Igotcha Ball Retreiver
To Whom It May Concern:
Ordered my new retriever and received it promptly. Removed it from the box and tried it out by placing a golf ball on the floor. Read the instructions and followed them. When I placed the retriever over the ball and put a little pressure on it , the pin holding the head popped out and the mechanism fell apart. I "retrieved" the parts, reassembled the parts of the head and replaced the pin with a drop of crazy glue. While repairing the retriever, I also noticed that the "tighten-loosen" sticker on the shaft had been applied upside down.
After the glue dried the retreiver now operates. But I must say that here in North and South Carolina, many of the water hazards are small ponds with many weeds, dead leaves and soft muddy bottoms.
The dead plant life often catches on the spring mechanism, and sometimes the soft mud prevents the spring action from working. I actually now prefer the "cup" head retreiver, or the Callaway style.
All in all, I think your design is inferior for my purposes, and I was not impressed with the condition of my individual retreiver when first arrived.(Oops, I guess I should have taken some photos)
Sincerely
