Picture an awesome video of my Father in Law's F150 dragging a chevy and a cow off a lake when the chebby got stuck...I forgot my phone...

I asked him what he was going to do with them, of course, butcher them because they were fresh kills. I asked for one...and got my beef. Unfortunately we got a call later in the night that we shouldn't use/eat the beef because it was vaccinated 9 days ago, and the vaccine calls for a 48 day waiting period before consuming vaccinated animals... BUMMER!!!!

Have a great day everyone!!
Bummer about the beef Sherm, we need to be getting another 1/2 soon ourselves. It went fast as we only got one deer last fall.

Morning fellas. For some reason it warmed up a little last night (weird), now is cooling off for the day. Looks like some parts of the province are in for a bit of snow this weekend.

We're pretty much in the same boat Collin. I didn't get drawn for moose or elk this year, we went for regular elk but didn't see anything. We sold a few chickens around Christmas time that now I'm wishing we hadn't. Hoping we have a line on a 1/4 of a Dexter steer, should hear today. I have a deer hanging in the barn from this season...been meaning to bring it in to thaw and de-bone but keep forgetting...

How'd the party go John? I haven't had a drink since Christmas... Got a bit laying around, but I'll leave it for thirsty company

Have a great Thursday everyone, damn, another week just about shot!!!

Not anymore. Little odds and ends popping up but no major projects until the snows off the ground, or close to it.
Sleddin with a Yami 4stroker like my lil Phazer 300+ kms wont cost me more than $40, fiddy with lunch somewhere.

Little purk in my step today!! Out installing a 4th wheel kit on my new Phazer along with some DuPont slides. Have two sets of 6" shapers coming from Royal, New Hindle full s/s exhaust installed, FX Shocks, SKid plate and SNOW ON THE WAY!!!! Finally!!!!!
Got a smoking deal on a pile of parts for the Phazer from my Dealer that closed up shop last year. They sold all remaining inventory. 150 got me over 800 worth of Yami stuff so I had to dip into the sled fund.
The guy I sold my 07 Phazer too, broke the pivot arm in the skid so I pulled, welded/gusseted the arm and re-installed yesterday. SHe was pretty cold out and my baby was in the mancave so no choice. Finger tips are still burnin At the end of the day, It was the right thing to do even tho it was a month after selling it. And i'd probably do it again cause that's just the way I roll

Have a great day folks!!!

btw John, she's lookin good!!

They closed up shop last spring. Sad to see them go, they were a good bunch there. Still have contact with all of them, which is nice. Manager is a mile away one way, mechanic is a mile the other way

Awesome Colin. Have a blast!!! You on Totally Yamaha 4Stroke site at all?

I've been tinkering with my new baby. No snow and everyones complaining (Fellow sledder buddies) and I've rolled over 1100kms already. Can't wait to get out with it now. Did some upgrades. Didn't need but with the last Phazer I just fueled and logged 11,000+kms in 3 seasons. So my sled fund has been really fun to invest in some aftermarket mods and upgrade some deficiancies Yami has. So far i've installed:
Hindle full stainless system (dyno'd 18cHp gain)probably the 1st one they ran off the production line. Ordered before it even went into production.
StudBoy Shaper Bars (6" inside and 6" outs)
Dupont sliders
Powermadd hand guards
From that Yami blow out sale:
GYTR Skid plate
Oil Lite bushing kit
4th wheel kit
After all that I bolted the 07 FX shocks back on and pulled the stabilizer. Did a little testing but that was right at the end of the snow. By that time I did my 1st oil change, chain case oil and for an added 5hp some Decals!!
Saving up for some Elka shocks now and Frog SkinZ

Sorry, excited for some snow. This lack of doing what I love is killin the brain, never mind a new toy to play with.

Gave a Brap-tastic day everyone!!

Morning fellas... 2" of snow overnight here...more to come all weekend. They're saying up to 30 cms over the weekend depending on which station you tune in to.

Curtis, can't believe you're spending so much money on a Phazer...what would your mother say??? Just kidding of course. Everyone needs a release!!

John, good that the party was short lived...that way the kids avoided you going Indian on them once the fire water kicked in (n/o)

Have a great day everyone!! Its Friday!!!!!

On edit, just had a text from my family back east. They had 16" of snow over night...

It seems like alot agreed. Pipe was the big treat. The deal I got on all the other stuff was part of that sell out. I paid 1/8th the price so mumma was actually amazed I brought stuff home that's "On Sale" . Usually when I go grocery shopping is when I get in the most trouble

It looks like we got about 2'' so far, more in the forecast but as long as the wind doesn`t go crazy I`m not worried since now the sun is out.
