- Working at the Brick House this evening and gathering up some firewood poles with the RK 37 Compact Tractor, RK by Top Dog Granite Grapple, and The RK by King Kutter 7' Landscape Rake. The rake works great for cleaning up after clearing trees.

We do product reviews, build stuff, break stuff, hunt deer, cut firewood and enjoy life with our family, Chickens, and Three Golden Retrievers. Oh and Jinx the Cat!
If you turn the rake to 40 degrees you will close the tine spacing to your travel and it will force the large stuff into wind rows you will find easier to pick up or move later.
I have been a subscriber for a while and have learned a lot from you videos. In 2016, I acquired land near short mountain WV. I have 117 acres-13 of which are fields. Since, 2016 I have built a timber frame home and a 1600 square foot garage with an attached 800 square foot woodworking shop and a 400 square foot three sided shed. You channel has been a great help to a city boy who is building his retirement home in the country. Keep up the good work. Bill
Hello Morgans!! I am currently woking overseas in Iraq, but I am scheduled for vacation here in a couple of weeks. I have about 10 acres in the mountains of Northern California, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas. I was looking for some tractor videos on LS, Kubota, Deere, and Branson (these are what are readily available in my area) before I get home and purchase one, when I stumbled across Outdoors with the Morgans. Now I find myself checking in on you guys daily! I enjoy your channel, you are super helpful and bring a refreshing change to the youtube/media world. Thank you for that! I come from a logging family, and now I find watching you mess around with wood, brings a strange sort of nostalgia back to my busy life while I am away, so thank you for that as well! keep it up and know, what you do , has value!!
I'm 2 yrs behind in the story, but catching-up quickly. I'm 69 yrs old from Concord, CA, living a suburban life just using hand tools. A retired pharmacist, haven't had to use a tractor or machinery. But. I did get a battery-powered saw and trimmer for my little property. I enjoy your family's storylines. Found your channel after watching Arms Family Homestead and Hometown Acres, both family-centered vlogs. Keep up the good advice. God bless.
Hi my wife , son and I are from CT we have family in Bradford County Pennsylvania. They had a very large natural gas strike there a few years back love to see people that were just getting by get there just do and most are doing very well now it’s kind of funny you drive through Bradford county now you see the old farm houses all dilapidated but brand new tractors trucks for wheelers and such. I’ve been visiting my family there all my life .I absolutely love Pennsylvania and all the scenery and wildlife. I am a new subscriber looks like you have one heck of a set up there in PA very nice to see good people doing great things. Thanks for the videos
I use this for new pastures and seeding. Turn the rake around and it will smooth out soil so well and the down pressure will set the seed into the soil. Great tool.
Jerimah Noonan that is a great idea . .
Hey Mike, I’m 70, just moved up to Georgetown Ca (about 2800’) on 10 acres. I just got my first tractor. I’ve needed one since I was 3! Been having an absolute ball! You’ve got to be one of the best tubers for practical tractor applications!
Chris
Thanks Chris!
Dan from Atglen, PA. Started watching your channel last year when my wife and I bought our first piece of property. I've learned a lot about "the finer things in life" by watching. Thanks for the entertainment and education.
Bo Jessee here from sunny SC I watch most of your movies. 1st time commenting.I find them motivating.I go out and work in my yard after watching you and Melissa you are lucky to have her helping out.
Michigan here my friends focusing on the Outdoors!
Mike, just got an email advertisement from Rural King on RK Tractors advertising where to see them in action. Your UA-cam channel was at the top of the advertisement!!!! Way to go!!
@@BartStar009 I thought you wanted a Yanmar........
Hello from Las Vegas. I’ve been following your channel and admire your work ethic. I’m retired now and after watching you I get enthusiastic about doing projects at home. Take care and I love all the tools.
Beautiful!!! It's just amazing what you can get accomplished with the right tools and mindset!! 😊. Just burned up another few small piles of brush and branches. Beautiful afternoon here in Delanson NY. Have a wonderful weekend!!
Austin tx been watching the channel for about 7 months. Enjoy the heck out the tractor and tool videos!
