Default Aftermarket Chokes????

I was looking at the Kicks High Flyer choke tube and it looks pretty legit but I'm not sure how much of a difference aftermarket chokes make.
Any of you guys that use them tell me how you like them and what kind you have.

Thanks

I second the Carlsons, actually they are the only choke tubes I buy now. With my shotguns modern and muzzleloading, the patterns are way better then what came with the guns.

No experience myself but my waterfowling buddy says kicks are good but patternmaster is better. Of course the price goes up for the patternmaster.

i think aftermarket chokes make a heck of a difference, but once you get into all that you need to look at where most of your shots are and choose a choke that can help you with your shots, patternmaster has chokes for short, mid, long, and extended for 3 1/2's, i use an extended because i shoot 3 1/2's and i use their full choke for black cloud ammo too.

So does Carlson for 1/4 of the price.
