My pin down Lt-48 is a lot more area/recovery than my pin down Slingshot or Strike King! My Strike King is a step down for when the Lt-48 is hooking to much. For me the LT is just under where my Versa-Max was. I was disappointed at first with the LT cause it was a lot more ball than I was expecting or that I heard it was, but it's an awesome piece! Just my $.02, Bruce
