I had one of their new nets in my hands at the CUSA Seminar and ifn you aint as big as me or bigger or Feelay, you better stick to the old model. It is purty heavy. I like the handle in the new one better, but the rubber net and the frame is way too heavy to be stuck out 9'. The handle is very easy to operate but the weight would keep me from buyin it. And plus it'll prolly cost over $50.00 or $60.00.
