Thanks for coming out! Very good comparison.
One major observation - both tools are built and marketed as cultivators. NOT arena drags. There are many companies out there manufacturing drags that have put in the time and resources to study arena footing and equine physiology. Premier Equestrian, Reveal, ABI Attachments, and several others have worked with top horse trainers, riders, and facilities to design their products to make the footing safe and properly groomed for horses for a variety of disciplines. I appreciate Tim's observations and in some cases I think he recognizes the tools are limited for the application they are demonstrating. And this would be due to the fact they are NOT arena drags. To that end, they are glorified rakes or harrows that cannot control depth, aeration, maintaining a base, etc. They rip and prep soil for planting. A far different application than footing for horse riding.
Every arena groomer has its own purpose the biggest down fall to this drag is no hydraulic ripper dig tips. The spring dig tips won't rip up hard ground. The Ground Hog and Black Widow have that option. The Black Widow, when used right is the best for big barrel races keeps the ground level after multiple day events. The budget is the biggest factor in a drag.
There’s so much to explore in the world of footing for the equestrians… drags, arenas, footing. All of it. I’m always trying to improve our footing here…
I am little late for the comments, but I LOVE A PERFECTA ! I own a tiller I use with my 2038R but I have used my friend’s 15’ Perfecta on my 4440. I makes a great seedbed and garden plot. There was a vegetable farmer somewhere on UA-cam that traded his tiller for a Perfecta. One thing a Perfecta offers is VERTICAL TILLAGE vs the horizontal tillage and beating to death of the topsoil that is tiller does.
Tim, You are the man in demand. Knowledge and ability to teach others has you in demand. This is yet another example of the many jobs you take on and make a successful outcome.
This is the reason I bought the ABI TR3 Rake. For the floating blade & depth wheels to keep from the wavy finish.
The engineer in me says: bolt a chisel roller behind a rotor tiller mounted together using a hydraulic leveling cylinder - so it behaves like a pull type box blade wheel set. Fun and exciting video, Tim.
Drag show? Oh wait, its Tractor Tim, lol.
Something that might be a modification to the UM would be at the spike harrow. If it were reversable. i.e. If the spikes could be flipped 180 and have a blade on the back side. The combination of a semi-floating blade /flippable to spike tooth harrow ( and being spring tensioned) might have some advantages if that unit is preferred.
This was fascinating to watch! I didnt know so much goes into the grounds! Thanks for sharing! Great content. Im all over your channel today, loving every minute. I appreciate your vast knowledge of all things grading and tilling!
Don't have horses but loved this trip and the arena work.
The reveal 4n1 is a great tool for grooming arenas! Best I’ve ever used!
There are several of these horse arenas in the area that get media coverage by helping PTSD victims. People love their horses. Thanks for taking us along.
Love this content and channel! Thanks for sharing!
Very enjoyable video Tim. Great comparison of the two implements. I also learned a lot about what it takes to groom a horse arena. Thanks for another great video.
Great video!
That was neat. Thanks
That’s quite a different type of soil preparation for their specific needs. Interesting to see how they do that, and how the different attachments perform. It’s quite a science. Blessings.
Very fun video! My neighbor uses a Premier Equestrian Pro Groomer. It looks much shorter than these units. I have also seen another friend who uses a Bannerman Ballpark Groomer, he really loves it. It really has two layers prepared separately. Who knows.
