We had both machines stuck and getting them out is quite the chore. The Cat Skidder and the Cat Buncher both had to claw there way out!! #stuck #mud #logging
Hi John, WOW!! I didn't think you where going to get your self out with the front end down that deep. Good job my friend. You're hired!!👍👍 Take care buddy!! Your friend and fellow logger, Al.
You are one cool head.. Unless it is just on camera.. LOL You just roll with the punches.. I grew up in a logging family in Michigan and also did some logging in Northern California in the big sugar pine timber.. Keep up the good work.. I enjoy seeing your videos.. R.B.
Dude, your skidder is SO quiet! Lol. I ran 518's, 528's, and D7E'e and D7F's in Weyerhauser's Eastern Oregon division. Best years of my life. Loved the video!
Reminds me of a dump site near me, they got both of their cat track loaders sunk so called out one of those heavy duty wreckers and he ended up getting stuck too trying to take a shortcut on-site.
Done very something very similar, the buncher cut as much as he could going forward till he got stuck, then I had to drag him out backwards with the skidder. We called it bungee cutting
So did the other cutter guy leave or just add another guy to the crew. Yeah that's a mess at least you both got out and just keep Rollin and keep up the great video's
YOu learn not to go in the same tracks twice. And when it sets down a little, stop and you don't have to sit on top of the cab waiting to get rescued. Knowing when to stop is a LOT of it. Prayers and BLESSINGS and Goomer Hugs!
I was the guy wanting to see more stuck videos. Thought I jinxed you. But this was the best stuck video I’ve seen in a while. I hope you make money off of it. I know it was tough as hell fooling with the camera.
Muskeg , we used to lose excavators literally sink 'em in that crud in the '70's slave Lake Alberta, if anybody is watching and ever wondered why they usually only drill oil in the winter...muskeg is why
I’m watching the big girl spin a wheel on the stump and I’m wishing it had the limited slip axels because that was nearly out on its own at the end :o) ( i’d Say diff locks, but nothing seems to have the shaft strength for that anymore)
Yep,gotta cut trees and lay them down to use for a "road" to track out on.Common method for logging wet ground and swamp.Pick up the log road on the way back out.
@@paulmccallum4229 just didn't know to run it properly, I've seriously walked around a swamp, water all around the buncher, lift tracks to walk and turn..only common sense
Why no chains on those wheels? Is it because the environment reasons? With chains both those machines would get out that little amount of mud on their own. Also a track buncher would be way better, it can easy push it self out with the boom, and of course drop the heavy weight of the trees first before trying to get unstuck
If you get a dual arch skidded stuck it’s bad But I’ve never so stuck I couldn’t get my self out use the dual arch to push your way out I’ve done it serval times in situations way worse than this
I love it when a plan comes together.be safe out there and take care John.✌️🇺🇸✌️🇺🇸🚛🚛
Awesome video, good job fellas!

Great job guys I need to work with yall
Usually not a dull moment with mud and heavy equipment....in fact it's very entertaining at times, (although costly) as in this video.
....13

Could you imagine what Mr Handsome grief would have been if he pulled you both out? Hell of a job. That's some beautiful dirt.
Done very something very similar, the buncher cut as much as he could going forward till he got stuck, then I had to drag him out backwards with the skidder. We called it bungee cutting
LOL great post guys
Hey big John. Ice one bud have a good one
So did the other cutter guy leave or just add another guy to the crew. Yeah that's a mess at least you both got out and just keep Rollin and keep up the great video's
Great job
Hats off to the new guy he got you out pure skill hahaha see ya Napa mike
looks like y, all need more rain too lol !
Good job too!
Mud sucks! Thanks for the video Mr John.

