He went to express because they would work with him, not because it was better than Ranger.

I am sure Yamaha paid plenty to put him in the Skeeter as opposed to the Yamaha Xpress combination.

Skeeter Yamaha sponsorship pf BASS, christie winning all he did last year, it all points to this change.
There Is no way it wasn't about the money. But of course isn't everything they do at that level about the money
I can backlash toilet paper.

I'm sure he got tired of a jackhammer up his @ss as he rode across the lake I fish an Xpress and have for 12 years. I try not to go out when it’s crazy windy….. Couldn’t imagine being a pro and running that boat when it’s ride or die.
It's only a good cast if you catch a fish...

Just saw an instagram post of him backing his new Skeeter in the shop. Nice wrap.
