Tim, I went down to my hunting lease yesterday. They are cutting timber on the 5000 acres we lease. The timber guys were good enough to let me go by them and get one of my ladder stands off of a pine tree I’m sure they were going to cut. On the way out, I stoped and talked to one of guys. He told me I could watch if I would not get in the way. I took him up on it. It is really amazing to watch. He even pulled a couple of small red oaks up close so we could use them for firewood at the camp. Super people. Thanks. Y’all have a good-un!
Running the same Machine in northern California right now and I know that feeling he just got. Watched his videos of steep ground cutting t get an idea of how to cut here. I'm from Florida I'm used to swamps not these mountains I've been cutting monster fir and ponderosa pine they heavy heavy
You have one seriously efficient logging business. My wife is a book keeper for a logging company here in SC and shows some of your videos to her boss.
Awesome video Tim, man those big machines are really impressive and you guys are a well oiled machine the way you work together. You made a comment about you wished everybody could be there and watch that operation in person that would really be something. Good stuff man. Be safe and have a great day. 👍
If you let me come to MS and play with your hotsaw I will let you come to NC and play with my dangle head..... wait a minute that didn't sound right....lol
Knowing where you are cutting, it amazes me seeing Derick and Chad move those machines around in the gullies/ ravines. Talk about torque monsters and top notch operators.
Fantastic video Tim !!! You can make 6 hour videos of the 635 bogey skidder and feller. Y’all got 2 good operators there. The audio is almost like being there. Keep’em coming
Good looking machines. On that buncher does the house have a manifold like a excavator so it can 360 or is it like a Timbco were you can swing all the way around but have to swing back the other way to keep from pulling the hoses apart?
I'm originally from the mountains of South Western Virginia, the Appalachian coal fields. Even though most of the timber must be hand cut. You can use a track buncher in some places. What I would do is run the dozer out ahead and punch little roads in to the steep timber, that helped the buncher man a lot. Of course now that I log down South, I don't have to do things like that to often anymore.
???? -- In the Tigercat LX830D, are there track and tip sensors in the cab to show how close a tip-over might be (like a warning system)? It looks like with a self-leveling cab it might be difficult to tell if the machine is about to tip. ????
That viewer that said...why do you keep showing those videos.... Tell him to come up with is own TH-cam show. You keep showing these videos...... Awsome Take care of from New Hampshire
I was in my community colleges heavy logging equipment training program a little over a year ago, and while I was in the processor, a forked tree snuck up on me and I barely hit the stop button in time before the fork hit the knife’s on the Waratah head.
That was a great video. Love to watch him cut them tree. He is great at it has some fast hands and thinking to save it like that. Stay safe and. God bless you'll.
Tim does that tiger cat have a self-leveling cab? Thanks for sharing your work with us it's not everyday of man could go to the woods and watch it thanks
😱 YA, I'll bet there was a BRAIN FLASH when that track came up😵😊 What is that undergrowth vine o them trees? NICE CLOSe-UP COVERAGE Tim !!!!👌👍👍👍 KEEP THEM CHIPS FLYING 😍😍😍😍😍
For all the experienced tree felling guys out there. And girls. Ive run a chainsaw quite a bit because we burn a lot of wood every year and I have a husqvarna 455 that I use the most along with a stihl ms310. I have a few trees that need to be dropped, the one has a back lean. Any advice before I tackle this? And is the bore technique for the more experienced? Thank you, keep the great content coming man. Ive been watching a lot of your stuff to get schooled.
I thought about moving back home and pull logs after my last truck payment in August. That rain dictates how much you work and that's kinda scary for me being long haul for so many years
Man I could watch this all day long good stuff for sure. Bet Derrick gonna check his pants after that... Keep up the good videos and be safe out there.
