I have a one to two acre woodlot just south of my barn. In 2007 we had a big Ice storm that left us without power for 13 days and it looked like a bomb had gone off in the woods. The worst were the hedge trees, the tops broke out of all of them leaving a thorny mess. I have been working in the fall and winters since with a chain saw trying to clean it up. I got most all of the busted up tree tops cut up. what a chore. But the woods where full of buck brush and vines sticker bushes as high as my head that grew like crazy with all the extra light coming in from the many tree tops lost. The trees are way too close together to try and get a tractor with a bush hog in there so I have been up till now clearing by hand. Went to a fish fry at my cousins house and he had in the last year bought a DR walk behind brush and field mower. He offered it up to me and I used it last night for the first time. All I can say is wow. It would push over and cut up trees and vines up to 3 in dia. And briers and buck brush didn’t even make it work. As I used it I got a lot better with it. At first I was fighting with it and it was winning. When I decided to point the way I wanted it to go and just let her go and hold on it did great. They are pricey but I can tell you I am going to start saving for one. It’s so nice to see a tool do what they advertise it will do and more. The section I did last night looks like a city park. I took a video while I was doing it but forgot to hit save on my phone. Lol But I was very pleased with it.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
