    Great idea to use a company with the forestry mulcher. Amazing amount of work to get done so quickly. Definitely worth the investment. Your time is worth the cost!

    Had a young man come out for 3 days last year. The most amazing use of man and machine I ever did to reclaimed many acres of over grown brush and cedar trees. Now I’m pasturing bacon on the cleared forest and left the hickories to mature. My face hurt for days I was smiling so hard!!!

    Jason, I'm 75 yo & never even heard of a forestry mulcher, much less got to watch one in action. Your property is beautiful.
    Hugs & blessings for your family 🙏🏻🌺🌼🌻🌹❤💙💚

    I did this when i bought 20 acres and built my home in NC…it was 2800 for 1.5 days of work, but i believe it saved me about 40 days of labor, the land was so overgrown and unmanaged…covered in poison ivy…once he got the trails in, i could get my equipment in and ive been cutting trees down, dragging brush…for about 2 years…still…tons more wildlife though…more turkeys, more deer…

    It’s amazing how much 1 machine can do in a day and you didn’t even break out in a sweat , a lot of people think it’s expensive to hire machinery but if you break it down in time saved you can move onto other projects instead of concentrating on one project for twelve months. Money well spent.

    i'm amazed! growing up on an 80 acre farm that we had to clear fence rows the same way you were, I wish we'd had something like this back in the 1970's

    • @denisewilson8367
      @denisewilson8367 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Yeah me too! In the early 60's there was only chainsaws to cut everything by hand with a lot of manual labor.
      The same for clearing /picking rocks out of the crop fields, by hand. And most were dumped in the fence rows along the fields. Now days they have a piece of equipment that goes on your skid steer to pick up rock. It rotates to shake out the dirt so you can just get the rocks.

    A forestry mulcher is a perfect machine to open an area and establish/reestablish the boudries. Or clear land to put in production as pasture or an area to build on. Great choice.

  • @arwoods1237

  • @Will7981
    @Will7981 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    A mini excavator with a quick detach system and auxiliary hydraulic connection (most come with that), you can put a mulcher head on it and do close to the same thing you just did here. Then of course you can take the mulcher off and use your buckets. Also, you can put things like augers on the excavator to dig fence post holes, cutter decks for bush hogging etc. Just some tips here to increase your knowledge of equipment since you said you are learning it.👍🏻

    You should really look into a compact tractor 4x4 with front-end loader with bush hog box blade, and then one get a plow a dirt scoop a disk or tiller, and a Harley rake. They also make a small forestry mulcher for small compact tractors now

  • @trueshot6969
    @trueshot6969 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That looks truly fantastic. If you do not mind the asking, how much did he cost you for the day? In my area it is well over $2500 just to rent one of those for a day. If he cost you anything less than $7,000 for the day, I would say it was a steal. You definitely paid for his expertise and not the machine.
    Just be aware that will all of that new sunlight on those areas, it will come back quick fast and in a hurry. You probably do NOT want clear the mulch out he made. that will help to keep some of the stuff from growing back, will help revitalize the soil and help your vehicles to not sink when it is wet.

Now you have a lot of time to do other important jobs. I really do enjoy your videos and watching your family tame this land. Best wishes for the future.

    I bought a forestry mulcher when first moved to a farm, fence lines grown over. Thick brush, 12” diameter trees, prickly pear cactus, mulched it all. A year later was some of the best native grass on the place, did not pick up any debris caused by the mulcher. But that would be your call. Also bought a skid loader and other attachments, it’s unbelievable what you can do with one of those machines.

    do you own a tractor if so get a flail mower attachment and you could knock this kind of thing out yourself and keep it maintained yourself.if you dont own a tractor look into a machine called a Skag its also a flail mower but one you can walk behind it uses chains to keep the weeds and growth down ..its strong enough to smash up bricks and stones if not over sized.

I wish I knew how to contact his company because we live very close to you guys and I bet he services my neighborhood too. You guys truly do have a brand new property now.

    I am currently running a similar mulching machine but about ten times bigger , kinda like a bulldozer with the same type of attachment then we have another head that will emulsify 18 inches into the ground , even busts up smaller rocks . It would do about six of your biggest trees at once , but costs 3/4 of a million dollars . Clear about 15 acres a day .
