      The original split grip was intended to improve two handed casting by placing the rear hand consistently on the butt grip. In modern use split grips are use aesthetically and to reduce the cost by usi

      Full grip for me. I can't find any advantage to a split grip. You get weight savings, but it's in the wrong place, so it doesn't matter.

    I like full handles on casting because most of the splits are way to short in the upper handle area.  I have one rod that I do like the split and it is a steez flexlight.  For some reason the handle and grip area is large enough for me to get a decent hold on the rod.  Spinning rods I could have either way as getting a good hand hold is not an issue.  My current favorite spinner right now is split grip.  The look of a full grip in cork is way nicer IMO but function is always most important.  The cork on my dobyns dx rods is very nice looking.
