About Us

Backwater Hunting at its Best

Mud Buddy Manufacturing is located near the Great Salt Lake of Utah, where endless shallow water marshes attract vast amounts of waterfowl of the Pacific Flyway. Mud Buddy has strived for over 25 years to be the best.

Mud Buddy was founded by inventor Glenn Foreman in June 1994. Glenn’s goal has always been to provide higher quality, higher horsepower shallow water mud motors for sportsmen.

Today, Mud Buddy is the world’s largest mud motor company with more Longtail and Short Tail Surface Drive Mud Motors than all other mud motor companies combined.
