I'm mostly a dirt hunter, I do hunt lakes with mostly clay bottoms maybe 3 months out of the year, maybe 20 hunts max/year, I have a floating sifter. Also some dry sand beach hunting maybe 3-5 times a year. So not a ton of usage.
That said, I was hunting a pond and could have used a long handled scoop so I want to have one. These three options use 2mm stainless. I don't want a mega scoop.
Here are the three I'm thinking about and wanted opinions:
1) Amazon Ukrainian #1? I was favoring this one but worry the lip won't dig in clay well. I would remove the hand handle. 4.5 x 8 x 11.5 inches

2) Amazon Ukrainian #2? This lip looks like a digger and I like the smaller profile, i would remove the hand handle. L: 11.6" W: 5.9" H: 5.12"

3) Whites medium scoop, just saw this today, is also on Amazon, like that is Whites Large* – 8″ x 4.5″, Medium* – 6.75″ x 4.5″ opening:

A would prefer a Stavr at $145 but he doesn't have m9 available.
Pics below in order 1, 2, 3. There's more pics of each on the linked pages. Maybe favoring the whites at this point....
Thanks! Really appreciated.
