I'm about to pull the trigger on a new flipping stick today. Is there anyone with any experience with either of these?

This is a tough decision but found a great deal. I need it for flipping 3/8 oz. to occassinoally 1oz. weights in tules, brush and matts. It is to replace my old Lamiglas 8 foot telescopic flipping stick that weighs 5 friggin' pounds and has the shortest butt section ever made. Terribly uncomfortable to flip with, not because of the length but because of the weight and how tip heavy it is. Out of these two, which one would you go with?
