- Got a new Grapple yesterday for the RK 24. It's a RK by Top Dog 54" Grapple, they installed a new loader with the quick attach and third function valve. This subcompact RK 24 with the grapple will be very useful for trail maintenance, firewood and removing invasive species.
This Root Grapple will work well!

I really like the design of that grapple
A lot of odds and ends you got done today!!👍👊
It weighs 230 pounds. I have the same grapple. I use it every day and I use it hard and it has not had a single problem!
Mike is very gentle on his eguipment a lot can be learned from these videos
Hi Mike! I got the thumb on my backhoe and absolutely love it! I’m sure you will too! And I’m really excited about the grapple for the 24 also! I have been moving logs with our 24 and I’m anxious to see what it will pick up with the grapple! And for anyone wondering about the parts and service, RK tractor guy can help me out here but I am going to have to say that RK goes above and beyond to make sure (our) meaning every RK tractor customer is taken care of. I will update on the entire service experience when we get ours back.
All this AND the guy can juggle. A man of many talents. Sherman gets the nod from me.
Chestnut juggling! A man of many talents!
Mike, I've watch 2 of your videos in a row, and I must say, you have a clean, clear, no-nonsense delivery; your video production quality is also very good. Keep it up.
Mike, we knew that you could juggle lots of projects and tasks, but you can actually juggle. I'm impressed. Now I see how you got Melissa to notice you. I think I want some chestnut trees on my property. Have a productive day.
I just got a Mahindra 1538 with a root grapple and I urge everyone out there, if you don't have a grapple, get one NOW! It will change your life! Absolutely the best thing since fire!
Nice Equipment for the woods :)
A while ago you had a talk about gas cans . Well that one that you have in the back of the Polaris Ranger is the best gas can on the market . No need for a funnel ( unless you're putting fuel in your truck ) . You can look over top and see how much gas is going in a tank . No need for an air vent to open up . They come in 3 sizes . That small one I think is 1 1/2 gal , 2 1/2 gal and 5 gal . I get mine at a stihl dealership in the US . A bit pricey but worth every penny . I go camping near James Bay in Northern Ontario and I must have brought at least 20 of them for other campers who see me with them . It's can you get a few for me . LOL
Sherman!!! Can't wait to see the grapple in action, I plan to buy an RK24 next year.
Sherman sounds good the little tank that got the job done
The new grapple looks real good.....and I know you will put it to work....have a great weekend.
Good morning Mike. I can smell autumn in the air just by watching your video... nice!
I would suggest Sherman. 😊
Juggle family and work and chestnuts, what a talented guy. :-)
Man that mower is quick🙂
My vote is for Sherman. Red Bull would fit the RK 37 perfect. About the chestnuts, I'm noticing there are no acorns this year in CT, but plenty of hickory nuts. By the way just recently purchased an LS MT 125 recently so I got my own little toy to play with as well.
Sherman, cant wait to see what the little bugger does in the woods!
Sherman!!! Always impressed with what was accomplished with those little tanks.
I love the RK24 tractor I am going to purchase one for myself very soon I would love to see the controller that you used to open and close the grapple can't wait to see the video using it keep up the good work love your videos
Love your show...keep it coming.
Thanks for your video Mike, always look forward to each new one. Nice additions for the RK24 and I'll vote for Sherman also.
Been enjoying your channel for awhile now. And want to tell you that I purchased my first chain saw. I am about 10 years older than you and have been a little frighten of them. So now I can get at my 12 acres of woods, I n a conservational approach naturally.
That “Little Thang” is going to be awesome,in the woods now 👍🤠
I like Rudy. One of the greatest movies of all time. Just a little guy in a big guys world- holding his own- Just like the RK 24
Nice setup
Day so long weekend, enjoy it
I'm all in on buster
Red Bull , good stuff enjoyed that!!!
Sherman!! Can't wait to see it in action!
If the 24 is anything like my friends 26HP BX, then Sherman really is a fitting name.
With the way they designed the bottom of that new grapple, it almost appears that they could fit bucket teeth on the bottom teeth of the grapple and you could use it as a root rake a little more effectively with a wearable item you can replace. Further testing would be necessary, I would gladly help them out but I currently have no location to do such at.
Sherm
I would say RUDY. I actually met him when he gave a motivational talk at a sales meeting. Pretty cool guy.
Bob
Buster gets my vote.
I kinda like Sherman. As you said it is a little tank. When my budget will allow it i plan on getting one. The wife let me get a new John deere in April so i will wait a while before hitting her up for another new tractor. Take care.
Sherman - I like it! When you do the video can you give some commentary on your thoughts for blazing the new trail. It’s definitely something I will have to tackle on my property and I’m just not sure how to go about it.
MY MIDDLE NAME IS RUDY. LOVE YOUR TOYS. MAKES WORK LIKE PLAY.
Bustah!
Sherman T. Potter, Love It.
Love the Channel!! I like Buster.
Thumbs up
Hey check out the “Frost Bite”grapple It really works great on logs and surprisingly it also works on brush piles. Keep up the good work enjoy all of your videos. Chuck, Lawton Oklahoma
Sherman sounds like the way to go small and tuff.
