[@rickyblanka4615]

I just purchased 5+ acres and used a neighbors bush hog . This would work good to cleanup afterwards! Rick

[@joseescobar4233]

Would work really nice for my Ranch

[@jeffreyanderson4993]

I have a giant willow tree in my yard that makes a mess every spring, this looks like it could do 90% of that clean up in minutes.

[@paule.maurice1521]

I have a smaller one, for a lawn tractor . I use it for twig removal, and dethatching. Takes a few passes, almost eliminates hand raking .

[@jacobhensley7132]

This would be perfect for my trails in my woods for the dirt bikes also when I help out with lawn installs! Great informative review!

[@craigimmel8640]

I have 6 acres with a lot of trees, a gravel drive way and live on a dirt road. When I decided that I needed a tractor I looked on you tube to find advice on what to get and found your videos to be the most helpful. I bought a new 1025 r with front end loader, 60 inch belly mower and a 4 foot brush mainly because of the information from your videos. With all the tree leaves that I have, the gravel drive way and dirt road, I really need one of these rakes, you perfectly demonstrated the exact uses that I could use it for plus some uses that I hadn’t thought of, I could see where it would be useful in a food plot that I plan I making in the near future. Your videos are the best and I always look forward to seeing what you come up with next.

[@jeffreysass2901]

I very much appreciate all the videos you have put out on KZbin. They are informative, instructional, and quite like we are talking face to face. They are honest in that when you don't know something, you make that clear as well. Safety is paramount and stressed, as it should be. I bought a used 2016 John Deere 2032r from a neighbor who was moving and it is a great little tractor. I use it to mow my fields (no longer have heifers) and swap out the mower deck for a snow blower in the winter. Your tutorials have helped me when it comes time to seasonally change over, I don't always remember (getting old) the procedure for taking off and putting on the loader and refer to the video to be sure I am not damaging anything. I have a number of attachments and saving to purchase at some point the Dethatcher and perhaps the Stump removal implement. It is clear you enjoy posting these many videos and it is also clear we as the viewers appreciate them. Thank you.

[@TxRhin057]

Always love your videos. I have gained an advanced degree in tractor tech thanks to you. As a recently retired man with a small acreage I am throwing myself into my new career as "gentleman farmer". :) The world has become a very tech savvy place and you and your channel have helped educate me in what is available and how it works. Keep up the good work.

[@JeremyNapierkowski]

You are absolutely right about that dethatcher having a ton of uses. I use a pull behind yard sweeper, but it is not robust enough for me to pull it through my woods like that dethacher would be to help tame my forest. Thank you for showing us more helpful solutions in real world situations.

[@texillini1]

I have a JD 1025R. It is perfect for my 5.5 acres. I bought it with just the loader, bucket and mower. Since then I’ve purchased the forks, 3 pt. rear quick hitch, straight blade, and the tiller. The more you use this machine the more you can find use for attachments. All of which helps keeps our properties looking nice. Nice video.

[@davekirgan981]

I received mine a couple of weeks ago. Assembled in about an hour, attached to my quick hitch and away I went. Detached about 4 acres in no time. Used a lawn sweeper to sweep everything up and detached again. Should have taken a picture of the pile of thatch. As high as my loader would pile it. Needs a receiver on the dethatcher so that I can run the sweeper right behind the tines. Feels a little pricey but it’s well built but still light to take on and off. Good purchase.

[@chevydmax1000]

Dethatching your lawn is one of the very important steps in maintaining a healthy lawn. Great product!

[@briankeller2284]

I purchased one of these for my 1025r . This this is great for over seeding and detaching. I bought it from Good Works tractor last year at this time.

[@jimmeyer9075]

Looks like an upgrade for my 2023e. The hla you sold me was something I should have purchased years ago. Can't go wrong with your suggestions.

[@denniscampbell6646]

Perfect solution for my mothers lawn that have several large pine trees. Removal has been impossible the past two years due to labor shortages.

[@billkilpatrick4927]

Hi, thanks for all your videos! I just inherited a tractor when my father in law passed and im learning all the uses for it and your videos have really been a blessing for me! Thanks again for all your info!

[@jamesyates5191]

I have 11 acres of mixed oak and pine which drop a ton of leaves and needles. This tool looks like the perfect tool to clean up the forest litter. I live in the west where the fire danger is very high in summer and cleaning up this litter would contribute to decreasing the chance of a fire spreading.

