    ATV

    A SxS is definitely better than an ATV but if going with an ATV I'd look at the Honda Rancher with the auto transmission, independent rear suspension, and power steering. We've had one for 12 yrs and although it doesn't get allot of use now it's been a good rig. We priced a new one last year...

    Marijuana

    I got sick with a bad stomach issue last year and didn’t eat anything for around 14 days. Once I started eating again I ate 2 eggs for breakfast and homemade chicken noodle soup for supper for a week. My first real meal was a ribeye and I couldn't believe how it made me feel. Felt like my body...

    Marijuana

    Yes, it seems like people love it. Not sure I could do it long term but think I'd hang in there a month or two to see if I felt better. I'm not a heavy drinker but do like to have a few a couple times a week so that wouldn't be a killer. Vegan on the other hand can't be good for you. I don’t see...

    Marijuana

    I've been thinking about trying the carnivore diet out for 30 days so been doing some reading up on it. One of the deals that's debated is alcohol consumption. I read several takes on this but the best one was that alcohol lowers your inhibitions which in turn impares judgment and makes it...

    Marijuana

    If they get caught they lose their job if they take the test they lose their job. Why not risk being caught. It's all a big mess.

    Marijuana

    If Marijuana is legal can employers still say No Marijuana use? I'd hate to have a coworker even slightly high in my line of work. I've never used Marijuana so don't know anything about the after effects. I do drink but rarely if ever go into work fuzzy headed from the night before. Making...

    Can't catch a break

    When they handed me the new glasses for the first time I put them on and kinda felt drunk. I told the lady I wasn't sure I could wear them so she took them to the back to make an adjustment. After several times back and forth they got better. She said they were sitting wrong so I was looking...

    Can't catch a break

    I just went back to reread this thread and saw the part about bifocals, they very well could have caused the fall. I finally got glasses about a year and a half ago and got progressive lenses. Most people say they make them dizzy at first and they have trouble walking if they look down. I...

    COOL passed?

    I tried to link the article but couldn't. Says the law goes into effect January 1st 2026. I'm really happy this finally passed and think it will somewhat help the cattle raisers. I'd guess the majority of beef bought in a grocery store is a product of the US Anyway though.

    COOL passed?

    I read tonight that a bill passed saying all beef labled Product of USA had to be born and raised in the USA. Did I read this right? The article said Mexico was very upset and worried about this.

    Yesteryear Cowboys

    Neighbor rode bulls for 20yrs. He's got a 95 black Dodge dually regular cab 2 wheel drive with a 12v Cummins he just got running again. Says it was the rodeo rig and he'll never sell it. It's funny because when he got it fixed up and running good he drove it allot then stopped. He said it only...

    Yesteryear Cowboys

    That's a good story. I had the grandkids in the feed truck with me today, all 3 of us crammed in the front seat. I told them all the old cowboys( these guys are my age) that work cows for us used to travel to Arizona, New Mexico, Kanasas or wherever a rodeo was crammed up like this because...

    Hay feeder mess?

    I read so many articles saying that a hay barn was the #1 investment you could make on a Farm/Ranch that we built one even though we couldn't really afford it at the time. We decided to add lean toos on two sides for equipment storage while we were building it. I think we built it 7 yrs ago and...

    Hay feeder mess?

    Plus you can get a bale bed and feed with the truck which is a big time saver.

    Hay feeder mess?

    We store our hay in a barn and unroll 99% of the time. I say 99% because if its raining we unroll half the bale instead of the intire roll. I'd say we have less tha 5% hay loss. We have found that unrolling only works if you have enough cows to eat what you unroll. Unrolling a 1,100# bale to 15...

    Bass Reeves

    I work and do most of my business in Paris,Tx. I've never felt threatened or unsafe. Paris doe's get a bad wrap for crime and racism though. Not sure why, I've been here 30 yrs now and just don't see it.

    Freeze Proof Waterer

    That's it. Thanks. I'd like to build a couple. We only have to break water maybe 10 or so times a year but I also get forced in to work 12 hr shifts during freezing weather. Makes for a long day. I was planning on putting in a couple concrete waterers this year but this may be better.

    Freeze Proof Waterer

    A little while back someone posted a video of a freeze proof cattle waterer. It looked like a plastic culvert coming out of the ground and had a little roof with a sensor in it. I can't find it again. Any help?
