I've always mounted my rod holders pretty far forward near my feet for stroke clearance on my paddlers and knee clearance on my peddlers. After reaching up that far to grab a rod in a holder, I don't have an additional foot or more of reach required to get the rod butt out and clear of the Powerlock or launcher type holders. I tried them all and settled on the Orca as the best for me since it just takes a short lift up to remove the rod. So, I'd say which holder is right for you depends on the mounting location and your reach.
