Anyone have experience with one of these? They were on clearance at Canadian tire so I picked one up. Lookin for pros and cons of the unit. From assembly it seems like it is a good solid and sturdy unit. Will give a review once I get out and use it. It was bought from the Trenton store and they have one left for $75
 
Same deal caught my eye as well. They look like they are retailing for over $100-150, and I'm wanting something with a foot release, so this might be the ticket.
 
Well got out this afternoon with it and put a couple hundred birds down range and it functions flawlessly.

I am going to change where the foot release is, I find it to far forward and could be awkward if wearing heavy boots. Drilling 2 holes 8-10" back and moving release would fix this. It would also be nice if it were tooless to change elevation.

With these minor things and how it functions, for $75 it is money well spent. I have used the cheaper fly high and found that one to be junk.
 
Put this together and threw some clays to check flight --- looked good. Agree with moving the foot trigger a little ways back. It feels like you're going to take a chunk out of your shin with the trigger so close....
