Treehopper drill - mini or not

[Scott F]

I am placing an order soon and wanted a quick ask of the forum - do I go mini drill or the slightly larger drill from Treehopper?

I intend to buy the cordless drill bit for presets, but for 'non-preset' hunting, is the mini a better option vs the full size drill? Or does the extra 3/4" of length make a profound difference with drilling?

My hunch says get the mini...

I have the mini and I love it I don’t see what the extra 3/4” adds...I actually run in to clearance issue with my lineman’s belt at times...but I assume that’s user error

Mini

Couldn't wait, went with the mini and a bag of bolts. Got the cordless drill bit coming too.

Every woodpecker in the swamps will be jealous of me soon...

Mini. Buy an extra drill bit as teh tip will eventualy wear out and you wont be able to get a tap.

Ive got two on the way actually to replace mine

Mini!!! No reason to order the regular, agree grab an extra bit

I ended up getting a cordless drill bit and the mini drill which comes with a bit installed along with a bag of 25ish bolts.
Mark lives close enough that I can hound him for other bits when that time comes.
Thanks for the recommendations - I am excited to get out there and locate some trees to preset.

Now, if I had more than only one trail camera...

You chose correctly, Treehoppah'.

The drill bit was a disaster for me, I could only get about 20 bolts before my 20V dewalt crapped out. I just use the hand drill now, it only takes but a minute