Hi Morgan’s! I’m 20 years old (if you’re wondering whether your videos hit a younger demographic, they do!!) I’ve been watching since your original video about the boss buck feeder while my father and I were looking for a feeder for us to use at our camp, which I just realized is video 15 I believe, and I’ve been hooked since! We live in southern New Hampshire but own land and have a camp in northern New Hampshire. I never really commented but always kept up with the channel because I love the work you guys do. Keep up the great stuff!!
From upstate NY. I bought 13 acres a few years ago that was logged off with a mess left behind. I finally got an old John Deere tractor in late October but have not yet been able to get anything done at the property due to a very wet fall and winter up here. Thanks for the info on tree cutting and some ideas on implements I need to look at. Tractor came with a bucket and back blade and I just bought a flail mower that I need to get set up.
I’ve been watching for a few months. Just bought 33 acres in east Texas. You’ve given me a lot of help in what to purchase for the first tractor and attachments. The property is for deer hunting for now and will start building a weekend cabin for the kids and grandkids next year. Really like your channel!
Mike I’m from Slippery Rock PA. I recently bought 10 acres bordering moraine, and am almost done building my new log cabin home on the property. I love your vids and watch them all, always look in the parking lot at rural king for your or your wife’s vehicles hoping I’d run into you and introduce myself. Take care, thanks for the vids. They are one of my favorite parts of the day.
Nice area there, shoot me some pics of your cabin to outdoorswiththemorgans@gmail.com would love to see it
Toby from Randolph Co, NC. Only have 7 acres, but enjoy all the time I can spend working around here. You have given me a lot of helpful advice over the last year or so. Enjoy your videos
First Time Commenter here! My name is Justin, I am 18, soon to be 19, and I really enjoy the outdoors. I found you just within the past week or so from Josh, The Stoney Ridge Farmer! On a live stream, he mentioned your "How Old is This Old Oak?" video and it seemed very cool! I watched the video (amazing and educational!) and you said how your north of Pittsburgh and mentioned that the tree fell from the ice storm. My jaw dropped! I live in Robinson Township, between Pittsburgh and the Airport! My "Homestead" is actually in Volant, Pa. (southwest of Grove City, northeast of New Castle) I should say "Future Homestead" because it's my grandparent's old and overgrown farm. (about 50 acres) We are starting to revive the old place, quite the weekend job. We are not new to the game, but we are starting with our bare hands! That's why I love watching all the homestead/farm channels; The hard work (and lots of it), dedication, risk, and more is something I admire. I don't know how I didn't find you sooner, but it is nice to see someone in the Pittsburgh area with a really nice Channel and following. I look forward to many more videos!
Thanks Jay, yea you are just down the road and Volant isn't far the other way. Glad you made it here!
Mike I got one of them landscape rakes for my BX and I used it for leaves and clean up after cutting wood. The rake is good for all the bark and debris from a wood pile! Nice video! Coming along nice down there!
Just found your channel this week. Great stuff! I am in eastern Kansas but grew up on a farm in SW Kansas. Much bigger tractors out there and no trees. I am envious of all the trees on your place! I love trees! God bless.
11:06 just sums up my image of you, beautiful shot of the sun in the woods, you bring up another pole, completely focused on getting today’s jobs done,
Hi Mike. Ray here, NE MN. I have been playing with my new sawmill. Had it set up for about a day and my neighbor showed up with some pine for me to mill. 318 board feet later...he wants to build a play house for his two young children. :) So far I am loving working the mill!
Great videos. I live in Paul Smiths, NY with forty one acres. I been working on with my tractor and cleaning up the land to. I really enjoy taking care of my property.
Hello Mike I'm from Quebec Canada and I live in a region call Abitibi and here there is lots of wood and mine. I follow you often and learn a lot from you and like the way you manage how to cut and pulling out wood. Here it's my firs year cutting wood so have to be safe to do it. We have lot of Spruce, birch and Larch. I bought a Mahindra 2538 hst and use it to skid log on my lot and just found my new hobby to keep in sheap. Thum UP for you Mike
That lawn rake is just the ticket. I need to find out if anyone make one for a garden tractor. I’m from Rio Linda, Ca. and love your videos. Great content Mike and Melissa.
