- Mowing Hard To Reach Places - Ventrac Boom Mower
Ventrac tractors are already capable of driving in places where most machines cannot. Combine that with the Boom Mower's reach of over 9 feet away from the tractor, and you have one of the best combinations of equipment in existence for managing tough vegetation on difficult terrain.
Speedy pond vegetation maintenance with the Ventrac Boom Mower means you can avoid the many hours of handwork it would take to do this with a string trimmer or other manual tools. The cutting head of the boom mower is a double-action sickle bar which is excellent at cutting a wide variety of materials in different positions.
Thin native grasses, cat-tails, shrubs, hedges, or even tree branches are all easily cut with the sickle head. The Boom Mower is able to destroy vegetation that is encroaching on this property and even reach across a small creek to skim that vegetation away.
The number one reason this set-up is superior is the speed and efficiency that it takes to complete the job. Most of what operators are cutting with the Boom Mower will be areas only accessible with a hand trimmer. The Boom Mower allows a single operator to do the job of multiple people with string trimmers in a fraction of the time.
In this video, you'll also find a review of the hand controls for the Boom Mower, which is the most commonly asked question. The arm is easily operated from the SDLA hand control for a 142" reach vertically from the ground and 115" reach from the outside of single wheels. And while most boom mowers connect to the middle or back of the machine, making them hard for the operator to see during use, the Ventrac boom mower attaches to the front of the tractor, providing the best possible visibility and control.
Applications include mowing steep ditches, reaching under fences and guardrails, cutting vegetation around ponds, lakes & streams, trimming hedges and other shrubs, and trimming tree branches along trails, pathways, or roads.

I only wish I could be so lucky too find a pond/creek with no hidden hazards like that one.
I truly love to build the MA 900 boom mower I have been building them for 3 years and they truly are a great product. Thank you for spotlighting it.
Very interesting. I would like a video about exactly the good bad and ugly around water, and how to clean the equipment afterward. As water and heavy equipment are not friends. Thank you
I feel a flail boom mower attachment would be better for most of this as a hammer head flail will eat through just about anything and the y-blade for the finer mowing/mulching.
Ventrac seems like a great mower but just too costly for an average home owner. I have a 2 acre property with a large hill that this would be great for but 35 grand for a mower is just too much. It a commercial type mower meant to be making you money every day.
What a cool piece of equipment!
The boom mower has been a very successful attachment for us! Interested in one?
I would have a lot of uses for one of these for all the trails I cut. Hope I get a chance to try one but there are no demo units around me.
Here in ireland or britain that be done with either a mcconnell or spear head flail on a compact tractor
NICE!!!
Boy could really use that to mow my ditch
I'd love to have that for my ventrac! I'm sure it's not cheap, nothing for a ventrac is cheap! I wonder if I can get a 30 year loan for that mower? Lol
Omg I just found out the price for this mower! $18,165.00 MSRP DAMN!!!!!
@@kowboy284 wow that's crazy! They obviously have a high income demographic of customers. Or commercial guys 😁
Your comments say it will trim tree branches. What is the max. diameter of the branches, and what happens if you run into a branch that is larger than will fit between the blades? Is the boom spring loaded to move out of the way, or will you break something on the boom?
John Evans. Tractor time with Tim has a ventrac and he uses this boom mower on his channel he shows what can happen and the brush it can and can’t cut. Real world uses.
@@montymatth2409 thanks! I had the same questions
@@Ryan.zelenski you’re welcome!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
good no weedeat the pond
It's cool, but dang 20k for that? I use a $650 handheld STHIL tool for same thing...if that pond bank had about 3-5 feet of 1-3 foot high growth, it would take up to 5-6 hours to cut it all. If it is less overgrown and spotty, probably 1 hour. Main appeal of a tool like this would be to be able to quickly cut it periodically so it's always maintained instead of 1-2 times per year.
I'm surprised that you are using a bar mower?? I would be using a 'mulcher'. (if they make that attachment)?
