    Like they say s==t happens. Glad you were dressed for the occasion.
    I will be honest with everyone in saying that I did not wear them all the time when cutting but have since changed my tune and now it has become habit to put them on thanks to everyone here in helping me do so. There was a picture of me posted here with no chaps and there were a lot of comments " Where are your chaps " , " No PPE" ? and this was a good wake up call to me, so thanks to everyone here for that.
    Yeah they can seem a bit bulky at first but after a short time you just get used to it. They also help keep my jeans from getting trashed and protect from brush.

    Go out and treat yourself to a new pair and keep the old ones for working around the splitter , they are also great for that and help in making the pants last longer if you are kneeling or carrying rounds.

    Glad you are OK and thanks for posting as a reminder to all of us.

    PPE is always less expensive than the co-pay on your insurance.
