GADawgs Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I am trying to decide between the two. It will be mounted on a 7'1" MHF mainly used for plastics and jigs. I am just trying to figure put if the Tourney Pro is worth the extra $100. I would appreciate input from any owners or people who have used them. Thanks in advance. Quote
robster80 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 i have the tp and love it. however with the rebate from lews on the SS and some places doing an extra 10prcnt off, u can get an SS for 60 bucks after the rebate so if money is an issue u may consider that. Quote
FlipSide Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 IMO the tourney as is just as good as the tp. And its 50 cheaper Quote
Capt.Bob Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 The Tourney Pro with better main gear and lighter weight is the better reel over the Tournament, both have a better drag and better braking than the Speed Spool which is the reel on sale and with the rebate, it is a good reel but the Tournament and Tournament Pro are better. The SS with rebate is a great reel for the price, but nowhere near the reel the other two are,,,,,,,,,,save your money and get the TP which is a much more refined reel, all are good buy's for the money. 1 Quote
Super User tomustang Posted May 19, 2014 Super User Posted May 19, 2014 Search around for a better price on the pro. They can be had for $150 Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted May 19, 2014 Super User Posted May 19, 2014 The TT pro its great reel. I was browsing through ebay the other day and very reputable seller was offering them for $148. Another great alternative is the Tournament MG. Quote
nocellcontracts Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 If the gear ratio you want is offered in a Tourney PRO, get it! I just ordered 4 and they are they BOMB. Also, most places online sell them for $199. I get mine here for $149.http://www.sportsmansoutfitters.com/ Quote

Not only is it worth the extra 100, I feel like its competitive with the reels in the 250+ range. It can be found for 150 on a reg basis. I have 5 TPs and I love then. Simply awesome little reels.
