Swamp Loggers with Bobby Goodson, lets go into the swamp

[@tracycastleberry9040]

Been watching the Goodsons for a while when I could catch swamp loggers on TV. It amazes me what they can go through with their equipment. Haven't seen you on for a while. I like your channel too. I learned a long time ago running air boats don't go in any further than you are willing to walk out. How they put that equipment in places that could swallow it up is awsome. Keep it up I like watching all of you.

[@calvinh.8882]

I got to meet a couple of brothers in their 80's, that were swamp loggers here in Florida starting back over 60 years ago. Now the stories they had and the way they had to log was just off the chain! They didn't have the machines we have today, so they had it really hard! But they loved it and did it for over 50 years before they just couldn't do it anymore. Sad to say they both passed away in the last 2 years, but I'll never forget hanging out with them at the hunting club and hearing their stories about logging.

[@hermanmclean311]

The smile that you have is not one tenth what you give to us, thanks Mr. Tim.

[@malevolent_70]

Most of us who have been watching you for so long feel like we know you personally. I feel the same way about the Goodsons after watching Swamp Loggers for so long, as well as the Goodson All Terrain KZbin channel. Y'all are all just normal, regular, easy to relate to people. Really enjoyed this series, Tim.

[@gregstone670]

I have really enjoyed these three videos with Bobby and his crew. Thanks Tim for taking the time to visit with them up here in N.C. and LATER TATER!

[@kylesalter7914]

Tim as a fellow logger I love your stuff and really enjoy listening to you talk about logging like the last 10 minutes of this video. These 3 videos with Bobbys crew are absolutely as good as it gets, awesome stuff

[@pootietang9947]

These videos gives me hope for the world. People with different backgrounds come together and make a business successful. Great series Tim.

[@stevensmall9398]

Bobby seems like a good guy and takes care of his crew as much as he can.

[@robertsimpson772]

I liked all the videos in this series. Bobby Goodson, Logger Wade, That Chipper Guy, and you are my favorite logging channels on KZbin. You can learn alot from the different ways other loggers operate. I'm a carpenter by trade and started watching logging videos to see the where and how the process begins.

[@robeagerton6227]

I wish you could have met my Grandad we lost him back in March at 92 years old. He started as a kid working for his Dad, worked with his brothers, sons, and later grandsons. He started with horses and cross cut saws and followed it to modern equipment. He had some great stories.

[@nathanh3975]

Sorry foe your loss

[@clintonstubbs2319]

Great video series of the Swamp Loggers! I loved watching the tv show and have been watching Goodson All Terrain logging on KZbin. Man I always liked watching you and them and like how y'all take pride in what you do. I am a nurse by occupation but I am a farm and forestry guy at heart. I love all three and I guess you don't get all of that out of it if you don't enjoy it. Most people spend their time complaining and all of that but people like y'all and like me and many of other keep this nation going each day. I have kind of a long winded comment but I appreciate people like you showing the world what y'all really do each day. God bless all of you.

[@jamesfreeman2980]

About to retire myself from law enforcement. I love to watch the videos. It is one of the shows I look forward to watching after a long day at work.

[@cluelessbeekeeping1322]

Just curious, how many people have you murdered while in law enforcement? Do you enjoy murdering more or less than destroying lives? Are you one of the 40%+ of law enforcement personnel which beat their spouses (FBI stats).

[@larryporter6792]

Great Video...good to see the Bobby Goodson's Swamp Logging crew, clambunk, and those new trucks...great video, educational...thanks

[@glenharris9072]

Thanks for showing men who love what they do and it's clean home show thanks

[@scottlambert2949]

Great video and nothing can stop that tigercat 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@stephenyoung6115]

Bobby, you guys are some tough cookies and i feel like ya'll are family. Love ya'll and miss watching ya .

[@billmckelvey602]

It`s cool to see the other end of the operation. Thanks Cotontop3

[@matti1469]

8:50 I always wondered, how they unload it, wasnt shown in 37 episodes on discovery. Your video is GREAT!! How did he turn around to grab the logs in the swamp? is the road wide enough to turn ?

