The libtard tree huggers with a stranglehold on CA forestry politics don't allow this type of work to be done. Hence outrageous forest fires. Up here in Idaho the forestry department is proactive and do manageable mulching which minimizes the severity of fires. Apples and oranges. Your vote counts!
Whoa!! 😳 That huge mulcher is an impressive machine and the content was sooooo satisfying to watch! Loved the sheer power and efficiency of that thing! Great stuff.
All I can say is WOW! That's a amazing machine, both in what it can do, and how expensive those teeth are to replace. Thanks for a great video. It was really fun to watch that machine do it's work.
The cooling system for the hydraulics must be an amazing bit of engineering. The heat being generated by this type of heavy work is incredible. Excellent video, thank you for not adding a crap sound track. The machine running is real music to my ears.
That was exciting to watch that machine just chew and spit out mulch. Thanks so much for the view from the operator's seat. The size of some of the trees that machine attacked was amazing. I watched the whole episode. Thanks for sharing and be safe.
Man the recovery time is instantly back to top speed on the drum, that's a incredible machine, talk about knocking a job out quick, man what a beast, it just goes threw them trees like nothing, that's some dence material too, awesome video, thanks for sharing 🌲💪🇺🇸
Thanks for watching! I think I forgot to mention in the vid that the mulcher head is PTO driven, not hydraulic so there is almost 100% energy transfer from the engine to the mulcher head, that's why it seems to recover so quickly and not bog down easily even in the bigger material.
That's some machine! The last time I saw anything like this in terms of size and power was when I worked as a refuse worker down at the tip where we unloaded the trucks, all of our compacted general waste would be shredded through huge mulching machines before being loaded into huge trailer trucks to be taken elsewhere for incineration or whatever it is they do with it now. Was quite extraordinary to see, and smell...
That thing is a beast, I think it would be fun to operate a piece of equipment like this. I’m also quite sure there is a lot of skill involved. Kudos to the operator. And thanks for the video.
This machine is mesmerizing. I watched the full video and was as engrossed at the end as I was at the start. I would love to see how the are regrows over the next 12-18 months
WOW, that was something else. I am reminded of my younger years where woods like that would be cleared with an ax and chainsaw (minimum wage was $1.50). Or if heavy equipment was used it would be a bulldozer knocking trees down. The wood would be harvested. There was no such thing a mulch. Or, at least, I wasn't aware of it.
Those woods are so dense that all of the trees are fighting for the same real estate. That's why none are really that big...just numerous. Sweet video.
Man, that "Trees Be Gone" machine has got some grunt! The trees just disappear, that's crazy. Awesome to watch, must have been a blast watching it onsite...
This is the video that got me to subscribe 5 months ago. Do more of these if the opportunity arises. As always great content. Watch out for the bees man. 🤣
I worked beside a "I'm told" 600HP mulcher for almost a week. The most AWESOME and scariest machine I have every been around. That machine went thru over 100 gallons of diesel in less than eight hours and would go thru a two foot diameter tree in seconds. Don't remember the name of the machine but I will never forget the operators name, call me a liar all you want but the operators last name was Munch.
@@brucedavies1235 These are usually trees not worth harvesting. If they don't get mulched, they would get cut down and dragged to a chipper, or just piled up and burned. Mulching in place keeps the nutrients in place and lets it decompose back into the soil it grew from.
@@brucedavies1235 Those trees are NOT EVEN CLOSE to 100 years old, and how does this take jobs away from Americans? Land Services is an American company hired to do this job.
I rented a Prime Tech PT300 which looks similar to the Raptor... $25k for a week but worth it. I don’t know about the Raptor but the PT300 mulched, subsoiled and pulverized small rock. For an all in one land clearing machine these are just awesome.
Very satisfying to watch. I'm sure it's an incredibly expensive machine, but with the labor savings it must be much cheaper to clear a large lot than using chainsaws, woodchippers, and traditional land clearing equipment.
Cant wait for the remote controlled, fire management version. So much research and investment is needed to understand our new fire risks. Reducing brush is a technique to slow fire spread.
Incredible. I've seen videos with a mulcher on a skid steer, but this is a whole nother beast. Thanks for bringing us along. Did you ask if they needed another operator?
I get so jealous watching these types of videos. The last 2 years spring fall and summer I have been clearing my parents back property that has been growing for 25yrs by my lonesome. Weed eater with blade a chainsaw and truck and me I've cleared a lot but still have a lot to go. I had to take down about 150 yards of fence that was covered with poison ivy with vines 2 inches thick running the length of the fence running in and out of the fence holes so that was great. It keeps me busy but I would love to have that thing for 4 or 5 days
it took over a hundred years of development to get to this point with these mulchers. great machines, but the ordinary rotary kind offers a lot more return on horsepower input.
It’s amazing what this machine can do. It mows through those tall trees like bush hogging a pasture. I really enjoy watching mulchers at work.
I feel like CalFire could use this to make firebreaks in moments, or access roads through the woods .amazing stuff.
I'd have to so agree with you on this statement.
I’m sure forest fire crews do use these.

