I hit a tree and bent the cross piece just above my winch. I'm looking for opinions on which bumpers are best. I'm looking for a tough well built bush guards or front bumpers.

Thanks for looking at my post, and look forward to hearing from you guys.

Which Grizzly?

If it is for the 700, there are a couple threads found in the FAQ about front and rear bumpers available for the 700 ('07-'15). The disappointing part of those threads is from the PB fiasco, the pictures don't show up anymore. But, the bumpers are still listed there for a start to do some research. I included the rear bumper thread too in the event you want matching front/rear.

X2 on Moose being the best looking IMO that's why I bought them but they are definitely not the strongest but I don't plan on pushing any trees over I usually try to go around them.

I had the Moose front and rear on my '10. I really liked them and despite reports it's not the strongest, it took a very hard direct hit on the front right when I rolled my Griz. It did push it in a bit but it saved me costly repairs to the front right corner of my machine. It was easily pulled back out later and looked perfectly normal.

My vote is for Moose but consider future mods. Where I mounted my 12" light bar on my '14, I can't use the Moose front bumper. The top bar would block the light as you can see.

I have been thinking about bumpers as well. My hunting trails are pretty tight, and it doesn't take much of a mistake to run into a tree. I did that once and had to replace my front grille. I like the looks of the Moose brand, and also the Super ATV brand looks good in the photos anyway, and the price is a little easier to swallow. Good luck!

Been running the Yamaha HD bumper on my Grizz since I got it. Tough bumper no issues knocking down brush as I bushwhack quite a bit where I ride and hunt. Hit something a few times that I thought would do some damage but nearly even a scratch. Maybe not the best looking bumpers but I like how they look and that it is full replacement.
