Same as I've always done. Maybe the OP just wants to hire a great installer from a great forum who will do an honorable job.

No thanks. I love doing work for guys that want to "supply" the material and "just need labor". You want a professional job for an illegal price. Good luck. Pound sand.

Trying to bring white tanks deer herd back.

Awesome! They are all hers. I work in the airpark area if you want to meet tomorrow. My phone number is at the top of this listing if you want to send me a text to figure out when we can meet.

Alright no more price drops. I would rather give these away to a young hunter. Anyone have a kid that is getting up in the hills and would put these to use?! I am located in Scottsdale but will be driving through Prescott and Chino tomorrow evening.

Thank you Cp and other common sense posters. The rest of you Wow....You guys are really something. I am thinking about doing the job myself but was wondering if there is a good guy who works for a bigger firm that wanted to do a side job for good fair money. Maybe I’d lend a hand. Deliver material for him. Handle clean up too. Probably pay more than their bosses pay them factoring in the margin stacking for their cut off the top Win win I already have contractor pricing lined up for the material. I just got done building a pool with all the fixings. The guys I worked with and the competition I evaluated all passed through material prices at cost. Everyone knows folks have hookups for material pricing. It’s not a differentiating factor anymore. They made their money on the installs. Everyone was pretty satisfied with the transaction. Win win You guys need to get to get a life. This is right up there with dissing some guys price on something he’s trying to sell in the classifieds. If you’re not interested keep your mouth shut and move on. If you can find a sucker to pay you 100% mark up on materials all the power to you but you’re barking up the wrong tree here buddy. I appreciate those of you who have who made supporting comments. The rest of you really need to do some self reflection I’ve never created any conflict or issues on this site

Just ran across this today and I feel your sense of lose I just lost my 38 year old daughter to cancer on February 24, 2019. I have the same feeling you have and I ran across this and it really makes sense out of why we feel this way during the loose of a close loved one. I hope this helps you and anyone else that reads this and going through a similar situation. It sure has for me at leas. First time uploading on here so I hope it works

Yep, The cheapest guy is never the right guy!

So, no fake turf installers😏

I’d take them for my son but I already have some so good luck to the next kid! Nice to see it paid forward.

As a pool repair and maintenance business owner of 13 years, there is no doubt in truth to what has been said, but OP never said how much he was willing to pay for the experienced labor, what he drives, or how he is getting his material and why he is choosing his route. Some on this forum sure make a lot of assumptions.

Little do people know that installers get the material waaay cheaper than the homeowners. After markup, it is usually dang near a wash. Good luck. Most home depot’s have cut rate installers at a cut rate price.

Tough crowd, agreed..

Nobody wants to pay extra for bad news.

Yup. We do landscape design and construction. Everything but pools.

YES!!!!!! Though I do like my bucks like my women.......a bit on the trashy side.

Pretty easy to break the law with these without a ham license but they are an awesome cheap radio. Also, I might add, pretty easy to break the law with a ham license.

For many years I wore the Rattlers style gaiters. They were hot but you get used to it. I can vouch that they 100% work though. I mostly wore them while dove and quail hunting for the cholla, but I did get to "test" them with a live rattler. I would buy the Turtle Skinz though if I was to wear them on a long hunt or all day. Just spendy.

I have Turtle Skin gaiters...they are very good. Even had a large rattlesnake bump into them in tall grass. He wasn't striking but he was coming through the super thick tall sacaton grass at about knee level!! Guy walking behind me saw it's head hit my gaiter! They are tan on one side and camo on the other, so you might like the camo on a hunt. Well made and easy to zip on and off https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ITZDLC2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Do you have your ham license or just roll the dice? 4 watts beats the heck out of .5

Waiting for the season to start... I saw Bryans post on his great buck. Bryan had me mount it for him. Whopper. Ed F

If Mr. Gallo had come on here with an alias username saying he had a strip tag and was thinking of doing a DIY hunt, he would have gotten 86 responses and 85 of them would have been which guide he should hire and how he shouldn’t squander that tag without getting a guide, how big the strip is and how there aren’t giant bucks around every corner. Now for some reason he gets flamed for hiring a guide....

I’ve had a 2012, 2014 and now a 2017 F150 with 3.5 eco boost. All have been excellent rigs. I’ve taken them all three to 99,000 miles and traded. They’ve all been identical, long bed, crew cab XLT with max tow package, 3.55 rear end, locking rear diff and the 40,20,40 bench in front. I search them out exactly like that. The newest has a 10 speed in it which I do like. They get decent mileage. 20-22 if it’s flat and not windy and you drive under 70. It goes out the window fast if you are pulling, bucking wind, or climbing, but so do most rigs with the exception of diesels. Make sure you get the 36 gallon gas tank. These things pull unlike any gas I’ve ever driven imcluding my dad v10 f250. They do LOVE the gas though when pulling. Mine will pull my 8000 pound corn planter on a 4500# deck over flatbed down the interstate at 75 without hardly shifting on the inclines,but it’ll get about 5-7 mpg doing it. I pull about 5-10% of my miles max, I could easily justify a diesel considering I’m pulling more then a majority of people, but the cost of purchase, ownership, rough ride, smelling up my garage, and cost of diesel keep me from doing it. I absolutely love my exoboosts. I’ve paid between $34k-$37k and gotten $19k-24k on them on trade with 99k miles. That works out to about $0.15 a mile for driving a brand new pickup every two years. I have yet to figure out a cheaper route to go considering the miles I put on. Take the factory rubber off before you leave the lot, the Goodyear wranglers they put on them are absolute garbage.

F-150 with EcoBoost get the 373 gear ratio if you are planning on towing heavy and get the locking rear differential
