    Another Back Issues Thread

    I also had a Microdiscectomy at 44 and that was exactly one year ago and my life got drastically better. I couldn't stand up straight and walk as it was pressuring the Sciatic nerve. My wife stayed on my ass about what I was doing, and I didn't overdo it, and still to this day watch what I do...

    Found this near my mailbox out by the road.

    I use one just like it quite a lot, I use it to take composite soil samples. Here we sample down to 5"s or so and the cutout on the side is used to help eject the dirt into the sample bag. I could see using one to get a shallow soil profile core, where there is lots of topsoil, but it is...

    The Outboard Church

    That's an awesome video. I love how the rivers look out west. I want to take my girls 5 & 7 years old out there and let them see how different it is than here. Oh and that sled is a bad bitch!!!! There is absolutely nothing like that running around BFE Arkansas. Hopefully in 20 years or so I...

    250 EFI merc 3.0 options?

    What is the difference between the 250 efi and the 250 Pro XB? I thought rhe XB was right at 300 HP but was rated at 250 because of the BASS tournament restrictions. I have a 225 EFI and was told to put a 250XB fuel tune and 300 Ignition and it would essentially be a 250xb other than I think the...

    Just Having Extra330 Fun!

    Hey I appreciate the heck out of that, but probably a little far as I am in Northeast Arkansas. I have a guy local that told me he would let me tie in to his box to help me, to only find out he was a tightass and would take over just to burn my fuel. I joined a club but it was 2 hours away and...

    Just Having Extra330 Fun!

    I started trying to learn with a cheapo Nitro Alpha trainer and I finally had so much extra balsa glued to it from crashing that it was 2 times heavier than it started. I tried everything I could to learn that thing and just couldn't get it. I have since got my Private Pilot license and in my...

    Just Having Extra330 Fun!

    The Air-Tractors here use regular oil pumped with a 12 volt pump and a nozzle into the turbine exhaust. or I should say the ones I know do.

    Georgia visitors

    I actually think it was a thread that a member took a trip out to Nashville/Knoxville and looked at a possible move or did move. I believe he was showing pics of a few houses on the market that he was looking at. Maybe search moving to Tennessee or Nashville, there was aslo one that his parents...

    Bow hunters....

    That Triax is a bad machine. Very quiet and smooth draw, while still being fairly quick. I would love to have one, as I fell in lust the first time I shot it. I currently shoot a mathews z7 extreme and it is the only other bow that lit me up like the Triax. My bow is old and outdated by archery...

    Sunrise over the Mississippi River

    Yea Beale is definitely different, I am personally not a big fan. We usually stay at the Wyndham which is 1/2 block south and watch the shit show. We eat at Blues City and Dyers burgers some, but usually get away from that area. I live about 45 minutes Northwest in Arkansas and travel there...

    farmers, ranchers, and orchardists, how many and what do you produce

    Not a farmer, but do consulting and sales for a Global Ag input supplier. My specialty is Rice, but also consult on soybeans, wheat, corn, peanuts, and the occasional pasture and grain sorghum. I always wanted to farm for myself, but its hard in our area to break into because the big operations...

    Chip for Gas Truck?

    I am running an 18 2500HD with 6.0 gas and I have 35x12.50s with just a leveling kit and I am lucky to get 11mpg. But in all honesty I drive like a teenager everywhere I go. I don't know how much a tune would help me.

    Watch your 4 legged kids please.

    Thanks everyone, I called this morning and he made it another night, and they said he was trying to be a bit more active. I think we are good but man what a scare. I think what upsets me the most is him not being here. I work in agri and he goes everywhere with me everyday.

    Watch your 4 legged kids please.

    I had to check some wheat yesterday, and as usual our Lab Noxx accompanied me as he does every day. We have had a lot of rain recently and the woods and thickets have been flooded and has pushed all sorts of animals to the edges. Also yesterday it was sunny and somewhat warm. Noxx has been...

    225 EFI gauge questions

    Ok guys I bought a Boat that I have been steadily fixing and making my own and am now down to the last few steps and looking for some guidance. I had the boat at a shop that specialized in Gel and interior rebuilds, and about 1/2 way through the Meth gods smiled on my man, and after a year of...