I love watching yall with the equipment and would love to come out and see in person this one time I'm fixing to try and get my own blogging outfit started and would love to see it all in person one day if you dodnt mind sir showing me I've got a good friend that logs and hes busy all the time and I don't want to be in nobody's way I would love for somebody to show me the equipment and walk me. Threw this from start to start game by frame and what's needed to get started in the business not to take away from nobody but just to see thanks and keep you're great videos come I watch bout all of youres their great thanks and have a great day ok
drop dead gorgeous was a dream work life I would even be happy to start out with a bunch of high hr equipment like this if could find the right mechanic to keep them going
My dad had a friend that cut small under brush and chipped it on site for fuel wood. He worked in Mississippi and Alabama. They would ahead of timber crews before the timber was cut,they said that by doing this the under growth would not come back as fast. Are there anyone still doing that?
You don’t need to keep an eye on the fuel usage on that 635. I bet if you were running two skidders using less fuel they’d still work out using more than just it by itself to pull the same amount of wood.
I bet that tightened Derrick's old sphincter up! Or he needed to change his shorts. I would have been changing my shorts shorts had it been me. Great video!
830D is about 72,500 roughly , Deere 859M is nearly 80,000 . Closer to Tigercats 870 size . Depending on how each is outfitted of course . Longer tracs , counter weights and cutter heads ,fuel capacity etc . Retired logger ,just trying to help you out .
Your be surprised how much I would take to tip one over. I run non leveling Deere 903 Deere buncher and you can be on a pretty dirty side hill with a lot bigger wood than that and dumping down hill she will come right up off the ground and you just dump and keep goin. I’ve slid down hills and had the buncher spin around sideways. But us canadaians might just be a lot more crazy
So 100 gallons of fuel a day and if you pull 20 loads that day that’s only 5 gallons a load. That’s pretty friggin good! That’s about the same or slightly better fuel consumption per load as a 540 cable skidder!
This video will make you think twice about cutting a dead tree!!!!! I've got five post oak trees to do but I will not be cutting them until I have a spotter and or a young pair of legs that can run!!!!! I LOVE me some TigerCat videos.

I always love you up close heavy machinery videos. Even as a boy I loved to see dozers being operated.
Love seeing logging in action!!! My father was a logger for 25 years on the West Coast in the Sierras. Love your videos!
I could set there and watch that 12hrs a day with complete contentment have a great day Tim thanks for sharing stay safe out there
Tim, you have some good fella's on the crew. Every video i watch they guys are working not standing around unless something broke down.
High production logging. Great job guys be safe and keep all them there tracks on the ground. Great vid. Thanks and have a great day Tim.

Wow! Great video, hearing those machines purr. But, when you watch those operators work those machines they certainly bring them to life.
You have one seriously efficient logging business. My wife is a book keeper for a logging company here in SC and shows some of your videos to her boss.
You are right awesome video. You can make hundreds of videos like this one and I will still enjoy them
Hope you are having a great week
Awesome video Tim, man those big machines are really impressive and you guys are a well oiled machine the way you work together. You made a comment about you wished everybody could be there and watch that operation in person that would really be something. Good stuff man. Be safe and have a great day. 👍
Wow Tim what a video, Derrick is one of a kind operator, 💪🌳👍🌲🤙 and derricks a BADASS on the 830.
If you let me come to MS and play with your hotsaw I will let you come to NC and play with my dangle head..... wait a minute that didn't sound right....lol
Amazing to watch...great operator Tim. Thanks for sharing
I remember Day you uploaded this video, Derrick almost cuts that big tree an almost goes over, awesome video 🇺🇲💪💪
Knowing where you are cutting, it amazes me seeing Derick and Chad move those machines around in the gullies/ ravines. Talk about torque monsters and top notch operators.
So good to see SAFETY is not a priority over there
I enjoy watching that machine, it amazes me how he can operate it.
How does the hydraulic flow on the new Feller/buncher compare to the old feller/buncher - gallons per minute?
Great video, thank you
That track went down in a hurry, bet that got his heart pumping.
I miss these videos. It is fun to watch them again.
I liked that answer on how many video's are you going to do, we like them all keep posting! Nice work you all do
Fantastic video Tim !!!
