OT: Wilson Boots

Have any of you ever worn any Wilson boots from Montana and are they worth the extra $$? I've read that some say they are what real working ranch cowboys wear......

Re: OT [rant] Walnut makes good firewood

I still cut and split my own firewood by hand with a axe and splitting axe. I have a couple fireplaces and I still like the look and sound and feel of natural wood burning fireplaces especially during the holidays. :)

Re: OT: Justin Boots

Justin ropers are a good choice... but some of the production has moved to Mexico and China. The roper style last is a good match for folks who walk more than they ride.... they caught on with calf ropers years ago... a sport that requires more "running" than riding. I like Olathe boots.....
