I always use Evans drum heads, they have never failed me and I'll never look back.  I bought this head for my DW 10inch snare that I use and it takes a pounding.  I beat the hell out of my drums as I play extremely hard and after over 3 months of pretty continual use it's still in great shape with really no damage due to the dual ply.  It holds a great tone and tune for months of use, so if you need one get it you won't be disappointed.
