  • July 2021. Join me in the Bobcat T650 CTL skid steer and the Blue Diamond severe duty cutter as I tackle our entire 150 acre Southern Illinois farm and mow the entire trail and road system. I have not bush hogged yet this year so everything is very overgrown, but I think I can remember where all of the trails are! We literally have miles of trails and road throughout our Southern Illinois farm, and this is the first time mowing them this year! Speaking of our trail system, after today's mowing, and some new upgrades and warranty repairs to our Polaris Ranger XP 1000 Northstar, I hope to put up a new UTV trail riding video in the near future taking a minute to relax and ride all of the freshly mowed trails throughout the farm! Thanks for joining me today, I hope to see you on some future episodes of all of our country living adventures, land management projects, tractor, mini excavator and skid steer projects, wildlife conservation projects, Kioti tractor projecs, DIY rustic barn wood projects, our Kentucky farmhouse rehabe project, and much more country living adventure here at Kapper Outdoors! We keep things REAL here, no fake, or staged bs! Thank you! Kapper Outdoors, living the dream, one acre at a time.

    With all the rain we've been getting, I snuck in a mowing yesterday afternoon. I love mowing on a rider or pushing makes no difference but what really seals the deal is cleaning the equipment afterward. Dang it Kapper don't make me drive across Illinois to clean yours! I expect to see a wash and wax video by next week. 😂😂😂

      Perhaps he will add a blower on top of the cutter to keep the top free of debris.

    great brush hogging video -but with the skid steer--i was waiting for u to go trim ur road as it looks like it could use a haircut-lol.
    now when are u gonna show us the Kitoa and that 12 ft batwing mowing some? ha!

    • @kapperoutdoors

      I should have trimmed the road a bit, but did not make it that far. I am eyeing up a brush cutter for the mini and that would be the cats meow for that road ditch that is washed out!

      In other videos he mentioned taking Bobcat for service. Knowing how compulsive he is I suspect he keeps up with his maintenance schedules.