Yeah but they are all about saving the trees 🙄
Si, pero por conveniencia para algún departamento o persona no les conviene, corrupcion a gran escala.
Love how this thing cuts down those trees and shreds them to sawdust!
Nice job man. Thanks for featuring our customer Land Services Company and their new Raptor 500. Loved the video!
Whoa!! 😳 That huge mulcher is an impressive machine and the content was sooooo satisfying to watch! Loved the sheer power and efficiency of that thing! Great stuff.
I was starting to think I was the only woman who loves this type of equipment.
All I can say is WOW! That's a amazing machine, both in what it can do, and how expensive those teeth are to replace. Thanks for a great video. It was really fun to watch that machine do it's work.
Yeah I think I said the word “wow” on quite a few occasions watching that thing in person. Thank you for watching!
OH! I am a fan of that huge mulcher. Thanks for taking us with you!
Thank you for letting us see what a giant mulcher can do. It’s like a lawn mower for the woods!
Yeah it kinda is like a lawnmower lol! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel!
Excellent video/narration! Thank you.
Great video dude, wish I could have been there. I love watching this type of stuff. keep those videos coming.
That is a monster of a machine. Thank you for sharing that with us.
Wow amazing machine. Great job,total enjoyed watching these men who run these great machines.
LOL, that is Munchie on steroids! Thanks for sharing this one!👍👍Look forward for your return to this property! This was awesome.
The cooling system for the hydraulics must be an amazing bit of engineering. The heat being generated by this type of heavy work is incredible. Excellent video, thank you for not adding a crap sound track. The machine running is real music to my ears.
Yeah. A radiator, fucking space magic.
That back compartment has multiple rads with fans all over. It’s quite impressive.
I second the credit for no crap sound track!
What is more important for this mulching jobs,hydraulic flow or hydraulic pressure ?.
@@DieselRamcharger LOL Bad day?
It's cool to see you two together as friends awsome dudes good job

one clears away further beautifully our "breath air", so that someone with the cleared country puts again money into the pockets! Bravo!
That was 50 minutes of sheer enjoyment , fantastic content .
Thank you Keith! The next vid with the Cat 323 with the mulcher will be up in the next day or two so stay tuned!

@@idigit4967 sweet, that machine is no joke,
dense vs dence
Thank you for the video it is great. This machine is a beast will rip anything in its path. Wow.
Very impressive, that machine took that thicket of trees down like mowing tall grass. Great video!
That thing is all business!.
Thanks for the awesome video my friend that's 1 big and incredible mulching machine
Amazing machine, i'd like to see more of it.
Wow, that was insane watching what that machine can do.
I m in love with that machine!!! Probably love the other machines as well.
That's some machine!

What an amazing clearance. That sure is some mulcher.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ya'll are extremely handy. Awesome video. You are the men that make America Great.
That is an impressive machine, just watch that thing go . I really love watching a machine like that, it's amazing .
🤗👍💖💫
That is a awesome machine.
Idk why but this is so satisfying to watch
Really amazing. Great job.
Impressive machine and good video thanks
Love your channel, good education to learn about clearing land, I need one 💯💯🔥🔥👍👍😎😎
Thanks for letting me enjoy the video with you see you soon
Great camera angles. Fast land clearing!
That thing is a beast, I think it would be fun to operate a piece of equipment like this. I’m also quite sure there is a lot of skill involved. Kudos to the operator. And thanks for the video.
scouts are cheap compared to hitting a boulder
With this comment, I wonder if this machine is used often up north say in New Hampshire where big rocks are just underground.
Brought out the good ole boy and boy was he hungry! Totally enjoyed this.
Awesome, thanks for watching!
Incredible!!!
Love those machines. Love love love those machines.
Looks like just out in the back yard for a casual mowing of the lawn……amazing!
Extremely massive machines they really do the job, Quick and easy for them
In a zombie apocalypse that will be my z wagon
Very therapeutic to watch. Love it
That thing could make some pasture land real quick. 😎👍💪🏻😎
This is so satisfying. Love it❤👍👍👍👍👍👍
Good video brother. Man that thing is a beast