This guy REALLY likes his camera time. Some good ole fashion get to the point would help here.
SHERMAN!!! 👍 Juggling 🤹♀️ 😁
Sherman sounds great. God bless
I like "RED BULL" but it looks like it's going to be "Sherman" which is fine also because it accurately describes it. I agree with you about the weather. I have been looking forward to this for a long time. Keep up the great work. I enjoy your videos. Look forward to them everyday. Better than any TV program!
I like Sherman. I call my grandson Buster.
Nice looking grapple not as nice as the artillian grapple way more versatile and picks up uneven loads. Great video as always 👍
Hi Mike, I am really excited about seeing what the rk24 ( Redbull) will be able to handle with the new grapple. Might be the pivoting point for me between 24 or 37.
SHERMAN FOR SURE
Little Red Riding Hood
Also looking forward to the grapple capability of Baby Sherman!
Red bull , it's a mighty tough little tractor.
Sherman sounds great.
Watching all the videos with you using a grapple has made me look to see if that would be an attachment for me. I think it is something that I could use, now I just have to get the finance committee (the wife) to approve the purchase.
They are very handy for sure
Since you already named the 55 big red I would’ve called the 24 Lil’ Red. But out of the choices I’d go with Sherman.
Mike, if you had a quick hitch for the three point it would really speed things up switching between and moving implements around. Surely Rural King sells one? If not Harbor Freight. Or if you really want a nice one. Get a Deere iMatch.
I'm looking forward to see how the grapple works. I have a Massey Ferguson about the same size as 'Rudy' and I'd like to see how a grapple would perform...
Enjoy your videos a lot... here is a vote for Rudy
you might want to try a Ripper tooth on the backhoe for stumps. i got one from BXpanded. it works extremely well. not left with a big hole to fill in.
Rudy!
Rudy !!!!!
SHERMAN SOUNDS LIKE A WINNER TO ME
I like the name Sherman as like you say it is like a little tank.
How has it held up 5 years later.....?
Where did you get the great wire pallets for firewood and what are they? Thanks for the videos!
Sherman: Just got back in from cutting up a 110 foot Red oak 32 inch on the stump it was hit by lightning, just had it trimmed up due to fire damage when our house burnt this past Feb, poor tree can't get a break. Well it is now going to be firewood for our new fireplace.
Sherman sounds like a winner..
Rudy.
I really like Sherman too but Rudy is my fav.
History buff, Sherman it must be. We bought 14 acres in Michigan this past may, all woods mostly oak and a small cabin. We were going to buy a used tractor this fall but have decided to wait and save a bit more to buy the Sherman next spring. We just rented a excavator from a place that doesn't rent bouncy houses to dig up stumps to run underground power, thanks for the tips in those vids.
I like Sherman myself
Stihl quality starting on the first pull!
I love Rudy! But Sherman is pretty cool.
Looks like the spacer is in the wrong place on the thumb
Sherman sounds good.
After the Stanford win last night, it's hard to argue with Rudy, but I'm leaning towards "Baby Sherman", or Sherman Junior. Staight up 'sherman' might be a stretch!!
I meant ND win over Stanford. But I'm a Bama fan. Wife is a ND fan.
Are the tires loaded? I cant get over the difference that makes. I use calcium because it is heavier and cheeper.. Its in a tube so it won't rust the rims.. I ran the backhoe on my b7100 and backed it into a stump and bent it... still works ok... That tractor would be great in tight spots in the woods without the hoe...
I'd like to get a few of those aluminum palate boxes for wood. I've searched that term and some variants but cannot find. Can you link them to me?
I like Rudy because he was an underdog. But did his job & then some!
Sherman for sure
I really want a grapple for my sub-compact tractor (John Deere). I'm interested to see how this one works.
Sherman, definitely!!😋
Does the rk24 have a hydrostatic fan underneath it? I have a ls xg3025h love the tractor but hate the fan already had to replace it from sticks breaking it
Video starts at 13:45
I like Sherman too! Also, I may have missed something but didn't you get a drive over mower deck with RK 24? I noticed you still always mow with your Bad Boy, but I would like to see how hard or easy it is to remove or intsall the mower. Thanks for the videos!
Rudy... They don't come any tougher than that man..
Amen Brother
Has anyone suggested "Clifford" as in "Clifford the Big Red Dog"?
What pallet forks are on the rk 55???
That slope you are weedeating in the beginning, have you ever thought about planting wildflowers there? might be a little less maintenance.
i like Rudy
im starting to like these rk tractors and the pricing ive used deere tractors but they can be pricey and yes there a nice machine but be interested to see how rk do if in the uk
Rudy would work but like you Sherman makes more sense to me. So Sherman.
I gotta go with Rudy!
Any plans on an equipment shed yet for all those attachments and machines?
Hi mike . I’ve been following you for awhile now and seen a few videos. I bought a grapple but I’m not sure if i bought the rite grapple i was wanting your opinion on which style i should had bought
I think buster
