I love your back yard too. Here is my buddy Greg on Last Dollar road.
Is that Greg Minor?

Those look like a slightly more aggressive Scorpion AT. I like it.
On the 950, the TKCs only lasted 2,200 miles of the TAT. Destroyed.
In my experience (and I am no expert at moto stuff), the front tire seems to be the key in the dirt. The knobbies I am running on the KTM now are so sure-footed in the dirt, both braking and turning. Serious confidence in soft/loose terrain. However, they are just too gnarly for the street/highway. A set of D606 would be better IMO.
The rears in that image are now toast. 850 miles
Scott you're right about the front tire. A nice street-trail compromise is to run a knobbie on the front and an AT tire on the rear if most of your off pavement riding is logging roads and such, but you run into looses surfaces and shallow sand. A tad more confidence inspiring.