[@CT_Yankee]

If you have a decent piece of property to maintain and have a BX, this is a handy tool. Great for loosening embedded leaves that you didn't get up before the rains came. Also good for cleanup after dropping a tree for whatever reason - gathers up all of the little branches and twigs that are a PITA to clean up. Great for removing leaf litter in the woods if you're trying to expand your lawn.

[@joeward7941]

After watching your video on this earlier this summer, I purchased one for my 1025r. I have used it to dethatch, lightly refresh my stone drive, prepare a small area for seed, and freshen up my small pond beach area. Great implement to have and takes up very little storage room!

[@jasonmann1167]

I've been looking at one of these, and this video sold me. I have a mix of trees with alot of pines, and this would make clean up so much easier, as well taking care of the lawn.

[@brandonfoley1343]

My best friend is from Kalamazoo so evertime I watch your videos it makes me feel like we're sitting around relaxing like old times. God bless and thank you for all the informational videos!

[@goddukee]

I made a similar attachment 10 years ago. I wanted something to clear leaves and limbs for food plots deep in the woods. Turned out it did make a great looking seed bed. Now I use it for a number of uses around the farm.

[@robertparrish3795]

I really like watching your shows because they're not technical they're very informative thank you so much for sharing your videos with all of us

[@hockingcabinrentals6501]

Thanks for helping me as a new tractor owner. Have bought several things you have talked about to make my tractor safer and work more efficient..

[@Brad-vj6kj]

I just finished building a dethatcher very similar to this CMP dethatcher for roughly $100 in materials and a few hours cutting, welding, and drilling. I'm looking forward to trying it out this spring.

[@tlaloccutroneo8978]

I could've used this attachment before I put down sod! I used a box blade instead but I did struggle to gather up the small debris and roots with the box blade. I ended up doing most of the debris pickup with hand rake. Love the videos!

[@jamesyates5191]

I got to use my de-thatcher today for the first time. Wow what an amazing labor saving device for cleaning up pine needles and leaves. Eventually I’ll use it for its name sake function. Five stars.

[@williamknight5875]

Enjoy your videos, Thanks for the information.

[@dgiturbo3247]

More uses than I would have thought of… I like the gravel and trail maintenance ideas.

[@ballwm1]

I've purchased a couple things from GWT. Courtney is as real as it gets. I appreciate all the effort and time he and his crew (family) put into creating very watchable videos. Remember the sacrifices from 9/11 and honor all American heroes.

[@BrentConwaylds]

Thanks for the video, we bought one of these from GoodWorks Tractors and it works great . My son in law is an arborist and this works really good to clean small branches when we take down a tree. 😊

[@yazzzzer]

Looks like a great clean up tool for breaking down the garden at the end of the year… would work in either our bx25 or our lx2610… nice when you find something that could be used on either for different jobs… thanks for showing this little beauty off!

[@tomahawkjo8574]

Really am loving these videos and could use this dethatcher! Great useful video.

[@nicholasknuth4026]

This video caught my eye. I am putting in a new lawn on 2 acres of former alfalfa field. I have a box blade, but this looks like a better option to clean up the "clumps". Plus future lawn maintenance. Great! Thank you.

[@mike8hunter]

I just bought my first tractor it’s an old b8200, I love the versatility of the tractor and it’s getting better the more I learn

[@donaldkollar8138]

I have been thinking about getting one of these for several uses. Not only my gravel drive and detaching, but several cleanup jobs as well. I have a lot of dead ash trees in my yard and when you cut them down, they hit the ground and shatter as if they were made of glass. The large limbs are easy to clean up, it is the twigs that are everywhere. I also have two apple trees and the ability to clean while in reverse is an asset on my 1025R so I am not running over them and creating ground cider.

[@dwhallon21]

I have been considering a dethatcher. I never thought about all the different uses for one until I watched this video. Now I have to get one. Thanks

[@jefflewellen2880]

This attachment would be a great home welcoming gift for the wife and I , we just purchased 4 acres and built a home on an old corn field that was recently used for hay so needless to say our “yard” needs much work. Both of us come from the city and first time either of us owned land we recently purchased a John Deere 3032 for our little paradise and I am sure this would be very useful around our home . Thank you for your videos I am learning how to use our tractor it is the first tractor I have ever sat on.

