Default Private airport or small field for landout?

Having done both in my PW-5, I'd take the private airstrip every time.

The comments on runway width,especially in corn country, are valid.

However, you can probably stick a PW-5 in at about any private strip.

I use Google Earth to confirm private strips in my database whenever possible.