[@ericlakota6512]

Amazing they can even log the places boby goes

[@chuckgulledge2304]

You boys know how to log, best in the business

[@marksparkplug7758]

Great job on the series of vids with Bobby and company CT3! Take care.

[@pmtips4482]

Logging is an amazing industry, no matter the location. Thanks for sharing!

[@georgevalencia1045]

I live in Arizona became handicap couple years ago but I could work your company could be one to look too just the way Bob treats his workers it's beautiful keep it up senor

[@gordonbright7106]

Thanks Tim for taking the time to do Goodson video. Turned out real good .

[@marco74austin62]

Wish I could get into your profession, most of my uncle's did. But I chose different path, but always loved go to work with them when I was younger. I really miss it now, they have all passed away, but I still love it..take care timbo be careful...

[@SwimminThelake]

Great video, Tim! You put us right into a new episode of swamp loggers. I definitely share your thoughts about logging, too!

[@DA-zm3oh]

Tim,thanks a bunch for ur long travels to give all of us a perspective on different logging sites and how they operate,a lot of hard work u do filming and bringing it to us,great work man..keep it up..i Look forward to ur videos every morning..

[@tracydavis3149]

Wonderful video today Tim. Love watching Bobby and his crew. Tim and your brothers rock logging to. LATER TATERS

[@roberttipton3045]

This was an awesome series! You and Bobby are class acts!! Thanks for the videos.

[@JoshuaSmith-xw6jp]

That f**cking mud and water would get old real fast!! And this actually looks to be one of his drier tracts. Really liked these videos a lot though so thank !

[@allanwirkkala5689]

Great series Tim,I really enjoyed it,all the years I logged now retired,not by choice but still can't get enough of it ,guess it's in my blood,the Wirkkala family had a lot to do with engineering equipment for logging way back from the early 1900s ,here in the northwest,keep em coming brother you do a great job,stay safe,

[@baccerbuggy]

Enjoyed the videos & appreciate Bobby let you spend time with the employees. Enjoy just seeing things at work, not just short little clips. Thanks.

[@dancrafton89]

Great job Tim some great videos. Like you'll Bobby has got some good employees and man has to be good to work for to keep employees that long. You'll stay safe and God bless.

[@rajbeekie7124]

Tim, I appreciate your desire to share your logging experience. I feel your pain when you say, "There is no book on logging." To help you, I have decided to write a book on logging. It will be called, "The ABCs of logging: Anyone Can Do it." I have never cut down a tree. However, I now believe I am an expert. My logging experience is watching your videos. On a serious note, I do like living vicariously through your experiences. Thanks

[@scottb7839]

Great job !!!Keep making these videos love watching shows about hard work im a blue collar guy myself and America needs to see stuff like this god bless

[@gregbraddy1497]

Tim, if you are interested in talking to people in the logging industry. You should contact Mr. Charles Hill from Allentown, Ga. He was the first person to run a processor in the middle Ga. area. He runs a chipper and the processor on the same crew. He buys his own wood and is a super nice guy. He runs his business as Hill Brothers logging.

[@jdatwood7086]

I wonder why Bobby would use a clambunk skidder or even the big grapple skidder rather than a large tracked forwarder with a loader? All the logging I’ve seen him do over the years seems to be pretty long skids and you’ve got a loader or two in the swamp and three skidders doing the work a couple forwarders can do.

[@michaelwebb4149]

It's less expensive.

[@juniorraines1042]

I will have to agreeing with you on that video it was awesome. I have enjoyed all three of them hope you have a safe trip this week. Thank you for the hard working you put into them

[@michaelbaumgardner9493]

Good afternoon. Thank you and Mr Bobby. Well done.

[@ericlakota6512]

You dont notice how big the bunk load is tell you see the loader unloading him and then it shows how big of a turn he has

[@CarterWHern]

You are a good man Cotontop.

[@cynthiaherr9029]

Great bunch of guy's Tim, Now that's MUD..LOL Have a great day out there Tim..

