I hear you about lifting these things in and out of your truck. I guess it beats carrying them on your shoulder every where you go like I've been doing during the last year. My problem is that I want to bring all my favorite balls with me every time

Welcome to the site. You shouldn't feel much of anything except a slight heavy feeling on the fingers after the thumb comes out at the release point by the heel of your sliding foot.
