re: Bad Boy Bandit

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 5/5/24 at 10:06 am
The Polaris is what I was looking at originally but the cost of one is through the roof. I will say I haven’t made it to the point of going to look at them, but building one on the Polaris site was a little over $20K. ...

Wonder how they’d do when crossing fallen logs? Would they give enough to hinder climbing the log? Bet the ride would be really good though. ...

Bad Boy Bandit

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 5/4/24 at 7:59 pm
I have a buddy of mine that sells multiple lawn mower brands including Bad Boy. He recently got in several Bad Boy Bandit’s in both the 550 and 750 models. Anyone here know anything about them? He was saying how nice they were but he’s also a salesman. I didn’t know they had ventured into the side ...

re: Bussey brake trip

Went this past Tuesday. At 8am there were 35 vehicles parked in the parking lot with three more launching with us. After we launched we stopped counting when we hit 20 more boats launching. We fished the submerged trees/brush in 4-6 feet of water with not much luck. Ended up turning on LiveScope...
You must have your pants special made to be able to wear them. ...

Tanks said they had known each other forever and were friends. No matter it showed respect to me as well. WF’s catcher was also out there. Not sure if he was congratulating Tanks also but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt thats why he was there. ...

re: Venom Power Tires

I concur with them not balancing. I have a set on my company vehicle. Problem is they won’t wear out so I can get them replaced. Anything above 45mph is horrible. ...
I live in Red River parish. If it’s a decent amount of acreage you need to wait a couple of months before checking it out. It’ll be mowed with feeders and stands on it and you won’t have to do anything but go hunt. ...
You don’t want to walk anywhere in that part of Shreveport. You’ll have to go to either the east side of Shreveport around Line Avenue or Bossier. Still not a bad drive except for the pieces of your vehicle you’ll be missing from driving that section of I-20 or 3132. ...
Thanks! I actually found one in Keatchi at DeSoto Pawn and Gun. Bought the last CVA they had. Sighting it in today after work ...
Good luck. I’ve been looking for a 350 Legend and can’t find one near Shreveport/Bossier. I have a couple of places to check back with tomorrow and other than that it’s order one online and ship to an FFL. The 45-70, 444 and 35 Whelan seem to be a little easier to find but by no means abundant. ...

re: need stock for a barreled action

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 10/14/22 at 11:26 pm
I second checking out Stocky’s Stocks. I bought house brand from them for around $225 as a make do stock until I decided what I wanted. It’s now been on the rifle for three years and I’m not changing it. Sanded the barrel channel and glass bedded it and it’s one of the best feeling stocks I’ve ever ...
I was just giving reference to what I was getting, not insinuating to by something else. I do like the Ram a lot. Ride is amazing for a 3/4 ton and the interior is really nice. It tows different than a Powerstroke but that’s because the power bands are different. My F-250 was nice also and had no co...
I had a 19 F-250 and averaged 14mpg. Now have a 22 Ram 2500 and average 17mpg. I know there are tuners for a Ram that does not involve removing emissions so that in states that require testing the vehicle still passes. From reviews I’ve read there are good power and fuel mileage gains. Not sure if t...

re: Looking into my first camper

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 8/16/22 at 6:37 pm
If you end up with a bigger camper air bags are nice. They greatly improve the handling and driving of the vehicle when towing. For kids we love our front and rear bedrooms. Ours has a single bed and bunks in the rear with a full bathroom. They can play all night and not keep us up, plus with a rear...

re: Mounting outdoor fan

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 7/16/22 at 6:23 pm
I had a buddy of mine that has a welding shop build me brackets out of 1” flat bar that wraps around my posts on the porch. Also made the fan bracket separate so there was adjustability. This eliminates vibration wallowing out lag bolts/screws and also allowed them to be mounted without having to dr...
I buy my replacement cables at Bearing Service & Supply. My local NAPA also carries them. If you take one off at a time and replace you can’t mess it up. Very easy and will take five minutes.....

re: Pool Maintenance

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 5/15/22 at 2:34 am
We have a gunite pool with quartzite and do our own maintenance due to service availability where we live. It has been far easier than we thought. Our pool has an automatic chlorine dispenser at the pump that we put 3” tablets in and we can manually adjust how much chlorine is dispersed to the pool....
Mature old 6 point- .308 w/ 130gr TTSX Mature 9 point- .308 w/ 130gr TTSX These were the only two bucks that were on the hit list at the beginning of season and never had another mature buck show up. Killed the 6 point Nov. 3rd, killed the 9 point Dec. 18th. ...

re: Hunting and fishing by yourself

Posted by Tigerstro2 on 1/8/22 at 2:45 am
43 and do 95% of my hunting and fishing alone. It’s usually so hard to get schedules to align with my buddies due to work and family obligations that it’s just easier. Plus I enjoy the peace and quiet. I normally make sure people know the area I’ll be hunting in case something happens but other than...