You can make 6 hour videos of the 635 bogey skidder and feller. Y’all got 2 good operators there. The audio is almost like being there. Keep’em coming
I bet he would say he knew it was gonna tip,lol. Cool video Tim .it ain't fun when any machine tips. Yall are true professionals thanks
Great video Tim, Love to watch the Buncher work
Machine - $600,000. Good operator - priceless.
machine 600,000,, good operator, minimum wage,?
@@mitchelljohnson2273 no they make way more than that lol. WAYY more
horsepower and diesel fuel fumes make your sticker peck up if you know anything about them at all LOL
Iam in I'll. Love your videos would like to know about your deer hunting success will continue watching cant get enough.
Good looking machines. On that buncher does the house have a manifold like a excavator so it can 360 or is it like a Timbco were you can swing all the way around but have to swing back the other way to keep from pulling the hoses apart?
You can spin them around endlessly.
I'm originally from the mountains of South Western Virginia, the Appalachian coal fields. Even though most of the timber must be hand cut. You can use a track buncher in some places. What I would do is run the dozer out ahead and punch little roads in to the steep timber, that helped the buncher man a lot. Of course now that I log down South, I don't have to do things like that to often anymore.
Cool video like watching them big machinery work and people who know what to do. Have a great day and be safe
Awesome video Tim 👍👍👍
???? -- In the Tigercat LX830D, are there track and tip sensors in the cab to show how close a tip-over might be (like a warning system)? It looks like with a self-leveling cab it might be difficult to tell if the machine is about to tip. ????
that tigercat 635 is a beast I love hearing it run
Keep posting the 635 and cutter videos man. Awesome machines and operators no matter what anyone says lol
I would love to see your brother and the guy that cuts for Bobby get on track together. They would run those skidders hot. Great video!
I'll bet Derrick couldn't drive a greased BB up his rear end with a sledgehammer when that machine tipped! Great video, as always!
George Beck I don’t think Tim was far behind in that contest either!!
You have good help. Derrick has it together or he would have eaten it with that Poplar. Does that buncher self level or does he have to do it?
It must take time to come back to the world after being in the tigercat for a day. That's a lot of brainwork doing that!
G'day to you guys..
That viewer that said...why do you keep showing those videos.... Tell him to come up with is own TH-cam show. You keep showing these videos...... Awsome Take care of from New Hampshire
Tim, What happens with the stumps, do you remove them later?
I dont care what anyone says, Derrick is a bad ass.
Great reflexes Derrick! I noticed in the beginning Chad was waiting on Derrick for a pull. Is that usual or does he normally stay ahead of Chad?
Home sick got bacteria infection I feel off breakfast table when that hapened rigth there, Dang man he good on that machine, love the video
What is not to like! I will watch every minute of these and do. I miss working in the woods, don't miss the pay though.
great video Tim , man that made my butt pucker lol be safe and have a blessed day !
I think all of you men could shell peas with your machines
It is hard to tell how steep those hill are until you see the machine come back up to the top. It nice to hear the skidder roar.
Why don’t the rubber tired machines have the rotating head?
I tell ya I could watch a fellerbuncher cut all day. What an amazing machine the work it does & the lives it saves
Tim, you mentioned skidder is basically a pump! How much pressure does it put out to drive the trans and clamp on rear? Just curious! Lol
Listening to that 635 is my lullaby kinda like a cat D6R, the sound of power!
Love it. That's one bad azz machine right there.
Wow that’s an awesome by the operator. I could watch this all night
I was in my community colleges heavy logging equipment training program a little over a year ago, and while I was in the processor, a forked tree snuck up on me and I barely hit the stop button in time before the fork hit the knife’s on the Waratah head.
Awesome video Tim. 👍👍👍
That was a great video. Love to watch him cut them tree. He is great at it has some fast hands and thinking to save it like that. Stay safe and. God bless you'll.
I seen today that our osb board and 2x6, and 2x4 had select forest management on them
That answers my question if you can tip over the 835. Fine line between a good and bad day. Excellent operator.
