I've tried the 5b long nylon tips and 5a long nylon tips sticks. I like the 5A better, like the longer stick for it's reach. Maybe just a little shorter taper. Seems to ware out just below the tip. Otherwise I'm liking them.

When I tried Woodies sticks initially, I wasn’t able to get the size I use. I tried another size, and while the sticks were high quality, they were too thick/heavy for my style of playing. I contacted Woodies, and they immediately responded and offered to exchange them for the proper size (which was available again). After a few days of sending the old sticks back, I emailed to check on the status of the new ones, and even though there was no actual hold up—they added another 3-pack for my time. Wow, thats excellent customer service. The sticks are awesome as well. As far as wood sticks go, they are solid and the nylon tips seem more diesel than others I’ve used. Haven’t broke one yet…which I’d normally go through at least pair of other sticks in the same time period. Woodies is definitely building my trust!

THis stick are absolutely the highest quality you could ever want. They feel a bit more front weighted which I am guessing will appeal to almost every matched grip player .Also I am guessing that a harder hitter will also love these sticks. As a traditional grip player, who doesn't play extremely loud, they aren't what I want to use. I will love these as practice and warmup sticks and have a pair in each of my gigging stick bags. I gave one pair away to a match grip player who hits just a bit stronger and as predicted, he loved them and will probably make the switch. I think these stick will go over hugely with folk who play the equivalent size in Promark or Zildjian as I think these feel similar, if not better. I'll certainly let some other guys try the other pairs I have. I wish I could have given these sticks 5 stars but the truth is that they won't work for me. They should be a winner for a large number of other players. The sticks are worth every penny, that's for sure. Also the responsiveness and customer service of this company outclasses just about all others in the industry. Kudos to the folks at Woodies.
