- Baseball Field Transformation Start To Finish
This field was in terrible shape. Neglected for a while with zero maintenance. I took my new ABI Force and in roughly 3 hours I transformed this field into a safe playing surface for the kids.
Thank you for watching this video.

The field looks fantastic Pete! Glad to see you enjoying your NEW ABI Force! Thanks so much for sharing!
Really wish you did around the bases
COD 101 i would imagine thats done by hand to fine tune. Unless of course ypu just lift the bases off the field and run the machine over it. Like he said though this was more of a demonstration
most people take a rake and go around the bases and break up the ground. I have been doing ball fields the last 3 years and rarely drag over or bases, they are raked.
Doing free practice sessions on middle school fields is the definition of doing the lords work. Not taking a wage until the wage is earned, while helping out the kids. Well done Pete.
You can see the line of where the infield should extend beyond the bases.
Rewatched! I absolutely love the fact that you do fields, your attention to detail and the pride you have in your work is second to none! Love hearing your commentary and strategy to get the project completed. It is literally instant satisfaction!
Dagum Pete non-pneumatic tires and all! That’s one sweet machine! The blessing are so abundant for you this year! God bless!
PETE! This is GREAT! Appreciate you showing @ABIAttachments the love! Great work, field looks fantastic.
Pete, I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to bring us all these videos. I really enjoy watching. I started my own painting business after 20 years of painting for another company. 3 years in and its the greatest thing I could have done. Really enjoy your videos on running a business. Hopefully you can bring us more of those in the future.
you are welcome sir
@@GCITurf I have a question. I have a couple fields that have the so called hump build up beyond 2nd base into outfield it spans from middle of 1st in outfield to middle of 2nd and 3rd . It was cause by going around in circles for years . Do I break it up and pull back into infield ? Or do I pull it into outfield and spread it out ? Thanks
Love the videos Pete, as a youth baseball coach in Northern Virginia I think i can speak for the folks down your way on this one. You getting all these ball fields back playable and safe is going to open so many opportunities for leagues and teams in the area. Great work!!
Who could down vote this video? A businessman donating his services to his community 🤦♂️
Pat Kelly Haters are gonna hate no matter what the video is about
What is it with the 'haters gonna hate comments'? If people want to downvote a video on UA-cam that is their right.
Awesome! So happy for you to be blessed to have the opportunity to work with sports fields making them #1, safe for the kids and #2, hopefully more fun for the kids. I drug an old section of a farm harrow with a 250 Kawasaki three wheeler around the ball field I maintained in the late 90's.
Very impressive Pete! It's always a best job with the right equipment. No matter the price. It will set you apart from everyone else
Looks great! Why didn't you cut pass the bases to shape the field more like a baseball diamond? Does this machine work on the grassy area?
yep...it will do that for sure. I plan to make that another video all on its own. The ABI has a dedicated tool for doing that exact thing..you will love it
doubtful...
Love that you are Pushing it....to the limit on this ball field!!!!
14:05 ish......love the footprints walking away in the fresh surface.
You are my hero, Pete! This is exactly what I would love to do in the future in my area. Keep up the great work!
please come to Ripon California and fix our Varsity baseball field at Ripon High School
I didn't realize it until you said it Pete, but I'm an equipment junkie too! Great job on that ballfield transformation, and great idea on getting some neglected fields to practice on for free. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.
Fixing those fields is a great way to give back to your community!!! Go Pete, it looks like behind the bases need some Glyphosate 41
thats coming
Pete, again great job and look forward to seeing upcoming videos on this!!
I want to do a ride along with Pete. Just watch, learn, and of course help. Way cool, Pete.
we can put a side cart on it for you...I'm driving!
@@GCITurf sounds good to me!
wow, great job pete.. perfect tool for the job!
I love these ball field videos! God bless brotha
That's gonna work great for your renovation to get your yard butter smooth . Super nice equipment Pete
Wow Pete you really knocked it outta the park scoopin' that rig . . . and oh man the work it can do that goes hand in hand with yer business is super cool . Congrats on your new baby heh heh !!
I love your shirt man. And I love how a hardworking man like you is documenting your work. I've just stated to watch you but I love your vids
You are one great man! From NC with love, keep it up, we know you will.
That's a sweet machine! Good for you Pete!
Really enjoying these ball field videos!
I SUBBED, Great content, love the vids. Keep up the great work!
Do a great job. Enjoy watching your videos. Have a bless day
Grew up playing ball there, I look forward to seeing how it looks when I get back home in September. Great Work
Pete, you've got yourself a massive money maker there. I use to do the ripping, cultivating and leveling on a much larger scale but downsizing to that small is beyond ideal. Not only can you knock out the ball fields, but you can lay the groundwork for above ground pools which are a big ticket item out here in CA.
