Comments: These are pretty good but the wire connection is a little stiff until you use them a few times. Otherwise they are perfect.

Comments: I had a very tough time getting a hook on this and had to use pliers to get it on, much easier for me to just re-tie with another swing head that already has another hook on it and have several ready to go with different hook sizes. I may try a different brand like the Mustad or perhaps the new Gamakatsu version but I did not like this Strike King.

Comments: I would not buy these. The hook hanger is nearly impossible to budge without pliers to get a hook on. Then it is so cheap that doing so breaks the hook hanger. Do not waste your money.

Comments: I bought several of these and loved the way they fish; however, the clip broke on two of the baits attaching the hook, and another on a 2-1/2 pound fish. I do not recommend.

Comments: These heads are the bomb ! I never had a issues putting hook on or bending the hook keeper. The hook does go on tight, but slips right on with the right amount of pressure. The head is smaller than most others, and you can change out hooks at any time. I have fished everything on this senko , worms , what ever you want. They all catch fish.

Comments: Purchased 2 3/4 ounce - had an issue installing a Gamakatsu #5 deep throat wide gap hook on the wire connector on the head. The wire bends out of shape twists around and is really cheap feeling. I'm glad I bought only 2 . The Larew Hardhead is not Tungsten but is built really solid - they seem stronger than the Strike King . I like the Strike King Tungsten head if it was connected to the hook like the Hardhead is.

Comments: The hook hanger is total junk. It's thin & flexible. I bent mine out of shape simply putting the hook on. After catching two 3 pound smallies, it was damn near straightened out. Didn't trust it for one more fish. Seems a shame to have to scrap a $3 head after only two fish. Strike King should be ashamed to put this type of quality out there. They need to improve the quality of wire before I ever buy these again.

Comments: These are exceptionally useful, compared to the VMC swinging rugby head. The hook tip on the VMC rugby head chipped on me one time & I do believe the their hook tip seems to wear relatively fast after catching multiple fish & also if you're throwing near a lot of wood & have mini snags here & there. The Strike King version is just more useful & you can use your favorite hooks. The hook keeper on the football head seems sketchy, but it holds up just fine.

Comments: Finally a tungsten swing jig that you can change hooks with. 1/2oz is slightly smaller than mustad 3/8oz. Paint is fairly durable. Have yet to hook up to a fish but the wire hook keeper is sketchy and I'm not sure that it won't break in a fight. It twist and turns when attaching hook.
