You Betcha, Knocked that Job out 👍🏻. Looks Good Buddy .! I appreciate the Message Sam ! Take Care Evert

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks Evert. The D5 whipped that job around pretty good. Sam

[@mikec8519]

Thanks for the message. Diesel is as always, a fine project manager.

[@tristardiggin]

Yes Sir. Diesel is a great project manager. As long as you let him nap and pat his head you can get by with anything... Sam

[@LifeWithChase]

Some of the best d5k footage on KZbin. Does good for a legal width dozer. A Lot of power and weight in a compact package!

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks, I really appreciate that! And I agree 100% that dozer is impressive each time I use it... Sam

[@ditchdigger2]

Yep those trees had a classic case of “blade disease”. Always great filming!

[@tristardiggin]

Yup, they went down pretty easy. I keep checking your channel for a new video too. Thanks, Sam

[@DunsmoreMovingDirt]

That ground hasn't seen daylight in a long time. Might get some grass growing now. pushing over really good, keep having fun. Good message.

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks James. Very overgrown but It cleared up nice. They can see where to put their building now. I bet you would agree that any day in a dozer is a good day. I heard you say you have been building ponds for 50 years. That is impressive....

[@Kempfkattle]

Nice work Sam! That dozer is really impressive! Message was spot on, enjoyed the story about the heifer, there always had to be 1 crazy 1 in the bunch. lol

[@tristardiggin]

Lee, I appreciate the feedback on the message. And glad you enjoyed it. And yes there is always 1 crazy 1. Even if you haul her off there will be one to take her place 🤪. This dozer is a champ, impresses me every time I climb in it. God Bless, Sam

[@patrickstephens4158]

I never knew knocking down pines was easy. Enjoyed the video

[@tristardiggin]

CAT power 😁. Hey, thanks for the comment, I appreciate it...

[@kevindesha2959]

I can watch the dozer push trees all day long!!!

[@tristardiggin]

Me too! That dozer is just an amazing piece of equipment. You can do fine grading or heavy pushing. It likes both.😁 Thanks...

[@billhickman4826]

That D5 was stronger than I thought it would be.

[@tristardiggin]

It surprises me too! Sometimes I think I will have to cut roots and then it pushes it right over. Thanks, Sam

[@jimmytew9468]

Sam that was a great message! I'm slowly watching your past videos. I'm glad I found your channel. Be Safe Out There

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you Jim! Sounds like you are on a Tristar Diggin marathon. 😁

Nice!

Awesome video and message 👍 Thanks for sharing

Thanks Jon. That was a fun job. Thanks for watching the message, I appreciate it...

[@MyTractorGuy]

Nice work! I love clearing stuff. I would have like to seen a video of you trying to catch that cow. 😂Great message.

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks. I enjoy clearing land too. Makes a real transformation on a piece of property. Wow! That heifer was CRAZY!!! I Haven't been afraid of very many but that one was a stone cold killer...🤪🤣😁

[@jamesbreault5762]

Good stuff Sam

[@tristardiggin]

Thanks James. Another job in the books and feeding the piggy bank... Sam

[@robbinstruckinglandclearin786]

Hey friend looks like a fun job

[@tristardiggin]

Yes Sir, any day in the dozer is a great day! Thanks, Sam

[@markrunion1769]

Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Now that Bobby Keith is gone we have several new folks in the area that haul (Tri-Star Trucking). Bobby and his dad hauled lots of rock and lime to our farm on Springplace Road over years. Great video and message!

[@tristardiggin]

Hey Mark, welcome to the channel. Thanks for subscribing and commenting. I'm not too far from Springplace road. I'm about halfway between Benton and Etowah just of 411. You will definitely recognize some of the areas in the videos. I've seen several of the Tristar trucks running around. Not sure where there place is at, very nice trucks though. Glad you enjoyed the message!!! God Bless, Sam

[@markrunion1769]

Hi Sam, in my younger years I spent a lot of time in those hills, and especially that river fly fishing. I still have some property in Coker Creek but don't get up there nearly as much as I would like. I watched your "How to bid excavation jobs" video and immediately recognized the majority of the time you were traveling west on Hwy 64. Tristar Trucking is located on Springplace Rd (south of Hughes Lake Rd turn off). We have a small cattle herd (19 mamas). We purchased a bull from Greg Judy in 2020 and the results have been outstanding. Looking forward to watching more videos on your channel! Thank you for taking time to make them. I know it is way more work than it appears.

[@tristardiggin]

Thank you Mark I appreciate that. I figured you would recognize some of the scenery. Coker Creek is a great area a lot a beautiful places all around. I appreciate you recognizing the work it takes to make a video. I try hard to make them worth watching and coming back to watch more. It is my intent to provide clean entertainment (unlike so called real TV) and a message of hope from the Lord!!! Sam

[@larrymercer3448]

Diesel did a really good job

[@tristardiggin]

He is a great helper...

[@floridabrushanddirt2482]

Looking good sir.

[@tristardiggin]

Hey, thanks! I appreciate it...

[@jistruckinggrading364]

Good video I have always loved to run a dozer I wish I had one now I guess I have run a JD 650g the most and D65 Komatsu good massages I needed that

[@tristardiggin]

Yes Sir, glad to hear the message was something that helped. I really like running the dozer no matter if it's clearing, building a road or hogging dirt. If I ever got in a D10 I would be ruined.

[@jistruckinggrading364]

I ran a cat d6h track one time that was a strong dozer

[@gouran21]

Very powerfull little dozer, i wonder if it would be better to use some kind of forestry mulcher to do this job without leaving fallen trees

[@tristardiggin]

Forestry mulchers do a great job of getting rid of the trees but it leaves the stumps. In an area where you plan to build and do grade work it is much hard to deal with the stumps unless you take them out along with the trees. But, you are right, if your just Cleaning up the property the mulcher would do a great job... Thanks for watching and commenting. Sam

[@gouran21]

@@tristardiggin I saw mulchers that works up to 30cm deep in ground so no stumps after all

[@tristardiggin]

Yes Sir, that would get most of the stump for sure...

[@lakepinesfarm1394]

Doors open no yellow jackets.

[@tristardiggin]

No evil yellow jackets that day. But I came back there a couple days later and cut in a new driveway. I got stung just below my eye and ankle. 😡😩

[@smithworx1091]

That dozer would pair up real nice with a 313... just sayin 😬

[@tristardiggin]

Yeah! Guess YOU better go get YOU a shiney bran new one 🤪 . Man you are right they would be a great combo. I hear a 313 calling my name... Sam

[@stacycarroll1087]

Just wondering if you ever seen Bigfoot in your neck of the woods I have a friend that has some land in harden County

[@tristardiggin]

Well, I haven't seen Bigfoot but I have seen some pretty rough looking characters around these parts...😁🤣

[@stacycarroll1087]

I deer turkey hunt up there

[@tristardiggin]

Definitely lots a wild game around in TN, for sure...