Omg!! That's the one Kick-Ass machine
Wow!!👍Nice machinery!! Good job!🦋👍🇺🇸
Thanks Val!
Those woods are so dense that all of the trees are fighting for the same real estate. That's why none are really that big...just numerous. Sweet video.
Holy cow! That is a beast of a machine, take them down like tooth picks. Impressive mulching machine
You were right. That was REALLY REALLY COOL! That thing is all engine and teeth!
WOW, I LOVE IT. I ENJOYED WATCHING.
Man, that "Trees Be Gone" machine has got some grunt! The trees just disappear, that's crazy. Awesome to watch, must have been a blast watching it onsite...
hi watching from Phil's.
nice work
tnx
Machine is a tank so cool to watch!
The tree huggers are freakin' losing it watching this video hahaha good god that thing is an absolute beast!!!
That was crazy!
Now that’s a beast makes it look easy great end results
It's so satisfying to watch, if I walk away for a second and miss some I rewind it to make sure I didn't miss anything 🙂
I was going to say Damm what a BIG lawn mower looks like it when u go fast forward WOW 😳😳😳 THANKS😁👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wow! Big Daddy!😳❤✌ The trees are like toothpicks!

It takes a lot of jobs away from Americans
They waste a lot of good wood trees that take 100 years to grow are gone in seconds

With the current lumber market, if it is worth harvesting, they will come in and get it before this machine shows up. If it ain't, they dont.
@@brucedavies1235 Those trees are NOT EVEN CLOSE to 100 years old, and how does this take jobs away from Americans? Land Services is an American company hired to do this job.
I. Realy. Do. Enjoy. Watching. Those big monsers. Work. Great. Job guys
Marvelous machine!!
Im glad you said that at the end great machine does the job quick but a prick of a thing to maintain.

That thing is a beast!!!! Makes me want one! I need something like that to clear the land I just bought.
One word WOW!
Very satisfying to watch. I'm sure it's an incredibly expensive machine, but with the labor savings it must be much cheaper to clear a large lot than using chainsaws, woodchippers, and traditional land clearing equipment.
That thing is like King Kong rampaging through the Jungle. Nothing left but a Memory!
Yum Yum eat 'em up!
I would charge admission just to watch that Beast of the East.
LOL I know right! One of the operations managers wanted to nickname it the "Fire Ant"
Man that thing is Munchie after being on steroids for a year!!! Thanks for sharing the video!! Loved it.

same here, this is huge
That is my dream job, getting to run a mulcher like that.
Holy moly indeed!!!
😳👏👏😳
Insanely productive machine
It's literally the Godzilla of mulching machines! 🐲
Awesome Video!!
Roughly, on a similar property, what is the charge per acre?
super...james ... sometimes it all comes together....super....james
Mulching heaven with monster cool! Unbelievable really. Fun day for you all.
Another great video
I am curious as to why he mostly goes just forward but at times goes forward then backwards. Is it the density of the trees or thickness of them?
What is that machine built on, is it bulldozer base or excavator? Thank you for showing this awesome machine. Have a great day.
Man created that machinery not to mention the rocket and I still am wowwwwwed by the iPhone and cars!
Drone footage? Seeing that from above would be amazing!
That was so awesome
Looks like it belongs in an old episode of Thunderbirds lol. What a beast!!!
I get so jealous watching these types of videos. The last 2 years spring fall and summer I have been clearing my parents back property that has been growing for 25yrs by my lonesome.

This machine is remarkable and what's scary is this is a smaller one. This is one of the greatest all in one tools of all-time.
it took over a hundred years of development to get to this point with these mulchers. great machines, but the ordinary rotary kind offers a lot more return on horsepower input.
just one word WOW
Great Video 😊
That thing is a BEAST!
I know the tree lovers are going crazy over this 🤣 🤣 🤣
Monster video !! 👌💪
