I am looking to purchase a scoop in the near future and want opinions on which one I should buy.

I want opinions on which ones hold up better in both wet and dry sand. I will only be hunting freshwater areas (not sure if that matters or not). I definitely have some time to make my decision as to which one to get as I am located in Ohio and it'll be a couple of months for me to be able to get into the water.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and for your input, it is very much appreciated! Good luck and happy hunting to all!

I have 10+ years on an RTG stainless, and I also have a SunSpot Stealth. Both are incredible scoops and worth every penny!

Wow, I was hoping to get more replies and/or opinions, unless the RTG stainless is what everyone agrees upon?

Sunspot is just up the road from you a little I think, just across the border into MI...I bet you could even go up there and see if they have any 'blems' or returns or something?
Those are great scoops, ...

I posted the sticky but if you look, you can probably find at least one thread on every page. There are two on the first page.

A lot of us use Sunspot made in Warren MI. A tank