[@philmccole4309]

I learn something from every one of your videos! I have too much lawn, but one of these dethatchers will make it much easier to keep looking good.

[@edmunger5595]

Good works tractor is my #1 go to for informative tractor and attachment video's, keep up the great work.

[@briankennedy693]

I have needed and wanted one of these for a while. I have a 1025r 3 acres that was not cared for by the previous owners. It also has countless massive oak and beech trees that seem to never stop dropping leaves

[@darrylpereira4360]

I have an upcoming full lawn restore coming up and this tool would make the final grading and ultimate upkeep so much easier.

[@tzundell1]

Grabbing the leaves and pine needles in the fall, what a time saver!

[@philvessa1069]

Courtney looks like another great deal. Something that is inexpensive and adds to the use of the 1025r! It will deff save time with the leaf blower and my back!

[@upstategearheads]

My lawn used to be a horse pasture, so this would do a great job of picking up all the tramped down thatch under the grass!

[@jollyg83]

I have a ton of projects that would be great for. Dethatching of course, but also seed bed prep and leaf raking/small tree branch collection too.

[@dennisf.7179]

Thats pretty cool. I live in the country and that would make taking care of the yard when there is heavy grass a breeze.

[@howardgould4686]

This looks like a better solution than the landscape rake for cleaning up twigs after feeling a tree. Keep up the Good Works.

[@wadetowles5902]

This looks like a GREAT tool for the projects you described here! Thanks for the information! I'd use it for clearing my trails, leveling my yard after tilling it to prep for seeding, cleaning up leaves - all kinds of stuff!

[@philsmock4943]

I have not thought I needed a dethatcher but who knows. Maybe... You showed a lot of different reasons I need one.

[@jessesmith6497]

We do a lot of blackberry trimming on the property and this would be perfect for gently raking the cut vines off the grass! It would save me a lot of hand work and getting poked by thorns.

[@tomlenz9116]

I live in Minnesota and was glad to purchase the CMP Dethatcher. It is everything as advertised!

[@brandtjustsayin]

I've got 10 acres and a number of projects this would work perfectly for with my 1025r. I have visions of food plot post-tilling seeding prep, shredder debris cleanup, trail maintenance...yep; another attachment to add to the ever expanding "list" of must-haves.

[@jgavesii]

That de-thatcher is is exactly what I want and need. I have a 6 ft land pride landscape rake that I’ve had for a few years. But it does tend to tear up the yard. It has its pluses and minuses. The de- thatcher is my next implement.

[@todkilian7340]

Thank you for the video Courtney. I definitely could use something like this on my property with over 40 mature Oak and Hickory trees. Especially after storms like you mentioned for sticks and limbs.

[@mattl691]

Always nice to have multiple uses for your attachments. Sure beats using your back.

[@gunnyrogers5854]

Just picked up a 1025R. Very excited, and not a little nervous, to put it to work and return on investment. This looks like a wonderful addition without breaking the bank.

[@richardizui703]

Last year I mulched the leaves I gathered and let them lay in a 40’ by 40’ area thinking that I’d be composting all of the mulched leaves. I never composted so the mulched leaves are still laying there taking up room. Now I decided to use that area to dry milled lumber from my new sawmill. I plan on raking up the mulched leaves by hand. This dethatcher would be great to gather all the mulch. It would be good for gathering the sawdust from the mill too.

[@westtoast74]

Probably one of the most valuable tools for your compact tractor. Multiple uses and easy on the wallet.

[@sethandsharlenamckenzie7275]

I just bought 6.5 acres of farmland in January and it sounds like this attachment would be really useful as I not only prep for seeding next year, but also to maintain it for years to come.

[@Goldstar683]

dang, thats a brilliant idea. you can mow, dethatch and clean up random debris all at the same time! i live next to a highway and it is a pain, you get trash blow into the yard so you have to spend time prepping the yard, picking up all the trash and then the oaks...just cant keep their limbs to themselves!~ I wonder how well this would do with smaller sticks and things, but i could see it being useful on the gravel drive, in the fall/spring for overseeding and dethatching.