I will say the laser leveling does has some faults, like if the job is big enough or dirt is fine enough the dust clouds will affect the laser at a distance. Last 2 years on the farm we had GPS for the leveling bucket and it mapped it out on the screen as you went. That right there was the bee's knees. You'll be able to do storage, garage, or other out building pads as well. You got yourself a winner right there man, beautiful little piece of machinery. I look forward to more video's with it. Makes me want one really bad but I'm on a budget that's below the average beggar around here so not in the foreseeable future. Thanks for sharing man.
you read my mind friend....once I get "good" on this i plan to market MANY areas that we laser grade
@@GCITurf with your resume I doubt getting "good" will take another hour. I went to their site but couldn't find a price. They say they offer a CARB model but no way to contact unless my phone just wasn't loading it. What abouts does that model run if you don't mind me asking?
@@JustinJoyinglife sure I originally bought the carb model last august....basically a Z plug frame that ABI bought from them and they outfitted it with ABI stuff....they do not make that one any more...
The new one like I have is 23 HP EFI.....MUCHO POWER!!! Night and day difference compared to the z plug carb model
hope this helps bud
@@GCITurf close. CARB meaning California Air Resources Board. They got extra restrictions and certifications to be sold here cuz this state likes money. That's why I was hoping for an estimated price and I'd likely add like 2-3k on top lol
@@JustinJoyinglife ahhhh...blaha ha ha ha I thought you meant the carb on the engine...sorry man...I can be slow at times....Yeah You boys out that way have it rough I hear....
Back in the day we used Randsome equipment, l worked on them for the city, wow that’s awesome technology on your new machine, great videos and info
I loved this! And he sounds a little lika Forrest gump 👍🏼
Keep up the good work Pete. Love the videos.
Nice video Pete! Super cool!
Awesome job! Love your work.
Couldn't take my eyes away from those airless tires. Very innovative! 😁
dude they are bad to the bone! my first set and I love them
This is awesome Pete! We've never seen an abiFORCE before. This was a ton of fun to watch. Thanks!
That's so cool Pete!!!
"I got it for free from good ole fashion" *Ad*
Perfect timing
Pete, It’s a delight to see you explore a differentiated market using a strategy most people have forgotten about, practice makes perfect, and invest to be the best...payback comes with quality service. Awesome sauce as my kids would say!
Looking pretty good for a learning curve. Now kids and older kids can play safety without the fear of stepping into a rut and injuring themselves.
So satisfying to watch
Awesome work. Keep it up.
Amazing job!
Awesome, and you still have the ventrac to use as a backup
That was Awesome!
Pete, your vision for growing your business is awesome! Do it for free, learn the machine and sell it, and your knowledge to grow your business. Great Insight!!!!
man I have ran my business like that since day one...great model that actually works!
Hey Pete, ya got ya new toy. I see GCI Turf Services are cornering the market. "Get at em Pete"!!
Wish I'd had that when I was Little League Pres and HS grounds helper. Cool beans!
I do have a Ventrac Contour Mower in good condition + that I no longer use (your "fault" for convincing me to mow higher LOL) Max height is 3.5" and will mow as low as you dare to go and does not scalp. Stripes GREAT. Let me know if you want to consider for those Bermuda fields. Otherwise I will let dealer sell it.
Pete that is a awesome machine and you said it best at the end. You have to have something to sell your service and that laser grading will do it.
Cool video, and that field is looking much better. Still needs some shaping, but I see you already know that and plan on making a video on it...
Amazing rig
That machine is pretty darn awesome!
You still owe us all a view of you hitting the ball out of the park🤣. I think it was one of your first ball field ventrac video. ⚾️
Boom!⚾️
Pretty cool machine - any why not go all the way out to the original size of the diamond?
That field was made for right handed hitters! Good job as always, Pete.
true this
Great work Pete. Get yourself an airfield account. Maybe they'll have a gravel runway you can fix up.
Me being a baseball player all I can say all you need to do is compact your infields so that they don’t have any bad hops and no one wants to play an a field where they feel like they’re sinking into the dirty or kicking dirt around
Looks good Pete! At least they can use the field without taking a ball off the chin!
Having learned from experience, I find that it helps to remove the bases and pitcher's plate when dealing with a very bad field.
Right on. Show more ball fields, before and after.
It's good to see someone doing this. I used to play baseball and I was supposedly a really good player. But, I broke my elbow and I have never thrown a ball the same way. So, I play soccer now.
