if youre using the plastic sides of your beaters, then thats why
i had a good head, then i turned the beaters around to the plastic side, and bam! a hole straight through it

Sounds like the need to use patches. Like a Falam Slam, or the Evans equivalent. I'm actually using some of those right now.

I am. Clear Evans EQ patch. Broke straight through that too.

Do you dig into the head and stop dead or do you let the beater leave the head after a stroke?

I was wondering that too. I've had an Emad on my kick for over 2 years, without a scratch.

Gretsch, Wooding, Ludwig, Sabian. random hardware.

I might just get a Remo Powersonic anyway. For sound purposes and so I can use the ddrum triggers without that plastic ring in the way.
