I have done a 'hybrid' (Samson or New England call it a "tuck-bury", which is half-and-half, as the name implies, and has directions for it), but one of the reps said they seek to discourage the tuck splices because the HM fibers tend to abrade one another where they cross at the tucks. I'd be interested to know if anyone has tested this, since I'm often looking for a shorter splice, esp. around tackles and such.