[@patkelly7999]

Great series Tim, huge respect to all Ye logging men, hope You and Jill are enjoying yourselves in Maine:):)

[@DavidGrassSr]

Don't change a thing Tim, your right up there with Superman dude, just put'm up and we'll watch'm ?

[@calvinh.8882]

I have no clue how I missed this video, but I'm so glad I went to your page and seen it. Awesome video!

[@terrysaunders8948]

love the logging vidoes thank u for them tim god bless all the loggers out ther

[@TheKING69420]

I work logging in South East North Carolina in 70 80 early 90s I run loader it hard work but I love it .

[@kennysmith6185]

Still can't believe an automatic in a logging truck !! I'd want the old Cat back to !!

[@tonyburelle6633]

Been an excellent set of videos, just like your operation, I love the logging life

[@jdiggindirt]

Man glad to see you down in out neck of the woods shot y'all where only 10 miles from my house where they where working. Good old nc swamps and Mr Boddy is a great man one of the nice people I have meet

[@derrickpettit3489]

Hey Tim, just letting you know that these series of videos past three days have been awesome, top 3 of all your videos, something that your never forget, does that clambunk have same size motor as 635?, thank you for your travels to make these videos possible, I have been watching your channel for a very long time, best content KZbin has to offer, so I must say thank you for making that possible,meeting you one day would be awesome. Thanks again for sharing this awesome content. 💪🌲🌳👍

[@cotontop3]

Yes it is the same motor.

[@davidmorgan2980]

Great videos, I love the big equipment but I also like your shop videos, keep them coming

[@nathanbrodeur]

Tim that Bobby Goodson has a great sense of humour

[@tonym109]

Wayne reaching for that stick 🤣👍🏾

[@wesleygrogan5780]

good job tim . glad to see you doing stuff with bobbys crew. the legend of the swamp. who is doing your job loading back at home and i bet they miss u there .a good loader man is hard to find lol.

[@Jacob_6420]

Another killer video tim, hope you connect with other logging outfits to film. Would really be a joy to see.

[@johnwhicks8687]

Really great series of videos. That’s some nasty working conditions

[@jackdauphin7741]

Really enjoyed this series of videos. I do wish Bobby will come to Mississippi and see the way you and your family work. Doesn’t he call it tennis shoe logging? Would like to hear that conversation comparing the different ways. Have a great day.

[@kevinr.lemieux9982]

Great video Tim thanks for sharing safe travels sir see you Friday 👍😀

[@cotontop3]

I get on plane in morn to head that way.

[@christopherhobbs6702]

Great video Tim,2 of my favorite loggers an makes me love my job in the woods that much more,wouldn't do anything else

[@matthewclarke7993]

You ct3 are a inspiration to guys like me. Fallowing your dream. And going after it.

[@xnsheffield]

I can prolly get ya in contact with some ol Kentucky men who logged with jackasses and horses. Used comealongs and just all sorts of clever ways to get them trees here in eastern Ky. Big trees deep hollers. Worked their asses off. Done a little of it myself but with a small farm tractor and with friends.

[@denniscollins1857]

Now those guys are hard core loggers.

[@B422TMack]

Tim I know I'm about 2 to 3 weeks late watching the Bobby Goodson Video series. But Awesome Job & Awesome Vidja Series Bud.

[@woodcutter6235]

That’s cool. Would like to make a trip and check out all you guys jobs.

[@johnrtrucker]

What are the benefits to those top load skidders as opposed to a standard grapple y'all got in Mississippi? I'm assuming you keep more of the trees off the ground and more forward all to help with traction and ground compaction but I'm just guessing there lol

[@jamescarter1500]

Bobby's first clambunk was actually a prototype! Started out as a 630 skidder. Tigarcat took it apart in the center and put the clambunk on the back. Before the bougie tractor's were even for sale I think. I ust to put 17-18 loads a day on it with the shovel and durley would carry it to the hill. They ust to drop the wood out on the hill and a skidder kept the loaders fed. Ole Bobby's the real deal. Goodson to the core

[@MrShanghai34]

My uncle used to cut and sell pulp wood. My cousins and the rest of us were unpaid laborers. Funny how that worked out.