I have a 6' York rake that I use behind my Cub Cadet 582.
New viewer & tractor owner from NE PA. Thanks for all the helpful information. 👍👍
Thanks for thinking about us all Mike, Marlin from Tennessee, Life is Good here.
Hi Mike.
I have commented before but just wanted to let you know that I am in west center Alabama. A lot of what you do day to day is the same stuff that I deal with here. Thanks for showing us that we are not alone in our day to day lives and that working hard still matters.
Not new to your channel but.... Originally from Upstate New York, Rochester Area, moved to Florida in 1978 thanks to the company I worked for. Now living in New Smyrna Beach ( just south, 10 miles from Daytona Beach). By the way this week I planted my garden, tomatoes, green/yellow bell peppers, potatoes, bush beans, peas, and we have been eating cabbage that are just ready that was planted last fall. I miss the change of seasons but not enough to want to move back LOL
From North Dakota and just started watching you.
Hey Mike.....We have a place in Damascus Pa. and are blessed to live in a country that allows us to tend our land the way we like. Nature has a lot to offer us if we just take the time to realize it...... Keep up the good work that you do!
Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Still some ice left here in the shaded areas, and starting to stay above freezing at night. I started watching for the Kubota and chainsaw stuff, and I am in the process of building the firewood hauler you did, back a couple years ago, that fits on the back of the tractor (episodes 19 & 20). I learn from your videos, and it helps me at my hunting property, where I'm building a cabin, making trails and gathering firewood. Cheers...
good afternoon. i reside in northeast pa about 15 minutes south of scranton in the spring brook township. i have slowly been acquiring 3 point attachments for my old john deere 401b loader. the landscape rake and the land plane are on my wish list still. i just picked up a new 7 foot pto snowblower from woodmaxx up in buffalo. i weld and fabricate on the side and am currently adapting my loader over to quick attach. i also do a ton of firewood for myself and for friends and family. keep up the good videos and the good vibes.
Enjoy your channel! Eastern Kentucky
Just bought an LX2610. Love it. Got bucket, grapple and box blade. I call it a tool, my wife calls it my new toy! Great Channel! Alamo Ga.
That is awesome!
Hey Mike. From up north of you a bit in Corry, PA. I bought a decent 20 acres a few years ago. I like watching you for ideas when I actually can afford equipment. For now I cut grass, chop wood, tend trails tractorless. I have a herd come through the yard most evenings as well. Keep them coming son.
I have found that removing every other tooth on the rake will help some of the dirt get through!! It will not load up as quick!! Great Job!
I agree, right now it is working like a drag.
Currently live in Panama City Beach, FL. Buying 21 acres in Defuniak Springs, FL which is about 25 miles north of the gulf coast. Thanks for all the information you share!
Mississippi Delta, our winter is only about 8 weeks long. Mowed before guests visited for Christmas and already have a few mowing done this year.
Hi, I’m from Ontario Canada. Love your videos. Beautiful weather her. My veggies are coming up nicely. Beverley.take care. 🥰
Somerset, England. Enjoying watching your videos :)
Ray Shingleton Jr Norwalk, Ohio I watch and enjoy your videos all the time. Thank you!
Hey Mike and Melissa, Enjoy the channel from Upstate NY Saratoga Springs area, keep up the hard work!!
Great opening footage. Blue sky and the flag in the wind. Well done.
Hello. I’m in Barryville NY. Father of two beautiful girls and an art teacher that loves hunting, fishing, and firewooding. I’ve been watching since your first few vids when I was looking on info on kubota tractors. We have messaged you on Facebook and you have responded.
Hey Mike, been watching your channel for about4 months. Bought my first tractor back in Nov, it is a LS XJ2025, no RK dealers in this area. I live in Gravois Mills Missouri which is on the west side of Lake of the Ozarks. Bought 10 acres about 7 years ago when I retired, enjoy most everything about rural life. Keep the videos coming.
I've been a loyal viewer for about a year. Being a new tractor owner, I really enjoy seeing how you do things. I've even gotten my son-in-law hooked on OWTM! I'm just glad we don't have to contend with all that snow, here in south Mississippi!
