I've had 2 other ball retrievers in the past. I've only had this one for about 3 weeks but so far, so good. I like it's compact size, the mechanism that captures the golf ball, the way it telescopes and the all metal construction. The compact size allows you to store it in a side pocket of your golf bag. The spring loaded dual ring that captures the golf ball works better than others. To extend the length, you just pull it out, them push it back in to collapse it. Most others, you have to tighten and loosen a ring on each section when opening or closing out. The all metal construction looks and feels like it should last a long time. Only slight disadvantage versus other retrievers is that it doesn't extend quite as far but I thing the positives far outweigh this one negative

Very easy to retrieve those golf balls that don’t like to go on to the fairway and prefer heavy rug and water! Just be careful not to push down to hard on the smallest extension let the spring action do the work. If the ball is stuck in mud under water... is the ball worth breaking the retriever?

I have only used this I Gotcha ball retriever a few times in the few weeks since I purchased it but I really like it. It is very well made with tight slip joints that extend easily. It has an enormous reach and has had no issue picking up golf balls from all kinds of places. I have fished them from water, under bushes, across creeks, and so on. So far I have collected about 2 dozen stray golf balls that would otherwise been left to face the harsh elements on their own. Very good buy and I would not hesitate to purchase another ir/when the time comes.

With ease a ball can be retrieved from ponds or brush. Compact storage and terrific extension. This is our 3rd time purchasing Gotcha. List one and one top broke off the rod due to our careless storage.

Best ever golf ball reteriver!! It is the easiest reteriver to use and get the balls you go after. Makes me want to stop bplaying my round of golf and just keep getting golf balls when I know there are so many to be had out there. It pays for itself in found golf balls. It is a KEEPER! Love It!
