T I'm glad you ended up going with the 31".
At our heights anything longer would drag everywhere.
At 36-38"s after retrieving target you would have to literally carry it until your ready to dig again. At 31" you can stand up straight and let the shovel dangle with arm being straight. Imagine the extra length and having your arm bent to carry the weight for hours on every hunt.
Also with that length of a shovel, it won't hang on on a belt holder, unless your 7 foot tall. Lol

Actually ended up getting it from fleabay.
Was anywhere from $10 to $20 more on Amazon.
Used some of my dug 2020 clad to finance the acquisition.
