Products spoke for themselves at the Wallisville run, i think i counted 3-4 stuck prodrives at one time and coe was doing circles around them.....Pro-drives are for crap on a hard sandy bottom, i cranked on one for about an hour before it finally came out, you can have them glorified outboards

lol easy there gater you are right but when i say hard sandy bottom i am talkin about like at the beach no mud just sand

meter ever been to the delta south atchafalaya river?

nope just south texas no mm then bays and tunnels , but where i am stuck at now lakes this weekend i ground off in reverse 40 yards 6" of water backwards no problem

Never had to be pulled out in the 6 years ive owned prodrives, so I guess it works for me. And ive never had to be pulled in.

Owen sounds like you know what you are doinini

yea your not always going to get stuck but if you hunt down here and want to get where noone else is you more then likely going to get stuck. tides a bi**h

i usally stay out of these matches , but do not understand the anger at the guy giving both pros, and cons he did not say the feller needed to buy a pd .

anyone with a little common sense can see that the skeg on a pd is thicker then the othere

yes i know about tides fished the coast for 20 some odd years but ya know them tides they come back in

no not all the time. hard north wind they take a while to come back.

ddm yer are truly right in that but yeah i can turn a key so i guess i have no way to go in my schooling but up

yeah garrett but they do come back like the ugly girl

take care gater

okay dont know of any either but they all have their quirks

ddm i like thiose oneida bows just got one

Dude if I tell you something you can bet your azz I will do it!! I don't have anything to loose or hide!!

tell ya what from all the postes on up grades it seems to be easyer on any other motor than a pd

Yall done got Terrys' blood pressure up

yep

Not even close!!

This forken wind got my blood pressure up!! Hope it dies for weekend!!

fukin lights just bounce right off that water, i know what ya mean

I am partial to PD. No, I am addicted to PD.

With that said, to try and add my $0.02 I am going to discuss some more unlikely situations that I have found myself in.

If wanting to do something like shrimping, GTR would probably be more beneficial. If wanting/having to truly dig out of a spot, FPR definitely worth the consideration.

I have driven up cuts on shallow sandy bottoms, running over small cypress trees all the way in, just pushing them over by riding up with the bow...problem was on the way out, they were so thick, they blocked me in by building a "wall" of trees against the transom. After a little throttling, the FPR shot the trees out the side of the boat, cutting them clean off below the waterline. They were roughly 4 feet high and 2-4 inches in diameter at the point of contact with the prop.

See below for what you can expect from FPR. I Helped a fella out last weekend with a spot behind his house...If you look, you can see how much was cut down by using the topsoil pile in the latter pics and the crooked tree in the first couple for comparisons.

Of course, if you wait long enough, rumor has it MB will have something to offer too...
but that is a whole different post that you can read if you'd like.

As for now, take a good long run in both the GTR and PDl if the option presents itself and as others have said, regardless of choice, you will have a blast!
