Sachin Chaudhry:
Hi Guys. Anyone heard of these poppers? If so any stories to share??

Brandon Khoo:
Sachin - for the price, stick to the Haymakers, Dumbbells, Bills Bugs etc.

I assume you are asking about their really big model which is made from wood? Their smaller models are moulded plastic and come with disgraceful terminals

Sachin Chaudhry:
Thanks Brandon. Yes, I was referring to the larger model which is made from wood. Incidentally the website states these poppers as having 6x strong VMC hooks. Wonder about the split rings though. Come to think of it I have never heard anything about 6x strong VMC hooks as I have been using large Mustad doubles of 5x strong Mustad trebles which do not seem to straighten.

Brandon Khoo:
I'm not a big fan of VMC hooks, Sachin and there are only a very small number of split rings I would use for GTs. Terminals are a bad area to look for savings in when it comes to GTs.

Brandon is totally right Sachin.

I have just added an article about GT Hook Selection on the main website which you may also find useful.
