    Thank you for another great review! Maybe one day they will make it up this far, and I will get to try some. I will keep a buzzard eye out for them in my travels.

    Update Almost through the 1st bag ,
    As Steve said they seem to feed down the hopper real well ,not hanging up in the corners like some of the other softies I burned this year

    Not a lot of ash in the burn pot a bit more than yesterday ,but all the holes are still visible see pic.
    Great Heat it's 78* in the stove room with stove set on 4 and fan as low as it will go .
    I'm a fan of the softies now :thumbs: it's real nice to have the opportunity to burn them .
    No doubt that a ton or more of these will be in my stash for next season they are at a real sweet price ,I hope that Bucks Pellets can keep them there , I think you got a real winner here Joe.

    As always YMMV :D

    Thanks for the up date Ray , when I was cleaning the stove yesterday I remembered that Pete suggested to you about the furniture polish ,but I didn't have any so I improvised and used Armor All it seems to work .

    Now that is funny. Remember Doug says he doesn't set the price!

    Larry I don't know if he sets the price or not ,Let me re phrase that Doug or who ever sets the wholesale price ,then you have to factor in shipping cost ,and then the retailer puts his profit in that's what determines the price .
    I think the Oakie Gold come out of Georgia , the EZ Blaze Virginia ,IMO right from the get go EZ's cheaper to get to the market , retailer makes same margin ,we get a great pellet at a nice price . You know as consumers we vote with our wallets , it's competition ,which is good for us :D

    Again just my thoughts ,shoot a hole in it if anybody has any other takes on this .

    I would love to buy ez blaze, haven't seen them up here, but never know. I didn't anticipate getting blazers for $4.38 but HD brought them in and thanks to sub's alert, I was able to jump on them and got four tons. These are really good pellets. The okie's are very good, the price point is too rich for me. Pellets that give 10% more heat are no bargain when they cost a third more. One more reason why I have a Harman. I can be picky because my stove is not. Thanks for the tip on EZ Blaze. Another one I'll know to keep an eye open for.

    Is that an improvement or a pre treat pic? I still have a little "hanger" spot but I'm going to deplete the hopper & treat it.. Armor all? Any adverse scent when heated? None with the behold.
