I've used the digitals but switched to the Shimano spring scale from Wal-Mart ($19.00)and I really like it laugh

It is Dead-On accurate thumbs
It's adjustable so if the spring ever gets weak you can calibrate it.
It has a sliding marker so it still shows the weight after your done.
Plus it never needs batteries, like my digital does when you need it to weigh that pig! wink
