Hey there, I’m Kent, the guy behind The Techy Country Boy.

I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years:
Military vet.
18+ years in air traffic control.
Blue-collar trades.
Full-time caregiver for someone I love.
And now? Part-time tech nerd with a strong opinion and a weak tolerance for crap products.
I built this site because I got tired of sifting through fake reviews, influencer hype, and junk gear that looks good on a screen but falls apart in your hand. I’m a research fanatic. I spend hours trying to find the most information I can on pretty much every product I plan on buying. Around here, we value function over fluff, gear that actually works, tech that makes sense, and tools that don’t need a 20-page manual to turn on.
Whether I’m reviewing something because it solved a real-world problem (like ergonomic tools for chronic pain) or just because I couldn’t help myself from testing the “latest and greatest,” you’ll always get the same thing from me:
No fluff. No fake. Just what works and what doesn’t.
I’m not a “tech bro” in a hoodie. I’m the guy who does the research and reads the manual so you don’t have to, then tells you whether it’s worth your time or not.
So, if you like your reviews blunt and honest and your advice from someone who’s actually used the stuff, welcome.
You’re in the right place.
