input appreciated.