That was definitely a “hold my beer” kind of moment. I hope those joysticks in that machine make good oh sh!t handles!!!
Thanks great watch.
Tim does that tiger cat have a self-leveling cab? Thanks for sharing your work with us it's not everyday of man could go to the woods and watch it thanks
Another thing I just noticed is the cab stays level if your tracks are not that is awesome on your 830 cutter
That’s right, it levels
How many crews do you have running for your company Tim?
Awesome video Tim !
😱 YA, I'll bet there was a BRAIN FLASH when that track came up😵😊 What is that undergrowth vine o them trees? NICE CLOSe-UP COVERAGE Tim !!!!👌👍👍👍
KEEP THEM CHIPS FLYING 😍😍😍😍😍
Wow! Crazy stuff.

I just wished it was a hour long, i love those cutters.
Great videos keep up the good work👍
I thought about moving back home and pull logs after my last truck payment in August. That rain dictates how much you work and that's kinda scary for me being long haul for so many years
Can’t wait for an inside the cab video of the 830 running
Man I could watch this all day long good stuff for sure. Bet Derrick gonna check his pants after that... Keep up the good videos and be safe out there.
Love it keep filming and he is good
I love watching yall with the equipment and would love to come out and see in person this one time I'm fixing to try and get my own blogging outfit started and would love to see it all in person one day if you dodnt mind sir showing me I've got a good friend that logs and hes busy all the time and I don't want to be in nobody's way I would love for somebody to show me the equipment and walk me.

That was awesome! Powerful machines.
How much was the cost of seat replacement....lol
I been off for 3 weeks cause of rain we finally got to cut some this eve
I love that 635! It's a beast and is all power!! Now emission crap! Roll coal!!
I love the smell of sawdust n diesel in the morning 😉 thanks Tim .
drop dead gorgeous was a dream work life I would even be happy to start out with a bunch of high hr equipment like this if could find the right mechanic to keep them going
Guy i just cant get over what that skidder is like with the double rear axles. Ive never seen one like it.
hi from scotland and very good video
Tim what happened at the end with the audio and video
Yeah I say Derrick pinched the seat just a little bit.
Tim how old is the tract of land you guys are working on? What about 15 year's?
That 635 is amazing im shour it took hours to even make it move half as good he is probly thought he was almost gone alot he is skilled in that thing
Dude that thing capable of move a load at a time, ran 6 wheeler for a while
Great video Tim love watching the Tigercat work And Chad work his 637 hope I got that number right
My dad had a friend that cut small under brush and chipped it on site for fuel wood. He worked in Mississippi and Alabama. They would ahead of timber crews before the timber was cut,they said that by doing this the under growth would not come back as fast. Are there anyone still doing that?

Wat that new cutter cost
They are $600,000.
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting
Awesome 🏁
I bet that tightened Derrick's old sphincter up! Or he needed to change his shorts. I would have been changing my shorts shorts had it been me. Great video!
THATS A GREAT COMBO BUDDY !
Great stuff really enjoyed that!!!!
Does that cutter weigh more then a 859m?
830D is about 72,500 roughly , Deere 859M is nearly 80,000 . Closer to Tigercats 870 size . Depending on how each is outfitted of course . Longer tracs , counter weights and cutter heads ,fuel capacity etc . Retired logger ,just trying to help you out .
It was handling a dam big tree I hate when they get stuck in your arms and try to pull you over without a 360 head.
Does the cab on the 830 self level or is that an operator function?
I am pretty sure it is a operator function tim has said in Previous videos
Daniel Eyster yeah the buttons that control the tilt are on the joysticks.
@@brentmedders I was pretty sure. Tim did a video on the controls once
Man when Derrick tipped over like that I about dropped my phone. Great video
Your be surprised how much I would take to tip one over. I run non leveling Deere 903 Deere buncher and you can be on a pretty dirty side hill with a lot bigger wood than that and dumping down hill she will come right up off the ground and you just dump and keep goin.
