I just miss going into the gettin place and seeing a wall of blued, wood stocked, non threaded rifles on the wall.

Oh yeah, tires! Cooper stt (the original were great on small light pickups) the original BFG mt, but the stt mt’s were my favorite tires

Had a couple sets of the stt's. Never again. Fuckers always wore lumpy

Acorn kruncher, deer view mirror, cough silencer, and the butt out tool kept my freezers full for many a year.

If you've worn out your original Fart Baffler, I might still have some new/old stock from the old BowCountry days/daze.

Not sure where the hate comes from for the Loggy Bayou stands. Bought mine in 97. It had the whale tail notch, steel band with rubber sleeve. There were two long braces on the bottom side of the stand that extended to the bottom of the notch. Had pointed steel inserts made that dug in. Hard. The seat had three positions for tree lean. And when the over center buckle was closed. It was rock solid. Loved that stand. Folded down to about 6", weighed about 14lbs with the hand climber. Loved that stand. Had it set up in an oak, went to use it one afternoon in 2022, windstorm knocked another tree down and destroyed it. Was like losing an old friend.

Only took one ride on mine. Climbing a smooth bark tree after it rained. Tried to reposition, and it dropped about three feet. User error.

Loggy Bayou veteran here. Got in on the ground floor with them, or nearly: late 80's. Terry Bradshaw used to be in their magazine advertisements, LOL

My first LB climber was the best they made and my favorite climber by anyone before or since, bar none. Hunted the hell out of it until new Year's Day 2001, when it was stolen by a fellow sportsman before dawn. Drove a few miles home, swapped my rifle out for the 11-87, drove back and sat at the gate all day until a hour past dark waiting for that effer to come out with my stand on his back, but it never happened.

Loggy Bayou made some poor designs after the initial models, and some decent ones, but they never quite hit the same right notes as my first stand once they started tinkering.

If you know what you're looking for, you can find the good stuff used, and well-loved if not well cared-for.

On the better LBs, you shouldn't have a safety concern. With any climber, if you set up on a leaning tree or an icy tree, be careful!

They were soft, but they need to be on a light pickup, very few tires maintain traction after 50%, those did

I got more miles out of those than about any. A good comparison, Toyo mt, look new after a year, crazy slick on wet pavement. Any good tire for a full size truck sucks on a small truck

Non rotated Baja claws were lumpy

Was running them on a cherokee and a ranger.

I'll agree about the toyo's.

The key pad on F150 trucks, I believe this is gone on 25 forward models. Man I loved that feature. Going got miss is when it is time to get a new ride.

Why on earth would they change that? Best feature by far.

Strongbuilt Tripods. Specifically the Magnum Deluxe which they only made for like 2 years. My dad has one. It is absolutely the best bowhunting tripod ever made. big platform, 3 heavy duty square tube legs (including the ladder) attached with 3 bolts total. 12 foot eye level. Simply amazing especially when compared to this Muddy and Gamewinner trash that takes 200 nuts and bolts set up and is made of the thinnest metal possible.

Yep, every one of my old gas cans/jugs has one of these. I also have 3 or 4 of the VP racing jugs.

I tell this story a lot. I needed a new small jug for my yard stuff and I bought a new one with the spring loaded spout. I spilled more gas out of that thing in 1 year than my previous 50 combined (Thanks California). I threw it away and found these spouts for my old cans.
