I prefer carhart tan color in the fall if gun deer hunting on the ground or in a tree. I don't think it matters that much really. Just avoid straight line shade changes like where your orange vest zips up the front. If behind it is black and you don't keep it zipped that's not good. Shuttle shade changes. I also prefer a Boonie hat. Deer identify head shapes, the boonie hat breaks it up. I'll sometimes sit at the base of a tree in all light tan and noticed no difference. If your not moving I'd swear its your head shape they pick out. Depending on the angle the deer approach you you head shape might be a shiny bobber to the sky if there's nothing to break it up behind you.

Shot sporting clays for the 1st time in my life at Hill N Dale, Medina, last week, 68 out of 100, and this week Upland Valley, Carrollton, 31 out of 50. I suck, but it's fun. Beats golfing any day.

I can't wait for corn fields to be replaced with pot fields and high security fencing.

Should have took it back. I made that mistake with a cub weed wackier tat only runs on choke. 1 week turned into 3 months and too late to return. I think Poulan Pro is the budget version of Husqvarna. There were some 1 or 2 series Huskys that are the same Poulan. Or vice versa since Husqvarna own Poulan and some others.

Stihls a serious saw no doubt. If I was in the cutting business I'm guessing that's what I'd have. I don't really find many factual claims to there dependability vs. certain saws that costs a 1/3 less. I'm guessing because they lack hour meters. I'd assume the type of piston sleeve or cylinder material, crankshaft and motor housing materials are important to longevity and ease/affordability of rebuilding. I have a fairly expensive shotgun, it's no more reliable than a $300 gun. Most people who pay big bucks for something will heavely base their opinion on cost, because otherwise they're foolish for paying so much.Most of chainsaw reviews are a joke online. It's upsetting. They point out where the on/off switch is, it has a chain brake, choke, has low emissions, the guy put 4 hours on it, watch me cut wood, o yay. seldom do they talk what matters, like what are huskys xtorq motor materials, so far it has a forged crank. This type of marketing really bugs me. Tell me the real facts about your motors, do not keep harping on a brand name of the motor. Shit kills me.

I think Stihl only sells to brick and mortar stores. I wonder what their profit levels are like. Wouldn't it be something if they cost the same to build as a Husky or Homelite.

I went with a Husqvarna 450 50.2cc. 455 56cc Rancher adds two pounds. Both with 20" bar but the 450's smaller motor keeps the weight down to around 11-12 pounds. My Husky 136 was 14" then 16", not really adequate for cutting the base of trees. I kept going back to the likes of the Echo CS-450 which I've used the last 3 weekends. I like it's rigid frame vs. the Husky 136 was flimsy meaning it flexed a lot between the right hand trigger handle and the left hand handle. I'm not sure why, it never broke and maybe it was designed that way with the anti-vibration design. The Echo CS-450's weight would be about the same as the Husky 450. You must be right about the 3/8" Oregon chain, this Echo has one and cuts a lots quicker vs. my old Husky (considering sharpened chains) although the Echo chain speed doesn't seem that fast. The weight seemed fine for 7 hour days on the Echo. I'm no lumber jack but I'm often having to cut a large amount of large trees and I can't see paying the big money for a Stihl when my last husky lasted 13 years, running what ever 2 cycle oil I had around, and with a 500ish hours and abuse. Refurbished Husqvarna 450 for $266, little cheaper than the Echo and if it lasts 13 years again, I'll be happy.

I really appreciate the offer. You're a bit far from me though.

I'd guess your husky had some sort of issue not common. Unless there's a major compression difference I can't see why the same fuel would make a difference between the two motors.

I'm looking for real life use opinions. Don't base your opinion on high costs must equal quality products and since I paid twice as much for my saw and use it 3 hours a year its better. A.K.A. Some Stihl folks. Consider the fuel/mix was always done properly and not a topic. Chains irrelevant. I have a Husqvarna 136 that is 13 years old, purchased new as a remanufactured, and probably saw roughly 35 hours a year usage. It's worn out now, low compression. Replaced parts were pull rope, filter, fuel hose, fuel filter, bar, carb rebuilt once. Spark plug "replace it replace it" topic is bunk, it's fine. Considering it has roughly 500 hrs, I think it's a reliable saw although I have nothing to compare it's time use against. A cylinder rebuild kit is $35 but this thing has been used and abused and I want bigger. I'm seeing differences in crank assemblies and looking at an Echo and have been borrowing one and like it but might just go with a Husqvarna again but in 50cc range as I want it bigger to handle a 20" bar.

Did the landowner suffer any losses from the trespassing jeep if it stayed or after it was towed.

Googled large white fuzzy mushroom and got links to Asian porn. :/

No........

I think they're photo bombing me.

Chopper spotter guy had to be media. He exaggerated a bit.

Maybe it's a magnet?

You did know me, back when you use to ride. Lol Sent your train bed on to 2 family members but no luck.

O wow. They are getting blasted, I'm surprised they haven't turned off the comment feature.

TB you is testy lately.

I love my Plow on a quad.

I've been stuck a lot in my life. Paid in beers and gratitude.

Does it come with Natural Ice?

You're doing it wrong.
