LANDSCAPE RAKES ARE AMAZING TOOLS! SAVE SO MUCH TIME! 🚜👨🌾

- Today we headed over to the west side of the property where we recently ran the Baumalight MS960 Brush Mulcher. We had cleared this section of land in order to plant some rye and clover to attract deer and turkeys. We didn't want to take the time to till the land, so we just hooked up our Dirt Dog Landscape Rake, and cleared the top section. However, we're running an experiment to see if that is even necessary. Perhaps the seeder could just run immediately after the brush mulcher. If either way works, it will be a significant time saver over running a rototiller.

My son and I always look forward to your videos Saturday morning...I never knew how handy a landscape was until I had one. I'm basically using mine to clear my foodplot and scrape the ground and then just plant it since I don't have a tiller. The worksaver mini grapple pairs well with the landscape rake and the 1025r for cleaning up.
Nice job. Additionally good job explaining the differances in using the dethatcher and the landescape rake. Have a great day guys and stay safe. Tim
The root rake is a great way to scarify the ground for food plots! I do this quite often then broadcast the seed mix with a PTO fertilizer spreader and finish the seeding process by using a 36” dia x 6’ smooth drum roller to press the seed into the scarified ground for the required contact to germinate. Great video! You are super helpful to the folks that didn’t grow up farming using equipment/Implements. 👍
My property includes a power line area that I like to keep mowed for practical and aesthetic reasons. Every few years Georgia Power trims the edges to maintain clearance from the wires, and in spite of their attempts to leave it relatively clean, there is considerable debris that the landscape rake is invaluable in cleaning up. Also, as you mentioned, it does an excellent job of light grading where moving larger amounts of dirt is unnecessary. A very handy attachment indeed.
Yup, I need one of those too. Thanks Courtney
This is a great video - have done a lot of forestry mulching and wanted to see a video re how the rake did cleaning up the mulch sticks and debris / just bought the rake attachment because of this video and the detail it shared. Most of the other rake videos were about drives and roads - well done and thanks for the post!
I like how the rake cleans the trails nice job
Love my landscape rake ! - I'm doing a similar experiment on my farm - raking some of the formerly tree infested CRP land vs not raking and then planting in hay or a cover crop of cereal rye. I find on my smaller tractor the rake works better reversed and pushed vs pulled as I can accumulate larger piles due to my diminished hp, traction and ground clearance restrictions. Also in my fields with thick (mowed) grass/ground cover I'm trying a disc vs tiller (another experiment) You can move much faster with a disc and it preserves the soil aggregates better and therefore your good soil bacteria/fungi etc. Awesome videography and music !!!
Nice job clearing out the food pot! I'm really curious which area grows the best. Also really liked how it freshened up the trails. Glad to see the JD SxS make an appearance.
A rake is top on my list for the spring. I think it be great for cleaning the barn yard Great video
giant rake looks great for clearing large rocks on a dirt bike track! thank you
This was a great video this guy is so eloquent and clear in every detail
Extremely educational thank you!
I agree the Landscape rake is awesome. I use it to help clear trails on our hunting property, we have a lots and lots rocks and I angle it to windrow the rocks off to the side. I did the same thing we had a small food plot and cleaned off of the debri so I could plant. It works great for roughing up the surface for seeding, I used a broadcast spreader and went over it lightly after seeding to incorporate the seed. Also keep in mind when you angle it becomes narrower so I went with 60" for 1025R
Well excellent! Finally, an attachment I actually do have! Love it.
I’ve had good luck mowing the field for a couple years prior to seeding. Also the quick version, a broadcast spreader some rye seed, lime and fertilizer and Viola, u got grass! Most people don’t know this but you can mow and maintain almost any existing field and get turf grade grass with out seeding. I will say I love my landscape rake.
In my experience the most effective way to clear vegetation like the food plot is to turn the rake around and use it in reverse. You still get the buildup but it is less likely to jump over it and you clear the rake every time you drive forwards again. It also means you can easily continue to push the vegetation into the bush. I used this approach to great effect clearing years of leaves and sticks from around my house as the 2019 bush fires approached.
