Challenger Marsh Master from South Georgia Outdoors in Cario.
Go see Heath, he'll set you up right.

Try the TGX series made by Challenger. I like the TGX better than the Marshmaster.
Call SGO and talk directly with Heath.

They are some pretty good folks there, just don't pay any attention to the hold music.

I don't know of anybody in Bainbridge.

on stopping back by......Give Heath another chance to make it right....and give him hell for not having what you were looking for to begin with.
