Was chatting with an old timer at the supply yard in Birmingham last Friday
He said something about how he runs his outriggers on soft ground that got me thinking. I always just throw down the pads and hope for the best, but he said he spends 15 minutes checking every spot with a probe first. Said he learned that after a tip in the 90s that almost killed his partner. I don't know, maybe it's just me but I never really thought that deep about it. You guys do any extra ground checking before setting up?

Nobody probes anymore, everyone just rushes through EVERYTHING now it seems.

Nobody probes anymore" - that's pretty spot on actually. What makes you think people stopped digging deeper into things? I feel like everyone's just chasing the next dopamine hit instead of sitting with a problem and understanding it.