Man ,l am sure glad somebody knows this besides myself---congratulations Sir. My "cheepo" 6 ' 600$ landp--de works FaNtAsTiC. I use ALL 10 holes for forward reverse and all angles in between. It all most "hurt me" to watch the vidio. Good Works Tractor (Cassey)is an Expert in 99% of his vidios. I think he might of been "kidding" on this one!
Angling the rake works well when you a removing rocks from soil. Set it at an angle, make windrows of rocks, then either keep doing swaths till you move them all the way over or scoop with your bucket. Works great.
Great Video, Thanks and I will keep watching.
Met the dirt dog folks at the Ag Expo a couple years ago. Super nice folks. Good products!
My Frontier 72” rake worked very well to pull the stone back up out of my driveway and cleaning up my atv trails.
Yes great job and nice video, I like going counterclockwise on the angle and taking it to the center
I use my landscape rake to maintain my 800' hard-pack downhill with curves driveway. Years of snow plowing wore the surface down until it was below the edges, making it a streambed in heavy rain. I dug drainage ditches on both sides, then built the driveway back up and used the rake to put a crown on it. Lowered the right side with the link, raised the gauge wheel on that side a bit, then angled the rake back on the left side, so the rake took more surface out of the right side and the material slid along the rake toward the center of the driveway. So all those adjustments are handy.
Oh I really look forward to following this.
I have used a rake like this to sort out chunks of asphalt when I put asphalt millings over a parking area and angling the rake was priceless. It created wind rows of the chunks so I could scoop them up and dispose of them
Used my rake after hurrican Ian to pull all the flotsum away from edges of our fences, hedges and shorelines. Worked great.
It will be interesting to see which side does a better job with your food plot. Thanks for sharing.
13:53 Good idea smoothing the path so the Gator doesn't get stuck!
When it comes to attachments to me there are no rules. For gravel or sandy base I've used a rake flipped all the way around so the tangs just drag and don't tear up roots and such. I've seen it used like this on beach areas around lakes to groom the sand.
Morning GWT !! Love and look forward to ALL of your videos
Thank you Ryan, so glad to hear you enjoy! Oh, and congrats on #1 this morning!! 🙌🎉🏆🎇👏🚜👨🌾👌😎🔥💪
Good luck this year with food plots and hunting
Thanks Ryan, same to you!!
Nice video showing what a landscape rake results really look like. Not just one pass and you are done. By the way Corey is just as easy and polite to talk to on the phone as his videos show !! You need to do some business with this man.
That's very kind of you Stephen. Thanks so much, have a fantastic weekend!
This is a cool implement! I think it would work great to clear off new brushy plots or maintaining trails. Really the biggest advantage is if folks were burning their timbers and had a clean perimeter to drive their tractor on the edge. If they used this or a rake would make a clean firebreak. I'm a contractor and something like this would add a lot of value to my buisness.
I have a 6' rake with gauge wheels - the wheels are great for gravel driveways & roads to give a nice even finish, along with when you are building out new areas of yard. It helps keep the rake from digging in more heavily in softer material which just results in a more even finish.
Can you lift the wheels up easily if you don't need them?
They are a very handy piece of kit and absolute must for the homesteader, farmer or large property owner. We've had ours 40 years now. It get used alot.
My only real complaint (with any rake, even the simple hand tool) is twigs, branches, vines getting stuck in the tines. Sometimes they work their way out, sometimes they don't affect anything, but other times they interfere and require hopping off the tractor to pull out. Thanks for watching!
@@GoodWorksTractors that they do we use the hydraulic top link to shake them out but the bigger branches and chunks of roots don't always come loose and you have to get off and pull them out. Ours is a bit different setup it's a 12 foot Howard ridge headstock extra heavy duty designed for virgin land has taken an absolute beating in it's time the tynes are inch diameter spring steel at 3 inch spacings.
