I've chewed this over with Jim, who has always had a penchant for the denser, golf ball style head, on more than one occasion... and still never come to any conclusions! Maybe the denser style does shift more water, I do feel though that there can be more to a muddler though than just causing a fuss. The smaller, sparser, more 'airy' style, by virtue of its wayward fibres, trapped gas, space and movement brings to mind that explosion of life, light and flailing appendages to be seen on many a waterborne critter. The dense approach rules out most of these attractions. Then there's the confidence thing Stan... from the very first time I dressed a muddler, the golf ball just felt and looked wrong... or maybe I just kidded myself that my messy fledgling efforts were better, more attractive
I'll stick with my bullsh!t theories for now though Stan - I like the look, it makes me happy, and that's 99% of the job.
