Post Prop help
I am in the process of getting a prop built for my go-devil, I now run a 10x6.
I'm wondering if I would be better off droppin 1in in diameter an go up on the pitch or raise the diameter 1in an go down on the pitch?

Diameter would prolly do better in mud for more grab but a smaller/ more pitch may spin more rpm's dependin on how much more pitch.

Keep in mind I live north of I-10

What rpm's are you turning? Why do you think you need more pitch?