I’m very jealous of all these bigger boy toys you get to play with. Gotta have goals right! Working my way up brother. I think you’ll be rewarded nicely for making a large “honey hole” there. I think Grant Woods shows and tells this in his channel. My uncle hired him and they did a bunch of “honey holes” on 850+ acres (2/3 wooded) and have seen very nice results. Good luck 🍀👍🏻
Grant Woods is an absolute gold mine of whitetail knowledge. Awesome that your family had him out on the property. Thanks for watching!
I have found that my rake works great in areas where I have a large amount of leaves and small limbs. Just rake them into a large pile and pick up with grapple. Sure turns what would be a lot of time and work into just a little play time.
I also added a weight bracket from my old LX 178 to my rake and put 2 small suitcase weights on it to grade a lot that was hard clay. I angled it it did a better job at cutting the high spots and filling the holes. And the lot had lots of junk on it rocks and branches, by windrowing it I was able to use the loader to push the junk into a pile.
Might try adding/mixing in good dry dirt to the seed mix. Generally seed should be buried it's own diameter.
I wish they added gauge wheels to blades.
Angling the rake works great when your spreading gravel.
Your property beautiful
I've always been partial to York rakes for dressing up gravel etc, they give more options as to floating/guage wheel controls and the fancier ones have a drop down "short" blade a couple inches high that folds down in front of the tines to pull material along to fill depressions and still cascade over the small drag pile. Kind of a swiss army rake. They tend to be pretty expensive though (as do the knives). I'm sort of in the market, just picked up a B7800 and a rake would be nice for getting my property in shape, but I'm waiting for the right deal....
I am interested to see how the experiment plays out in the spring. Good luck for hunting season. Thanks!
Cool idea..Only thing I thought of, was to try that raking task on some of the unraked part of the field with the 1025r and an appropriate rake and grapple. Just curious to see how it would do. Thanks for sharing
Great tool for trail grooming.
I think the trail looks a lot better racken it up let that...darn nice job with it ..
Landscape rake, probably my most used implement. Angle it to drag gravel off of the edge of a driveway toward the center. The angle can also make it more aggressive if needed.
I believe this is going to be my next implant for my tractor just seems to be a lot of good uses for a rake
Definitely very nice
Excellent video skills.
Good info again, thanks for the vid
Any time!
Many years ago York implements made the same size rake 8, foot, that had a blade that could be dropped in front of the rake tines when you needed a blade and easily swung back up and securely locked itself when you only needed the rake. I worked for a municipality and worked with the tractors on the ballfields. The York rake generally was used on the Ford 2000, but it could be used on the others, an older 8N Ford or an International with a bucket and a small backhoe ( a real chore to unhook that took time and was usually only done to hook up a Rotovator box tiller.). Springtime, cutting through overgrowth of Bermuda grass on the infields and redefining the edges, having dumped loads of sandy clay being worked into low spots to stop ponding during rainy spells, cutting down the arc where infields met with the outfields to take away the "hump" that builds up during the seasons to achieve a flat consistency, the rake was essential for these tasks, and the blade was about a ten second operation to get it in play, holding the blade up slightly, releasing a pawl and dropping it down, self locking and another ten seconds to lift it up and lock it by the same spring loaded pawl. It was so well designed there was no danger to your free hand holding the blade, although it was a bit heavier on the way back up, it was still a one handed operation because of the way it was balanced by the retaining pins. I was always impressed by the simple versatility and the ease of the swing ( zero to over 45°) and the pitch adjustments, all great for 'fine work' before final hand grading. The blade, too, was icing on the cake whenever we needed it. That was 1975. I have no idea whether York Implements are still in business. I think it might have been a York, PA business.
Down here in Texas we keep the woodchips in place. They break down and give some nice hummus to the ground.
Think of how fertile a forest is, that's what you'd have had if you let it breakdown for a few years.
Great video
Those rakes are very handy, have to get one with my new Tractor in the Spring!
Very handy, make the tractor break it's back instead of you, haha!
