ABANDONED Neighborhood - FIRST Mow In 5 YEARS (TALL Grass: Ventrac 4520)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 сен 2024
- This abandoned real estate development was ENTIRELY cleared for over a hundred houses back in the mid/late 2000's. Now, 15 years later, it has been abandoned back to nature except for the three homes that were built before the developer closed up shop and the front area that the city maintains.
We help them out by clearing a section of tall grass that desperately needs mowing they have ignored for five years, according to one of the neighbors we talked to. This was mowing tall, thick, dry grass with the Ventrac 4520 and HQ682 Tough Cut deck.
I started a @ventrac Owner's Group on Facebook, so if you are in the market for one of these machines you can ask any questions you need to and if you are a current owner you can give me some pointers and advice as I learn the ropes of this machine: / 485159326478163

Only 3 families live out there in the entire town? That's freakin' paradise if you moved there from a big city. Total peace and quiet. I hope I find something like that when I retire.
As always, great job, Brad! The city should really consider contracting you to do this work. Sometimes developments do fall through and leave issues like this behind, and they really DO need to be regularly serviced. Keep up the fantastic work! Cheers from Texas.
Quiet running, does a very nice job! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
i'm not sure why they'd pay him, considering he's doing it for free.
Don't get me wrong, the righ thing would be to pay him (or somebody)
Man that's a hell of a machine that you are working with on the grass and keep up the great work that you do for your community.
I appreciate you going back and showing that the grass was actually being cut. My dumb anxiety makes me worry over the dumbest of things lol.
@@Press1for uh.. If you're implying I would worry about that, I wouldn't. I'd mind my own business. The most I'd do is give them a friendly wave hello.
Good job, Brother! The drone shots were really cool! That Ventrac is almost unstoppable. It's a real workhorse! Thanks for sharing another great video. Have an awesome weekend!
I really do appreciate those who go out and help where there needs of help... 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Our country would look much better if more would get on board...
I just wanted to acknowledge your endless generousity and hard work that you put out there in your area. It is appreciated by so many. Thank you and God bless you and yours.
My allergies would be going crazy 30 seconds after I started mowing!
That Ventrac takes no prisoners! Nice job, Brad :)
That is THE coolest badass mower I’ve ever seen!
Thank you for doing your part in making Florida a better place for us all!
Your mower looks like it could compete in the Indianapolis 500!
It's so quiet! Amazing!
Hey, I liked that little fir tree!
This machine is awesome. Fascinating to watch you work with it. So glad you cut this area, and made it safer for the neighborhood.
Brad, you handled that Ventrac like you were out for a Sunday drive! Love the logo on the front of the beast. Great job, great video as usual!
Nice! The thumbnail makes it almost look like you're taking a mini combine harvester through a wheat field!
Brad may have a promising future in agriculture.
My thoughts exactly! (Grew up in wheat and pea country...lots of combines and trips to canneries.)
Question: isn’t the total mass/volume of combustible material the same as it was? I can see it might be incrementally safer cut than standing. I think pulling it away from the developed properties would be advisable. Hauling it away would obviously be too pricey. A burn pile safely away from the houses could work.
Less oxygen available to sustain the burn and when laying down it is able to prevent new growth and begin decomposing. I agree though, it needs to be hauled away to prevent the rats/mice/creatures thing he mentioned at the beginning
@@tylerfielder5582 thanks! Makes sense!
@@tylerfielder5582 the grass clippings should be removed, thee are online fertilizer so the grass will come back faster.
I have seen the fire department doing controlled burn training on stuff like that.
Nice job! Heck of a machine... very satisfying video!
Love how you can mow and operate the overhead camera at the same time. You are as amazing as the Ventrac!
teamwork makes the dream work
The man, the myth, the legend!
Whoa! That "Lawnmower" cut that small tree down! Nice. Very satisfying. Thank you for the content.
OK. Second video of yours I've watched. Now I want one of those !! That look like a great machine !!
Loved the video, would be awesome to see an update on if and when they do something with the plot :) just sorta interesting now
I work for a county road dept and one of our jobs is to mow the shoulders and ditches in our right of way and easements. Let me tell you, it is difficult to keep up with everything and a lot gets ignored unfortunately. I don't know about where you work but we are a small shop with only 10 guys and we are are responsible for just under 200 miles of roads. We have 4 boom mowers and 1 shoulder mower and somehow we manage to mow all the roads while still doing other projects, though it can take us all year to mow the roads just once.
Double cutting is what I call it had to do that sometimes at my parents place. I’m glad you did that because I certainly would have.
Yes! Thank you!
If unused real estate is returned to its natural state the local environment is improved through ground-level cooling, water retention, wildlife habitat plus there's no machinery wear & tear and no fuel is burned to create an unnatural biosphere.
Wow amazing answer thanks for your 2c
😂
Minus the dust, I'm jealous. That looks so much fun.
What an incredible piece of machinery and the tractor is pretty awesome too. Lol. Made short work of that tall grass and lone pine tree🫡
Wow, that was a quick snack for the beast!
Wow! That’s an amazing machine you’ve got there! Never saw one before! But then, I only had an acre! Holy moly! This thing takes care of everything except a cold drink delivered to the operator!
I'm working on a way to make that one happen! :D
That's a badass mower I've only saw them own gold course mowing and stuff like that but it done a heck of a job that's for sure
Damn, looks like part of a farm! You have major confidence to push through with that beauty. Love the video 💪
I am always amazed at the capability of the ventrac system. And the reason I call it the system it's not a mower it's a mechanical system that does many things.
