Never even seen the esp net but had a springbow since they came out and i love it. Prefer it even over my dymag nets i had. The only thing i did was get the shallow korda mesh for it as the mesh it comes with its stupidly deep.

Thanks for the reply . It's a shame you can't buy it with the shallow net .

Have the dymag, korda & esp net, all three top nets, for me:
1. Dymag
2. Korda
3. ESP

I won a kaizen green net and wasn't expecting much but I've been really impressed with it, very easy to split and has the shallower net, save a few quid and get the green

A guy at my syndicate loved my springbow but couldnt justify the cost so he bought himself the Green and I will echo your thoughts here. Apart from the plastic block it worked just as well as my Springbow. Dont know how Korda can justify the cost difference between the 2 if honest. Both excellent nets

I've got the Springbow and it is an excellent net. I've also got the 2-piece Green and again, a cracking net. I have used my mates 6ft Green and that is also very good.

If I lost/damaged my Springbow I would replace with the Green, there's not a lot between them at all.

I've used both and they are both top notch. I ended up buying the ESP Onyx net as I don't like a very deep mesh. Also as an added bonus much cheaper.
An addendem to this is ESP just sent me a totally free replacement mesh, as my one, (after several years use), was knackered. With customer service like this it would be the ESP net over the Korda all day long.............

I've put my ESP net into storage since I've owned the Springbow. So light but with a solid feel to it , easy to manoeuvre and the arms are always easy to break down. As mentioned before the mesh it comes with is far too deep IMO but other than that it's been perfect. The ESP net is also a fantastic net but for me the springbow is superior .

Thanks everyone for the reply . Looks like I'll wait for a deal to come up on the springbow 👍
