As the Great John "Hannibal" Smith once said, "I love it when a plan comes together." - ;o) That was cool to watch. Thanks for sharing...

[@BIGALTX]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@markcdeyoung3118]

Man that little beast yank that big ole tree off that fence without breaking a sweat kind of impressing consider how much back angle it looked like he was pulling against but it sure flipped it right up and back over like nothing

[@BIGALTX]

That was extremely enjoyable to watch! 😊

[@lesterk9134]

Glad you had the option to use the ss. I’d have to use my pickup 😂.

[@BIGALTX]

Not sure a pick up would’ve done it. Depends on the pick up I guess 😊

[@DeanFamilyAcres]

Great real life physics!

[@BIGALTX]

So true… 😊

[@tambrasmith9707]

Awesome

[@BIGALTX]

Thanks Tambra. So glad to have gotten this done.

[@tradermunky1998]

Could have sunk a 4x4 post to prop the tree up indefinitely. Texas art! 😂

[@BIGALTX]

I put a 4 x 6 post under it couple of months ago. But… It did begin to sink down and would have eventually ruined the fence. It was time to yank it out of there. So happy that it worked out well 😊

[@UNVACCINATED20]

Off topic, my blackberry laterals are 4 to 5 foot long. Will they produce fruit if i trim them ? Does the length of the laterals determine how much fruit they produce? Last one, can you propagate laterals into new plants?

[@BIGALTX]

Yes, you can propagate laterals. I prune because the laterals are where you will make most of your fruit. So if you prune them, and they produce laterals, I think you will get more fruit than if you do not prune them.

[@UNVACCINATED20]

@@BIGALTX thanks for replying. I follow your advice and have done the same. However my laterals have grown to 4 and 5 ft long.

[@UNVACCINATED20]

@@BIGALTX u think pruning the laterals will make more laterals grow different areas. Im noticing usually just one set of laterals and they just keep growing

[@alansreviews]

yes, pruning will increase lateral growth

[@UNVACCINATED20]

@@BIGALTX what about pruning the laterals? I have a feeling I shouldn’t trim them. I ask because i have laterals that are 4 to 5 ft long. I watched all your videos but didn’t see anything on pruning the laterals.

[@ClickinChicken]

Lots of good firewood there! My parameters are all wrong, You all, don't think about it as much. Here it's the difference between watching you favorite shows in living room with your dad's old orange parka on!

A skid steer is the swiss utility knife of machinery.

[@BIGALTX]

So true! Thanks for sharing 👍🏻😎

[@rongrey2110]

Cost per acre?

[@BIGALTX]

The cost is per hour not per acre. It’s about $225 per hour. And of course it depends on what kind of vegetation they are having to clear as to how much they can do in an hour. If it’s small stuff, they can zip through it pretty quick.

Diesel and steel equals power

[@BIGALTX]

You betcha! 👍🏻😎