I have a question,
My property is bare dirt, and I've been using a harrow rake to make it more level, and I would like to have some kind of field grass, instead of just bare dirt, what kind of grass would you recommend, thank you in advance, I love watching your videos, very informative 👍🏻
I bought a Land Scape rake and found that using it on the driveway in the spring to cut the Hard Packed snow,it scratches it and cuts it great,then use the Regular blade to move afterwards,
Just purchased a 3 acre lot that had corn on it last year. Farmer planted pasture Grass and has had all summer to grow. We have cut several times and looks good. But the leftover corn stalks seem to be hampering filling in patchy areas. Would a landscape rake be the way to go to clear out the leftover corn pieces?
A landscape rake can also been used for dirt work and leveling. Not the best tool for the job but can leave great results.
Good video. Is the 84” rake wide enough to cover the tracking of the width of the tractor tires when you have it angled all the way???
What size would you recommend for the Kubota BX, 25hp. Thanks
Landscape rake is my most used 3 point attachment trying to figure out how I did stuff with out one
That seeder you have needs some mud scrapers on the cultipacker. I bought a Landpride aps1572 seeder this year for food plots and it has worked very well. We tried no tilling and lightly discking before. Definitely works better with a light disking prior but acceptable to just bush hog low and seed if time doesn’t allow. Definitely like putting the seed where I want instead of slinging it every where with a traditional spreader
Can you use a cultivator over that mulched land to chew it up more and bury it? Or is that a bad idea?
which rake wood be good for cleaning up a yard after cutting down a tree? Landscape rake or the dethatcher?
The aerial shot at 8:30 looks like the state of Missouri. Just an observation.
My favorite implement. My opinion only…. I removed every other tine. It doesn’t plug up as bad and grabs the big stuff . Try it.
Enjoyed the vid as always...nice to see u still have the gator..😁😁, sorry for the ball buster...but it was an entertaining vid ...keep on keeping on...use my GWT purchased items everyday... just sayn..thank you😉😉👍😎
Is this a good tool to use before adding in grass seeds and smoothing out the dirt before adding the grass seeds?
@GoodWorksTractors Where are the follow up videos comparing raked vs unraked performance after seeding?
Curious to know - is it essential to remove all stumps - would hitting a stump bend or damage the rake?
Is this rake with a guide wheels an option for cleaning up leaves and twigs from a grass yard? Or maybe this thing is too aggressive and would cause gouging?
Gotta a lot of weeds in drive unphased by my box blade. How would this work?
Can I use a landscape rake like this instead of a dethatcher?
Curious if you have plans to remove some of those big grape vines I saw in the woods. Wondering if pulling them, cutting them, or poisoning them would work best for you. Pulling would allow use of the tractor.
Also tilting the rake has a very similar affect at a rear blade. Extend top link for a more aggressive cut or shorten top link for a less aggressive one. Short top link works well when breaking up cow patties in the pasture without ripping the grass up.
Nice
If you rake now it will work much better than when the vegetation grows back. You may be creating yourself a problem but I don't know what kind of food plot you have in mind. But it is looking good!
Isn't all the dead vegetation that you removed future fertilizer? Kind of like the Eden method with the mulch?
So where is the follow up video to see how the field turned out?
Angling the rake when resurfacing a gravel driveway gets the gravel that has rolled to the edges back into the driveway. But also lower the leading side on your three point to get the crown.
What I do is angle the right side of my rake forward and lower that side almost all the way and make a couple of passes. Then raise that side about half the way up and make enough passes until the wife is happy. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like that. Maybe I'll give that a shot some time when resurfacing my gravel drive. Thank you sir, have a great weekend!
@@GoodWorksTractors It will take a little practice to get it dialed in. But after a pass or two you'll be raking like a pro.
but you need a nice gravel driveway....in my case I have red clay and river rock. a blade is the only thing that works.
Agreed - I just got my rake a few months ago and it does a very good job building a crown with this method, even for an inexperienced user
@@MrPrediluted One extra tip; do that shortly after a rain. The gravel works easier and its not as dusty.
