Definitely cool to see the other ways of getting the trees to the mill. Thanks to them for letting you share that with us. Great video

[@stevespell2934]

Thanks for the opportunity to see other operations at work. Thanks for all you loggers do for us.

[@waltermattson5566]

It is fun to see how different loggers do it with different machines. Thanks for bringing us to watch too.

I enjoyed seeing another company, their equipment and how they operate. Cool video.

Great video Tim. Big difference between your operation and there’s. Time is money.

[@timhood6970]

Nice video, brings back memories of running a Deere 648D, except we had a delimbing gate, and had to push every pull with the skidder through the gate to delimb it! Was slow and a lot of work, but I sure enjoyed it, but still was glad when quitting time rolled around!

[@swampratt36]

We ran dual Prentice with delimbers n bucks like that , had extendable down riggers . To move we just snatch em with the 748G . Then had 2 duece n a halfs with a 5th wheels shuttleing trailers in and out all day so all drivers had to do was drop n hook . Each truck would get 35 loads a week like that on a 60 mile round trip . Thanks Tater 👍

[@tknaturescapes7448]

The difference in the production of this style of logging equipment vs using the track equipment that TDK uses is amazing. Granted the terrain and the type of timber being cut are notable factors. Great video.

You should have brought the drone! Laughing at you going back and forth across that ditch trying to get a shot. Hah. Good video as always, Tim.

[@jessesewell7922]

Good stuff cotontop. I was excited when you did the sit down wrap up segment because I thought you were going to go into some of the numbers behind why you have a conventional tree-length job that is all Deere. Maybe next time. Great videos by the way. JS

[@timberslasher4899]

As an owner of G2, G3, and L series skidders I will have to say that Deere jumped light years ahead in 2015 when the L series came out. Better trannys, power, weight, and ease of operation.

[@carlwilliams8354]

Good video. The cutter man was doing a good job on some pretty steep ground. Hanging by the seatbelt all day is no fun. That was a tough tract with terrain and poor size wood.

[@alwayshungry24]

nice. awesome to watch the machines wworrk

[@daveschuetrum576]

That guy doing the cutting is pretty good. I would have a case of Pucker Butt. It does not take much of an incline when I am on hills with my own tractor.

Up here in Jersey that is normal woods for us we don’t do any login we just do straight clearing my boss tried to get into doing some logging when we were clearing but he got too aggravated with it so we chip all the trees And tub grind all the stumps and any debris left behind after chipping

[@brentmedders]

Great video tim the pull through delimber looks to be slower than the processor that you all run. Is this true. Enjoyed watching your video thank you for sharing

[@richwielechowski5191]

Sure seems a lot slower and less efficient vs your operation. Good looking green machines.

[@liambrooks2330]

We'd be topping our hardwoods out in the woods and yarding them at road for the truck to pick up; all the cutting by hand and skidding with small dozers and skidders 450s and 550s, 225> TJ, 440 and 540 JDs: We're hardwoods mind ya.

[@bdougie3807]

I’ve heard a lot of good things about the 437’s. Deere had to step up the forestry division with the L series skidders to compete with Tigercat.

[@BrianBreaks100]

I still don’t think the L skidders compete with the tigercats

[@firemedicseven]

I bet those pull through de-limbers are hard on the booms and pins on the loaders

[@feedwheels623c]

James Kinkead only if your snatching an jerking the wood around. I've never had problems out of the pins an bushings in mine. The booms on these are built for it

love the video Tim. I think i would stick with Kevin and chad. thank for the look at other loggers its cool.

[@eugeneodell1543]

Very nice to see Tim. I really think that your company has a more efficient way to cut timber. Processing head instead of knuckle boom loader and drag through delimber is just quicker I think. Track buncher are very good quick and more percise machine. My opinion!! Have a great day and thanks for another good vid.

[@kylesalter7914]

Eugene O'Dell that processor costs twice the price or more than a trailer mounted loader with pull through delimber. Track cutter is twice the price as a wheeled one also. It’s got to be way more efficient to pay for it

[@cotontop3]

You also gotta figure in the longevity also.

[@ats_nigel8860]

what machine did yall buy that changed the way yall logged

[@cntslesfabrication]

What's the difference in price between there equipment they use for loading deck and your setup?

[@gregbraddy1497]

That looks like some bad ground that makes for some tough logging.

[@roberttipton3045]

Excellent content Tim! John Deere, Tigercat, or Caterpillar. At the end of the day we’re all just loggers trying to take care of our families... In your opinion, are the tracks far and above tire chains as in where you can go?

[@smithkennels2532]

Chains r useless once you ever run a set of tracks lot less maintenance and everything

[@leejamestheliar2085]

Excellent vdga, but now I am late to do my monthly shopping trip to town! 🙄 Happy days to ya! And thanx.........

[@DA-zm3oh]

Tim,watch ur stuff all the time bro,even the videos I've seen already,lol,i know to each is own,but,now I see why y'all spend 700 grand on Kevin's track cutter,he is more productive especially in steep ground like that,he could stay in one spot cut 4 or 5 trees and swing and stack them and make it easier for the skidders,ur loader and the track processor are just more productive,but I guess the trade off is ur equipment is a hell of alot more expensive and cost more to repair,but like u said it took y'all years of busting y'all tail to get what y'all have,doesn't come overnight,cool video to show different types of machines used in different ways,thanks for the time making ur vdeos...I wonder if they ever considered buying the track cutter tdk traded in?

[@samgural4340]

Is this Weyerhaeuser timber?

[@craigschofield64]

Good Morning Mr. Tim, On that JD Cutter they had tracks or chain things on the front wheels. Question...Is there a reason they only are using the track/chains on the fronts and not on all 4 tires? It seems that it would be better to have them on all 4 tires. But I could be wrong especially since I haven't a clue of what I am talking about....lol Be safe and I hope you have a blessed day.😊

[@kylehaskell7351]

Crazy Craig 4 is better but could be cost thing for only having one set but only running one set having them on the front the weight of the trees gives the better traction to back up the hills now skidders you want the set on the front as well

Well said.