Oh man, I would loved to have used my Flail mower on that one. Time to go scouting for something like this. Good job.
Now that Toro owns Ventrac, hope to see many more of these being used. They are incredible.
Great job! It's amazing how that thing takes small trees down. Loved the video!
watching from novascotia,Canada good job bless you
That was so great to watch but I bet was even better to actually do!! Again very impressed with how easily you can get to things on that Ventrac!
I love all of your videos copper Creek cut.
Amazing, regards from Scotland.
Glad to see you using a flail mower on this field. It never ceases to amaze me the landscapers who attempt to mow high grass and weeds with a homeowners rotary mower. In fact, I've never understood why every landscaper doesn't own a flail mower.
That's definitely not a flail mower. That's a bush hog! Ventrac calls it the tuff cut mower. flail mowers can't cut tree saplings like what you saw in the video..
Great video and great job.
That would be very easy to maintain with a 60” zero turn now that you have it manageable.
Hopefully the city sees that
Good Morning Brad ! Down from Maine in Florida Brother Navy John I’m in your Great State of Florida Brother in Coco Beach area love it! Still Enjoying your Channel God Bless Navy John
That mower is a beast! I’d like to see what it would take to even slow it down.
Man that looks like it would have been a perfect job for a ventrac frail mower attachment
Copper creek you did a great job
Great job.
Wow the camera angels and editing as well as your equipment has definitely upgraded!
Shout out from New Jersey!! You're doing a Fantastic Job Man!
Wow, I have mower envy now. What the heck is that thing?? I want!
When I built my house in Utah, I rented a big mower to the job. I sent up a drone to check the lot for large pieces of debris, and maybe any bodies. Nice job btw. 😅😮
Your videos are some of the best! Very enjoyable to watch
Great improvement. Feels bad for the 3 residents.
The one thing I actually like tremendously about the Ventrac is the TANDEM TIRES. It keeps them from sinking in and rutting a wet property. I wish my Kubota had that design!
Wow I hope you've pays well dear man to help so many.
Nice job! I bet the neighbors are very happy for your help. Definitely was a big fire hazard and like you mentioned, cuts way back on the ground critters!!!!
I love the ventrac and subscribed because of it.
If mower was mine ,,I would build a brush guard on the front of mower to keep branches and whatever off the hood and front of mower to keep it from getting all scrached up. Looks like you keep your stuff nice,, food for thought!!
the Ventrac really is just the BFG9000 of lawn care equipment
Brad, you amaze me. I’m trying to figure out HOW IN THE WORLD you cut that without wearing a mask! 😷.
I thought you looked good on the Ventrac before, but now that you have the new shirt color. LOOK OUT FLORIDA!!! There’s a new sherif in town. 🤠
Great work as always man! 💯
I like your uniform. Very professional.
Pretty work
Nice video Brad, I can see that big mower is coming in handy. 👍👍👍👍👍😉🇺🇸
Loving perpendicular mowing.
Looks much better now than it did! Great job!
What would some of these people do without you Brad? I know that field was just an invitation to some problems for the neighbor. Great job!! Loving the color coordination of the machine to the shirt. Always a must. 🤣🤣
Awesome job！
Great job, Brad. I'm love seeing that Ventrac do it's work!
what an absolute beast of a machine
Good job. Just did my first 15 acres...
Awesome video!!
I'm imagining a Secret of NIMH scenario in there where little Timmy is too sick to be moved before the tractor comes.
I would have left the Little Tree.
Amazing video Brad. I like the fact that you do this type of stuff for free in order for things to look better. The end product always looks great. Keep up the amazing work.
For free= RUclips views = money
Wow that's amazing looking
great job Brad. satisfying to watch. love your work ethic. awesome machines are half the battle. you seem to have made the right investment. keep up the fantastic content. take care.
Now the city can rake it... dry it... and bundle up in bails... and they are set... great job... and enjoyed the vid....
Great video!
That Ventrac has been a game changer for you!
Nice work 👍
awesome job...
What a machine!
Have you ever thought about getting the flail mower attachment? I think it would give you a way better cut
That was the flail mower.
Very satisfying
Nice tool , cuts well without thrashing . Good trap on the radiator . Good video 👍🇬🇧
The eight-wheeled beast wins again! Be Safe!
Nice machine you have there!
Great video
The copper creek ventrac special addition.👍
Good job mr.
These Ventrac videos are 🔥
Is the Central an all wheel drive unit? I am impressed by the fact that this unit rarely needs to stop, back up and run at dense material. It doesn't seem to get " bogged down" when it meets with dense growth. Impressive machine. I enjoy getting to see it work.
👍🏻 job, Brad. Very thick stuff to cut 😊
Love your Machine!!
I want one!!!!
No rats were harmed making this video.🐭 👏👍
Great job! Safety first alwats!!!!
Big fingers..always!
Another win for VenTrac !!!
I think that is one thing I don't like is that it leaves too much trash behind. I would be more impressed if everything was ground up afterwards. All of that laying their is still a big fire hazard. The other thing I don't like is it should be as wide as the outer duals because the outer tires run over what wasn't cut and mat it down. Plus it makes it harder to mow right up against stuff like fences and other things. I would've put the finish mower on afterwards to cut up all of the trash better. Other than that, it is a really good machine.
This is amazing machine. Great job!
Very nice 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nicely done