[@mikescanlon3946]

This is a great tool! I have one that I made myself out of John Deere tooth tines that works great for several things you mentioned beyond just de-thatching. Great for raking up sticks in the fall from tree branches too. I re-graded my backyard for some drainage needs and used it to level out topsoil that I put down on top. Worked great! Smoothed things out well. I've put it on my Heavy Hitch weight bracket for some more down pressure to get a bit deeper into the loose soil. Great multi-purpose tool. Thanks Courtney!

[@richardwynkoop8059]

I would be curious if adding a built in "weight bracket" would be a usful addition to this. Though it is intended for light duty work, I could see it flexing into more of a landscape rake roll if it could generate more down pressure. As a bracket though, you could add or remove weight as the job requires....

[@rickmoulton4005]

Been using dethatchers for years on ball diamond renovations and regular maintenance for the diamonds. Excellent tool , good video.

[@dolmarjoe9787]

We have several oak trees and lots of leaves and small stick every fall. This dethatcher would couple nicely with our BX2360 so my wife doesn't spend half of the fall raking leaves and picking up little sticks. Looking forward to seeing more awesome videos on your newly acquired property.

[@jamescole1786]

Yes! That 60" wide spring de-thacher looks great for us in Madisonville Louisiana! My good friend (owns Kubota L2900) & must cut & maintain ~13 acre area of mixed lawn, pasture area & mantain long pathways of that perimeter & many interior trails. This de-thacher would be a great tool to help him clean & maintain this property. His circle of friends also owns multiple acres of similar Pine tree/lawn/pasture/pathway clean'up issues. So your demonstrated & light weight spring de-thach implement would be of interest (& value) to my friend & his pals. So go ahead, pull my name out of your hat, I will give this item to my buddy to help him with his clean-up projects...& brag to his buddies how light weight it is, EZ to install/remove + can do a great job! Thx for yur videos & especially yur Droan pilot who captures yur (new) Orange tractor cutting that big field...while yur big Green 'JD' continues to live in the shop!🚜👨‍🔧👍👍

[@travisb05]

I think I need one of these for my lawn. Trying to get it to grow better next year. Would be great to put in new top still and spread it

[@tomgrzywa945]

I’ve used one of these for years. A lot of lawn renovation work. However it is light weight and will bend and break easily if you back into something. Mine is wired and patched but still works great

[@ClintHackney]

Wow, looks like a handy attachment to have for property maintenance, I have a 1025r, 3 ponds and a lot of trees.

[@rawwetzel]

I use a one to keep the edge of my gravel drive clean. To stop the grass from creeping out. It's just an old crappie one I tow behind a 4 wheeler

[@npalen]

The CMP Dethatcher is an excellent tool for incorporating grass seed after broadcasting! It covers the seed lightly with soil and then can be left as is or rolled if desired. I have great germination rate using this method.

[@tonywadzinski9453]

Great ideas for using it for more than just dethatching your lawn. Would be a useful tool for sure!

[@Kahnke2554]

Nice job Courtney. Often a simple tool is the best tool.

[@nyztyz]

I was just looking for this!!! Outstanding that you show an actual 60” instead of the cheap 40” that everyone tries to sell!

[@Itsa_Mea]

I have a similar unit for the front of my X300. You can't believe the amount of dead grass and clippings it pulls up, same time prepping for over seeding. Having a larger unit for my 3 pt. tractor would be great for larger jobs.

[@michaelwright8368]

I like all that stuff you can do with it. It would be handy to use

[@edbecker696]

This is somethin I have been thinking about for most of the summer. I am new to sub compact tractors (only had mine 1 yr), but I keep learning new tings I can do with it!

[@randyb9310]

I've been researching these for gathering hay or long cut grass. The balers for the 1025R-sized tractors are out of our price range, but using this to gather long-cut grass would be huge for our farm.

[@kennetharifian2489]

This is a good product. I purchased one recently to help a lawn renovation. It did an excellent job detaching the existing lawn. It is expensive but a lot of things have done up with this pandemic. Now for the sad part. I used it twice. On the second use, I turned around and the main tine bars were bent. I obviously hit something and never new it. Me bad. So I ordered replacement bars at $50 each plus, here is the shocker, the shipping was $78 so my mistake ended up costing $178 !

[@kennetharifian2489]

So my point is, with the 60” width watch out how close you get to things. Still a great product. Even helped spread mulch around.

[@richardmills1354]

Looks like a very versatile and useful attachment. I didn't know I needed one until I watched your video, lol.

