what's the deal with those "skeleton/bone" type rods where the cork or foam doesn't follow from the reel to the butt end? Is it for feeling?

A split grip, it saves a little overall weight on the rod.

And it does allow more "feel" on the blank.

I make custom rods. I use this blank for an "all around" rod. Works well with plastics and topwaters.
