    I have the 72” Quick Tatch Utility HD direct hydraulic drive cutter with the optional front brush guard on my Bobcat S650 with standard flow hydraulics and steel tracks. It’s a beast. This tool is clearly something they intended to make Best in Class. It screams over engineered. I take it into heavy growth Missouri forest to clear trails and also brush hog fields. Will easily take down the occasional 5” hardwood tree and withstands hard abuse. With the front brush guard you can raise the unit up, point it downward on shallow rooted trees like maples and push over 10-12” trees. You can rake the sides of trees with it to de-limb them. The V notched on each front side let you slowly bite into larger trees and work them down. The engineer said it right though. If you are wanting to take out large trees all day get a forestry mulcher. This is the perfect tool for cutting miles of trails in a day. Dan VanLier provides OUTSTANDING customer sales service and their tech service has returned calls ON THE WEEKEND to keep my equipment running. “Warranty” to them means “we don’t go by dates - we go by is the customer SATISFIED” This is the best equipment company I have ever dealt with. I continue to make them my go to attachment provider

    Half the brush I see on these videos could easily be handled by my 45 year old Hardee 60 inch ditch bank mower. Three point hitch mount with PTO driven hydraulic pump driving a big hydraulic direct drive motor. The deck pivots 180 degrees from straight down to straight up 24 inches to the side of the tractor. On flat surfaces once you get a path started the tractor is always in the clear mowed area.
    Not much used in the last 25 years, before that changed the blades once because the mounting holes were elongated. Lost one blade when the mounting pin fractured. Never found it. Great for use on a farm but hard to transport with the deck on one side and the counter weight sticking out a like distance on the opposite side.

    Main takeaways from this are:
    1. You have to match the hydraulic flow rate to the right sized tool (and therefore use a big enough machine for the job);
    2. If the tree is obviously a job for a chainsaw, then Bob's your uncle; don't bring a brush mower to a chainsaw fight.

      @@bobivanski5635 He was being a smart ass. He's trying to discount the benefits of the blades not shattering. He's too slow to realize the fastest, hardest, sharpest, most dangerous thing that can turn into shrapnel, is the blade. A blade shattering is MUCH more dangerous than a rock.

    • @RenniaTrayvold
      @RenniaTrayvold 5 лет назад

      Not to say that high speed rock isn't dangerous, but yeah that's the gist of it. Outside of a few specific specimens of rock, steel has a higher mass per given volume, thus a chunk of steel the same size as a chunk of rock is going to carry a lot more energy with it. It'll also tend to be sharper overall. There are a load of other reasons why the blade turning into shrapnel is worse, and obviously a few exceptions where a rock is worse... but yeah. I mean either way, if the rock is going to turn into shrapnel, it's gonna turn into shrapnel. Nothing you can do about that. You can however prevent adding the blade to it so... props for the initial sarcasm from the OP, but I don't think they put much thought into it.

I have twelve acres of pasture that has not been maintained in about 15 years. I've basically got three choices: 1) wait until we rebuild the old skid steer we bought and put a brush hog on it, 2) bring in a fellow with a forestry mulcher and then rebuild the pasture (not a good idea, the grass is all alfalfa) or 3) bring in a few Scottish Highlander cows and rotational graze the pastures. Then we can put the horses on a decent pasture!

    That's nice looking mowers but, you need better blades. I've got a Bush Hog model 405. I used to have rocks the size you bent the blade on. Now I've got a bunch of smaller rocks. The blade looks about like it did when I put it on. I believe it was between 15-20 years ago. The roughest thing I've had that bush hog on is a stump. I've also knocked a few of them out of the ground. Not big oak. I had some pine and cedar stumps that had been in the ground for a few years.
