Location: madison wisconsin | I recently purchased a new pacemaker and two stillwaters and need some help. The pacemaker was $25 and the stillwaters were $20. I think I might have got the new plastic ones instead of the wood ones. I was hoping to get the wood ones cause I heard that they were stop making the them. I picked it up and it felt fairly light, so my question is how can you tell? The older wood kind I think ran around $30 so I think I might have got the new kind. Any suggestions?
If so, oh well...... |

Location: Musky Tackle Online, MN | There was no price change when Ty went from wood to plastic on the Pacemakers. The plastic ones have a different look. It has a "meaner" look. Kind of an indentation where the eyes are and the top of the head. The ones I have weighed were no different in weight from wood to plastic either.

Location: nationwide | I believe all Stillwaters are wood. The plastic Pacemakers have a dent right behind the eyes on the top. The wood bodied Pacemakers are completely round with no cutouts for the eyes or dent on top of the head.
Hopefully this makes sense.