[@bubbathrift5498]

The 635 is a beast and can haul a massive turn of wood but the clam bunk really brings a turn in when it comes. You don’t know what kind of beating the skidder drivers take until you actually get in the cabs on a shovel road. You didn’t happen to run into any of those big waterheaded copper moccasins while you were there did you?

[@lovableted]

love watching your video i'm from Maine i was raised around Bangor i live in howland Me. now

[@cotontop3]

Thank you Kenneth, I was at the logging show last year in Bangor.

[@johnfaulkner8766]

Bobby and crew get it done and don't seem like anything but swamp is some scary shit

[@billy-bigpapasmith574]

Great videos

[@gregbraddy1497]

Tim, exactly no 2 tracts of timber are the same. The ground you work on changed from tract to tract.

[@wolfpierce9157]

Hey CT why does he pick them out of the grapple & not just drop them ? Does it save time ? Is there different wood In the stack so he is sorting them out ? I used to cut fire wood so I would cut green wood to cure for the next season so I would sort the wood for loading.

[@guido2110]

Some dam good video's you out there with them other guys ,its like a brotherhood you all got good vidja!!! 😁

[@miketilley3930]

Yourself and Mr.Goodson both shoot for that 100 load mark, is that common with many loggers in the industry ?

[@javensentipps5402]

Like how it looks on d inside of them new trucks

[@bobmillan]

Another great video. Thank you for the fantastic content

[@n2tazmania]

Once you get sawdust in your eyes. You will never get it out.

[@dctw4678]

What's the benefit to running a clambunk vs a regular skidder?

[@remb9614]

How does that skidder with the grapple up on top get a load?

[@duanegordon6430]

Loved the three video series Tim.

[@mikewawrzkiewicz3741]

This was a cool series interesting to see how things continue to change like the automatics in the trucks you sure got some good coverage and some cool interviews see ya Tim Napa mike

[@farmrrick]

The only place I think a straight stick is still better is on ice .

[@jdiggindirt]

Tim what you think you ready for some swamp logging now with your crew lol heck of a way to make worried all the time about water lol

[@charleslawler7567]

Great video of what you’re doing

[@ericlakota6512]

Those singles are where its at boby sead they dont make them any more

[@amosmoses8718]

Miss see you n the crew on Tv Bobby.

[@tooligan113]

Hey cotontop3 you remind me of Kenny C from Southpark all grown up. As a youngster i can see you wearing an orange parka out in the woods. LUCK *-)

[@dwightjones5826]

Those boys work hard all day long

[@robertbradford2734]

Bobby's clambunk sounds more like your 635d...👍

[@OkieDoke18]

Same engine. The 635e are quiet

[@TermiteBenny]

Those are some long pulls to the deck.

[@marco74austin62]

Does the shovel carry a bigger load tim?

[@michaellindblom8331]

Great video as always or great with the camera but this series was out standing awesome

[@dannythomas2425]

Great video Tim aren’t you glad do don’t work in that stuff every day Getting down serviceing your equipment would be a challenge watching for cottonmouths

[@lowtech5530]

What's the strangest thing you have ever seen in some of the swamps Bobby? I had a Bigfoot encounter in 2014 on my property early one morning here in southern Mississippi. Have you or any of your guys ever had an encounter with anything similar or you had rather not talk about it?

[@billy-bigpapasmith574]

Great video like it a lot

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Love the video Tim!!

[@BRaines549]

I was watching your latest video, yesterday, where you were doing clean-up after the storm; it was muddy and wet around the creek bottom and you mentioned Bobby Goodson. Before falling asleep, I wondered if you'd met him (Bobby) previously, and then today KZbin put this video up front and center on my page. I'm leaving the house now to buy me a "Lottery Ticket."

[@cotontop3]

Lol they are paying attention to you.

[@mikehornsby599]

Another great video, enjoyed that!!!!!

[@louisnemick1939]

Happy Brithday Tim.
