Ok guys tell me what you think. I bought a used rod for flipping and pitching today. When I got home I put a reel on it and went out back to see if I could do the pitching technique. First cast was perfect. Next one was perfect. I'm thinking I'm a natural. Next cast the reel handle hooks my pocket and the rod slams into my gas grill breaking the rod about a foot from the top. It's a clean break. So do I chalk it up to bad luck and a loss of 40 bucks or can this be repaired?
been there. If you buy a new rod just get one with a good warranty. if this happens again your all set. 
sorry. you cant return a used rod. but ive returned a couple of broken rods within 30 days and no questions asked
I have returned rods a year or two later and no worries. Some rods offer 2yr,5yr or lifetime warranties. Of coarse you can break 3-5 40.00 rods before you meet the price of a higher quality rod. But when you battling grills that might be a better option.
