Customer review for Butterfly Viscaria Super ALC - Chinese Penhold

External Review for Butterfly Viscaria Super ALC on March 6, 2022

A very nice blade. I use inverted (have tried Dignics 05, Xiom Omega V Asia, MXP 50) on one side and long pips on the other. I did not like the original Viscaria because I feel it's slow and I've hit with the Viscaria Golden which I feel is fast but it's not spinny enough (or my technique isn't good enough - and way too expensive for the way it plays). I like the JZK SZLC (used for 4 years- a little too fast/hard) and LYJ SZLC (used this last 12 months or so). The Viscaria SALC feels perfect in the middle between the LYJ SZLC and Viscaria. It has spin as well as speed and I feel I can drive shots with good variation selectively with good control. Chopping is better with the LYJ SZLC (keeps the ball really flat) but long pips play is better with the Viscaria SALC (I think mainly because the throw is higher so the ball is more disruptive). Blocks and chop blocks are also quite good against drives from US 2000-2300 level players. Just ordered a second one as backup.