[@wendallbrown2496]

Never thought about a dethatcher doing all those things. I use my landscape rake a lot but a lot of times it’s too aggressive. Need to get me one of those dethatchers. Looks so much easier to control. Love your channel.

[@user-mw4ef7eb9b]

As a new property owner of 5 acres, this attachment would make clean up a lot easier. Thanks for another great video...keep them coming!

[@Rsiikarla]

I have never thought of that type of tool to use behind my tractor, but it sure looks like it will beat a rake any day.. I can see a use up at my cabin with 1/2 mile driveway in the woods. I would be able to use that first to remove the leaves and then it would be much easier to use the land plane. Thanks for the video!!

[@rodneylaw8576]

Wish I had found this sooner, looks more useful than a landscape rake and much easier to handle. We live in heavy wooded area lots of trails and leaves that require too much time to keep after. Thanks for the demo!

[@55dennie]

I use mine to break up cow pies in the pasture! Works great and spreads the manure out over a larger area.

[@128file]

Very cool unit it seems to have a lot of uses around the homestead. Thanks for showing us the operation

[@tombarnes1871]

I have a lot of grass dethatching to accomplish at the end of each summer and leaves into the fall. This would be perfect for my application!!

[@harpo251]

I've been using the 60 rake to prep yard for all new seeding this fall. Guessing works perfect for removing straw. This will be a perfect tool when grass is established as our yard is surrounded on 3 sides by woods. Love your videos keep up the good work.

[@blainedebeaubien9890]

Been using a homemade 10' 3 pt. dethatcher for years behind my 1025. Never tried to go backwards other than to get stuff to release. Thank you for the videos. They are a wonderful source of information!

[@edvanhoose7215]

I can see this would come in handy I have a lot of pine and oak trees hard to clean up thanks for showing me this

[@roselwcampbell]

Looks like it would make quick cleanup of leaves in the fall. I didn't notice this attachment before. Great product highlight videos.

[@DavidM-yv9js]

Courtney this would greatly compliment my lawn aerator. Thanks for offering it to us! Enjoy watching your new property get prepped.

[@stanfromalabama443]

Boy I could use one of these for seed prep soon. As well as general cleanup. Like your channel. Very informative.

[@lancep.9587]

That would definitely be helpful after a storm for yard clean up and trail maintenance.

[@carmineciampi5921]

Great video Courtney... use to have one in my lawn tractor but sold that. Definitely a good piece of equipment to add for my LX2610. Every scenario other that pine here in CT on my property would save my back and get me more hours in the seat.. and who doesn't like that! Be well buddy

[@RonWhitaker-vw5pu]

I enjoy all of your videos. This tool may work for my lot.

[@danielmoore6507]

I have thought about a landscaping rake first but saw the original video of this and thought this would be better. Wanted to build my own, just like ballist weight, but like everything else, gotta plan out what I need, so on so forth.

[@will0629]

I bought The CMP Dethatcher over a year ago from Courtney and planned to use it for leave cleanup (I have 30+ trees on 3 acres), unfortunately it didn't work out at all. Using it to dethatch is something I need to do for my yard because the grass isn't that great (did I say how many trees I have?). Probably works well, but if you are looking to use it for leaves, I'd recommend you pass on it. CMP makes a good product here in the USA, but be sure that it fits your needs. I did also buy Courtney's GWT Vera Bracket with Weights and it is great. I'd highly recommend it if you are in the market. Works great on my 1025r.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Sorry to hear that. I've used the rake for leaves many, many times and I know that other customers have as well. Watch this video starting at 2:53. You can see the huge piles of leaves I'm cleaning up. The video shows that it works incredibly well. Not sure why it wasn't working for you, but that doesn't seem to be the norm. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIDTh5hslq-jmck

[@brianseip1542]

I plan to set hatch and oversees this fall for the first time in my yard. I’m excited to see a thicker yard.

[@bronsonsmith1772]

I just bought my first piece of property and have loved watching your videos to help me figure out what tractor and accessories I need! This would be perfect for all my needs!

[@basharzaim]

I love using dethatcher. I don’t care about leaves and debris. I like how it scratch the top surface of the soil to make a perfect bed for seeding. Mine is broken, I hope I can win this one. Thanks for the good video and the give away