what does it mean?
@@spaghetti9845 What does WHAT mean?
@@lewiemcneely9143 all of it
@@spaghetti9845 You'd have to be an operator and then you'd know already.
That is y I like the bunchers because they have tracks and they have a longe boom.
Awesome skidder!!
It's junk dude
Tigercat skidders are WAY better
Chains and diff.lock guys :-)
You got mad skills dude
just want to say great job on that
There's something to be said about a track machine. But if you get one of those stuck it's a bad day.
Love the live action
Agreed
Doing the mud dance, oh oh
iffy i was nearby id get that wiht kimmy shovel rds , works good !
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Quick call the " Swamp Loggers " They have the right stuff to get you both out . :-)
I bet old josh is going to have fun with you
I was the guy wanting to see more stuck videos. Thought I jinxed you. But this was the best stuck video I’ve seen in a while. I hope you make money off of it. I know it was tough as hell fooling with the camera.
Bobby goodson is on his way to help you now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Way to go. No quit in you
Oh no yall got a sticky icky mess.. going on.. hopefully y'all both will get out...
I am guessing you guys never seem to run chains? maybe better off with a track cutter. nice videos though, interesting to watch
Somebody call Bobby goodson for help now!!!!!!!!!!!!
yah oattah bag that dirt for potting soil lol !
I'm just curious, do these machines not have diff-lock? I've ran just about every other piece of equipment but never a skidder.
Ole Dude yes they do
Our skidder had diff lock but some pump went out and now it doesn't have it
Don't help having that heavy ol tank
Tough to "Keep Rollin' " when you are knee deep in mud.
We need Bobby here in n Delta Colorado.nothing but tress
My dad taught me that once the tires get wet start making other arragements
Cool
Muskeg , we used to lose excavators literally sink 'em in that crud in the '70's slave Lake Alberta, if anybody is watching and ever wondered why they usually only drill oil in the winter...muskeg is why
Stuck is when you have to get someone to pull you out, LOL you fellas were just detained a bit
Yea, try to unhook that cable, that is what makes things fun. If you don't try that would be boring. You have better tires than him.
I’m watching the big girl spin a wheel on the stump and I’m wishing it had the limited slip axels because that was nearly out on its own at the end :o) ( i’d Say diff locks, but nothing seems to have the shaft strength for that anymore)
Need to take some lessons from Bobby Goodson
Simitrio would work circles round them boys
Good job bud, but I think being your working a wet low spot you probably need to run duals on your skidder and cutter
How bout tracks! Track buncher, 630 tigercat w track chains
Places like that is where you throw all the tops and limbs from the delimber.
The force is weak with these operators
CHAINS!!!!
Can I give this 2 thumbs up!?!?!? Don’t believe you could have scripted that and made it workout any better! Just keep plowin in this case!!!😀😀
Need the diff’s locked.
Not necessarily, it's how u drive it, I hardly ever used diff lock
Big tire some time u just need to playing in the mud lol
I simply cannot understand why operators don't know the "diff lock" switch. This is for agriculture Tractors, skidders, fellers, etc.
Can't turn worth crap when its on, I hardly ever used mine dude, it helps not having a heavy p.o.s
John you need at least 50 to 100 feet of cable what’s with this short stuff😎
i just did a soggy river bottom with no bottom bout 1500 ft long & never made a rut !
Tiger cat
2 minutes huh! Lol
I'm a dumb kiwi; but there are snakes in the bush, aye?
Should have had chains on lol, even the boss gets an oops now and then
Do they not have a locking diff?
Good video but don't get my equipment muddy again 😇
Somebody needs some dualing plates! Spinning ain't winning. Prologger you are supposed to know when you see them Ash the ground is no good
Spinning is cutting tires too.
Good joob
These guys need some lessons on running equipment. Especially a skidder
Track cutter time
go watch his new video..... Tracked buncher stuck in same spot?
Yep,gotta cut trees and lay them down to use for a "road" to track out on.Common method for logging wet ground and swamp.Pick up the log road on the way back out.

Dam do i miss skiding.. Good video..555 cat was the last cat i run.. Is yours a 535?
Yeah we have 3, 535 and 1 545. Thanks for Watching
Omg dude the cat skidders are garbage, heavy ,need a football field to turn em around
What happened to the Tigercat ?
It's ripping around a different block, not stuck
Chains would have been good
"ONE Handed baby ...all day long"... fukin eh eh
Get ahold of Bobby Goodson he will show you how to get them out
Just saying,..... I would have backed in there to begin with.
Why no chains in the tires?
Why no chains on those wheels? Is it because the environment reasons? With chains both those machines would get out that little amount of mud on their own. Also a track buncher would be way better, it can easy push it self out with the boom, and of course drop the heavy weight of the trees first before trying to get unstuck
Time for longer winch cables
Pull my finger...lol ok now pull me out this mud hell
Was he stuck again at the end of the video?
Maybeee.....
My boss would have fired this dude for not having the sense to back in to the problem ,,but they had a lot of time to talk about it
If you get a dual arch skidded stuck it’s bad
But I’ve never so stuck I couldn’t get my self out use the dual arch to push your way out
I’ve done it serval times in situations way worse than this
why not jus use the cutter head on the ground to lift front wheels a little or is not allowed though looks like so much fun to me
What state is this, looks like New England somewhere
Why didn't you have your axle locked in
ALL GO NO QUIT
Yes sir!!
How much money you clear that day? Lol it sucks for sure didn't need b n there
Wheres the track machine
What state is this in
A little lighter on the throttle maybe. You don't want to get spinning.