I've been trying to use my 72 inch rake to take care of the beach.We are on the north end of the lake. Due to prevailing winds there are a lot of weeds that wash in. If there is a small amount I run parallel to the shore line. I am still trying to decide if angling the blade washes more sand out. For large amounts I back in and pull them straight out. Gage wheels help for grading the beach. Before the wheels the rake would just dig in and stop the tractor. If I tried to run with the rake lowered to a position I dug holes.
Try removing every other tine that way its easier to unload load the rake especially with tree limbs.
Great idea - I was looking for a solution to that problem - Thanks !!
So what were the results
Are these rakes made for riding lawnmowers to pull?
Kuiu huh, they make good stuff.
I use to use my Dad's 9N with an old-fashioned dump rake to gather up hay scatterings after the baler went thru. Dad was VERY frugal about getting ALL of the hay.
I would have used a similar approach on the area you were raking. Since it was obvious that the rake was riding over a lot of the debris, rake about 50 feet, lift the rake, drop it back down after clearing the pile, do another 50 feet (or so), repeat as needed. Essentially creating windrows of debris. Then use the grapple running parallel with the row to push the debris off to the edge of the clearing. I think it would have been more productive.
That's kinda what you did around 10:00.
Love your videos!! Forgive me if already asked, but how do you like those R14 tires?? Mine have been great on an L2501, but only have 5 hrs on tractor so far.
I’ve had a L2501HST bought in June, have 25 hours on it. Already have two plugs in one of the fronts doing grapple work in the woods. Filled both fronts with an industrial grade slime product (Phantom Ag sealant) so far so good. My rears were loaded from the dealer. Get some Bora 2-1/2 spacers, huge difference.
Seemed to do very little other than gather leaves.
I have a box blade and an angle blade but my gravel driveway sees nothing but my 8 ft rake. My driveway is 1/4 mile long and when you set a vertical and a horizontal angle on that rake you can just drive off in second gear. One trip down and one trip back and your driveway looks like 1000 people spent a week with hand rakes mounding the top and sloping the sides. Maybe thats not what they are intended for but it sure works good for me.
Random video to comment on. But can you do a R14 review? It would be great to at least cleft your feedback. Even better to do head to head mud and snow tests versus AG or Industrial tires.

Top 5 !
Good Morning Mark! I read that we may have the latest frost on record this year. Wonder if that will have any affect on major leaf drop and fall cleanups?
@@GoodWorksTractors OH I bet !! Probably be doing leaf cleanups in December!! My lawns are growing right now like it's May!! Im beginning to wonder if I will be able to use the new snowpusher lol
Haha, weather keeps getting stranger every year!
@@GoodWorksTractors yes it does! Very wierd. Saw a yard the other day with dandelions in it.
🇨🇦 0:45
If you have rocks and stones, you'll want it angled because they will eventually will be coming out the sides.
What state are you in
Those rakes look useful but my OCD would rage with all the junk being caught up in the tines 🙄
I’m wondering how one of those would work to rake up leaves in the fall…
Your ground would have to be hard and dry, or it will tear it up. I've tried.
Great for trails, but not for lawns if that's what you're thinking? Use one of these dethatcher rakes instead. It will still collect leaves without damaging your turf. www.goodworkstractors.com/product/3-point-dethatcher-for-tractor/
Agreed
My big takeaway was that the rake is amazing for clearing trails, and somewhat inefficient at clearing a field. Looked like you’d have to do a million passes and never remove the top layer of junk and get down to good dirt. I’d like to see how much faster a small dozer or even a compact track loader with a dozer blade would be than a landscape rake. Flip side of the coin, landscape rakes are dirt cheap. I guess there’s the upside. “Yeah, she ain’t too good at much, but she sure was cheap.” Lol!!!
What's the song at 8:25?
This dude look like Philip Rivers...
Why didn't you just frost seed the Clover?
That way the Lime will work better more time to work on the Soil, and the carbonic Acid from rotting vegetation will not prevent Germination.
