Don't go in deep mud with them.

I was out at a TORR near Huntsville on Saturday and a guy drove up to us and asked if we could come pull his rzr out. They had gotten a four wheeler and rzr 1000 stuck in a trail. We got the 4wheeler out but after ~2hrs we had to leave his rzr in the mud. The mud had so much suction we never moved it an inch and he couldn't even start to spin a tire.

I would not recommend going to TORR either unless you like mud parks. Our group doesn't like getting in the mud and we probably won't be back.

No winch? Rookies! a good solid winch and a snatch block and they could have been out of that in less than 10 minutes. Way too many large trees around for them to be stuck. Seems to me that you can have any toy you want, just can't be the biggest without adequate emergency equipment... aka, winch.


You should give some serious thought to thanking your lucky stars your from Texas.

Not quite. We had a Warn M8000 and the biggest snatch block warn makes and couldn't budge it. Tried pulling it from the back multiple ways with no luck. We really needed to pull off the front end but he had nothing to winch from in the front.

They weren't very prepared and prolly could've got out by immediately winching if they had one. By the time we got there it was hopeless