I love soccer it’s the best
@@netcald991 Yeah. Why?
I think removing the extra grass around the bases would have been a nice touch, regardless it looks great for one of your first jobs with the machine.
Awesome video Pete! Gives me a few ideas of attachments I can fabricate for my Kubota.
you never emailed me about the magnolia
GCI Turf Services I reacted out to Mr Perry and Mr Castleberry. Figured they make the product so they would know best. Don’t know if they got me correspondence.
Perfect game plan. After seeing you do a different ballfield with that awesome Ventrac I was really wondering why you didn't just use it lmao.
Awesome job! Looks fantastic! Way to get the fields back to playable shape! It will get the kids out of the house and enjoying real sports! Keep up the work. God bless
Crazy transformation! You are an inspiration to me as a Christian and a business owner!
hey! God is so good friend
That's a cool machine.
It may be slightly out of your range, but Northview ball park in Sanford, NC could really use some attention, poor drainage.
Can use that machine to do leveling for in ground pools
first reaction was wow something must have happened with him in the ventrac been long before you said that I thought well this man is very successful in what he does and he knows if you're not learning new tricks you're getting left behind I love the channel I've learned quite a bit from you if you see this can you tell me if festive you will grow in Florida in a well shaded Oak covered yard I love that deep rich color look forward to more videos on the new machine I think field maintenance is strangely entertaining and fascinating
thank you sir...but Ventrac is still one of my absolute favorites
You had me at "laser grade"
Business Owners..... #getyournumbersright #lasergrade Niceeeee machine! Pete have you thought about doing a basefield infield and outfield? Lay down some stripes and smooth the infield too?
ha ha my friend...you caught me! I have plans for that video soon
@@GCITurf LOLOLOLOL!!! Great minds think alike!!!
TOP NOTCH !!!
It looks like you could have cut deeper into the outfield grass, which has encroached farther into the infield than you perhaps noticed. The infield dirt should extend past the bases.
that video is coming had to save something for later LOL
idk why im watching this or who this guy is but I like it a lot
Nice machine, Pete. Very versatile and compact for all that it does. My question is what about the outfield? The outfield needs to be level and well maintained also. Does that machine work for the outfield too or is there another machine for outfield work and leveling?
Before you start working on that infield make sure you pick the bases up and also watch out for the base anchors
That compact ABI with laser grading is spectacular...question...gonna build again...gonna not do fill for my dirt...gonna do top 2 inches of my property some good top soil...my question: what is an excellent grade for a property with an acre or 2? I have 15 degrees away from the house; how does that sound?
sounds right...but i am NO expert on laser grading stuff...yet...give me a year
U really took that long to do all that and trust me people thats easy!!!
Pete - have you ever tried using this equipment or the VEntrac ballpark groomer to do any lawn leveling after top dressing?
Yes I have
Does it work better than the g2 turf float u have? Looking for something for the Ventrac to level my lawn which is over an acre.
wow, you really started with a wrecked field to show what that machine can do - nice
That thing looks like it would do a awesome job at renovating a yard after it was smoked out. Those ripper teeth would loosen the soil nicely and you could drag it smooth and apply your seed and drag it again.
Because that’s what hero’s do
Are you anywhere near Morehead City, NC? I have a middle school ball field that needs your help.
My school uses a pallet with big nails in it lmao. They drag it behind a tractor😂😂
Where is the music from in your video? I know you use it a lot in your videos. I really enjoy it.
Matthew Scarce Pond5.com
Man that thing improved that field tremendously!! What size is the field? I see that the bases are pushed out in the grass.
its tiny 5 year plds play on it...
How does the laser system work when putting a crown in the field? You don’t really want it perfectly flat.
ha ha ....it will crown it....you set it to give a 3-5% grade which should be perfect for water to move but not rush,,,
Why did you not remove the bases to give the outside edge that nice clean look?
saved that to be able to make another video
That machine is crazy.
Love your work Pete but I have to ask... Why don't you pull the bases and home plate?! 😖
Honestly I didn’t have to hand tools to do that.
When are you renovating your yard? I want to follow closely and do exactly the same with mine.
not sure bro
What about the pitchers mound? Isn't it supposed to be elevated from the rest of the playing field?
James Ritchie not unless it’s a dedicated baseball field. Softball doesn’t have a raised pitchers mound for fast or slow pitch.
Why didn’t you use the fields lights?
did you ever start the gci turf pro program
Working on it friend. I have the website started. Just not complete
KILLER machine Pete! GOD like rewards for a God driven man! Keep them videos coming. By the way I've got your seed holding strong here in high 90's low 100's in El Paso Texas! Water Water Water!!
