Speed for cutting tracks

Post by Bearkiller »

Obviously, unbroken fresh snow is pretty easy to cut tracks in but how fast can you guys cut tracks in older snow and feel pretty good you're not missing any? Somedays, like today, I felt like I was driving backwards as much as I was forward. I didn't seem to get much ground covered.
Don't buy the hype.

Well unless there is a dollar sign attached, slow down and enjoy the ride. You know you can learn about the country you are in just reading sign and everybody even guys named Van and Wade have driven over tracks. LOL!

Your always going to miss a few. I like to go slow because I don't like some one behind me paying better attention and catching cats I should of. If I'm on a highly hunted road. If I'm in a honey hole I like to go slow and look at the clock and remember what time I'm in each area. So I know how old the track is the next time around.
