jesse Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 Yes scottys were perfect for me & they are Canadian made.Check Spoonpullers if your looking for another brand because there was a brand new pair up for a good deal just listed that someone won in a tourney last year.They are walker tournament riggers.$900 for a pair new in the box but I am guessing he is east by his phone # if anyone is interested.Robert 647-321-5442 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lundtastic Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Been happy with the cannons so far, the exchange rate made them pretty expensive now. Buddy of mine got his set from Erie Tracker at last years price. He had old stock still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisb Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I use Big Jon electric. I have no problem with them. I don't really have any experience with other brands so I can't compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 The only downside to Scotty's is the amount of surface area they take up on your gunnel. All other rigger brands are more of a vertical profile, whereas Scotty's are horizontal. They have the nickname "lawnmowers" for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
