    How'd it go today?

    Hoyt alpha x. I shot a Matthew’s ( can’t remember the model) and for me it wasn’t a good fit for me. I must’ve shot 100 arrows between the six bows I tried and then tuning this one.

    How'd it go today?

    Used to be. Poison ivy was the trademarked name Sherrill had. Now I believe Sampson makes the poison ivy rope. But yes, I love my Yale 11.7 ropes. Quick break from MIL. Outside burning the paper from all the stuff she brought

    How'd it go today?

    I beat the hell out of stable braid. I for years have said that Samson for my rigging and I trust Tom Yale with my life. Mostly climb on blue moon or it’s equal Today was another great day of not being at work. Woke up at 4:30 to meet the group at 5:30 for a work out. It was good for me. Then I...

    How'd it go today?

    I made it to the end of the week without completely losing it. Today was a challenge. I’m off for two weeks. Two guys were warned to get their heads together for when I come back or life is gonna suck. Company Christmas party once again is on “festivus”. A few of the guys are going to stop...

    How'd it go today?

    Mud season is back. We drove in fine. Played hop scotch with 24 mats 6 times to get out at the end of the day. I don’t enjoy the cold but I just wish it would show up and stick around till the end of march. I just have to with stand the BS till Friday. After that I’m off for two weeks. Hopefully...

    We were too far away to use the jib. Maybe we could’ve but never even checked the charts. And I don’t carry a jib on my crane. It does affect capacities having it stowed.

    One would think. I’m going to agree with @SeanKroll and listen to huberman on this.

    The class wasn’t that hard but I’ve had a lot of operating experience for other machines and I was the go to “rigger” for the crane op when I was in construction. @lumberjack chart is not favorable at 100’ but better than the 38/127. He has a jib but at that radius it’s no advantage. Jibs...

    Exercise

    I still feel I should do it everyday. I’ve been slacking on it lately and I’m mad at myself for it. At the least I splash my face in it every morning. It’s amazing the wake up just that brings. The sauna is on my list to acquire. I can’t remember the company name but they have the “Eddie” and...

    I’ve also heard to choke it down tight and try to schedule this for right before bed time

    Exercise

    ...almost two years now. Lately I’ve been slacking a lot which I’m not proud of. You would think that’s it’s not a big deal to get into that water (43*F today) after doing it for so long. I haven’t been in there for 4 days and I’m terrified. I’ve been in my garage putting it off for hours. I...

    Absolutely. I like the length of boom. He has three 38 tons with the same length but capacity goes way down. The 40 ton grove actually has higher capacity at around 70’ radius because there is one less boom section to account for. I would be happy with this crane being the one I use. Rick is my...

    Exercise

    I haven’t really made it a point to eat more protein. I do eat my three eggs most mornings though. Mostly I’ve just been cutting out as much processed and ultra processed as possible.

    Exercise

    The gym I do BJJ at is holding an adult fit class and this is what we did a few weeks ago. Mostly body weight stuff with some kettlebells. Doesn’t look like much till one actually does this. 30-60 second rest between rounds. After three weeks of these types of workouts I can say that I feel...

    We were a bit stretched out yesterday. Trees were tall and crane was set up downhill. This pic was taken after I had negative rigged the top and then attached the crane to it to fly it away. Makes for a long day when the highest we were good for was 3800#’s.