Hey Mike, boy that is some great improvement on the yard, you did good. My mouth started watering when I seen some of your deer. great looking animals and very tasty too. Great work with the equipment you were using, the rake worked better when the obstacles were removed and will show when the grass starts growing. Thanks for sharing.
My name is Richard and I live in Independence Mo. Enjoy Your videos. Sunny and 65 degrees. We have had about 5 1/2 inches of rain in the last three days. Grass going wild. May 4th.Wishing I had Your energy!
Mike sorry, I just seen where you ask your scribers t list where their from. I am from Sweet Home Alabama, Jackson County North East about 5 miles from the Tennessee line in Marion County. I Love your channel !!! ... Retired Disabled Combat Veteran. 22 yrs. of Service, and Thanks for flying our Flag.
Hello I watch your videos quite often with interest as you explain in a very informative and interesting way. AS Brar Phoenix AZ
Been watching for a while now but never commented. From Central Vermont. Weather has finally started getting slightly nicer up here. Love the videos. Pretty much made up my mind on what I want for a tractor now. Plan on buying a chunk of land this summer and have been thinking about an RK37 with shuttle shift and a cab. Thanks for the great footage on these tractors.
So cool seeing the deers cross the path!!!
Great channel and great information. Dave from Houston here!
hi there from mt airy md . i enjoy your videos and all the angles . i noticed that that grapple looks like it was made to rake in reverse . take a look at the hooks on the back out. you think it was also made to pull or rake backwards .you may want to give it a try . let us know . i have never seen that before .take care
Love the channel, originally from Buffalo, presently in Rancho Mirage CA., I'm thinking of moving back east for half the year and spending my winters in the desert. Love Pennsylvania, would go hunter there when I was younger with my dad and uncles. Love your video, just happened on to it while I was sourcing for land racks for my tractor. God Bless, Be Safe.
Very informative video. Ben Lee from Gum Branch, GA.
Mike, these things that you called poles, here in Quebec we use to call that logs, LOL we still have nearly 3 feet of snow here. Have a nice day and take care friends Tyrrs.
Been a subscriber for awhile, I think back to when you only had a couple thousand. I live in the very North East corner of Ohio. Love your channel because you always have a very down to earth perspective on things and I almost always learn something new.
Your not alone here in the very northeast corner of Ohio brother! I love the channel too. Good stuff. Keep it coming Mike.
Been watching your channel for almost a year. I'm in the Florida Panhandle. I have a compact tractor (Kubota) and hope to someday get some land for it. I enjoy your videos with tractors and chainsaws.
Hi there Scotland calling. I do pretty much the same as you do but on a smaller scale. Scotland is a wee bit smaller than the USA.!!!!!
Enjoyed the video... I need to do some raking as I had a few acres cleared with a forestry mulcher and I have a ton of sticks left. They didn't get to back drag all of it...
I live in North Dakota, but I'm from Ohio.I love your channel, but between work and taking care of the homestead I always watch the videos late so I don't comment. Keep up the great content.
Thanks for the video and your time
From New Hampshire, great videos!
Born and raised in Cambria county PA. “God's country”! Now living in Florida, boy do I miss the Laurel Highlands of Western Pa. I watch your videos just to remember how very beautiful PA is. If it were not for children and grand children I would be back in PA in a heart beat.
You brought up a lot of firewood Poles!!👍👊
From the Dallas-Ft. Worth Area. Say goodbye to the new truck Mike!
Hey M&M, howdy from North Texas! Cherries have blossomed down here, dogwoods are beginning, and the pecans are just thinking about it. Pollen is wicked! But it’s great to have spring.
Great view of the sunset when you were dropping those logs.
Hello from Austin Tx. Great videos. I am working on getting my land and tractor. I hope next year.
Topeka Kansas. Just bought 13 acres last year and building a new home on it. Have a little kubota bx tractor
Enjoy your videos very much. Have a small farm in Leesburg, GA.
Will be adding a rake and grapple to my want list. Can't wait for your deer blind build.
Check out Everything Attachments "Wicked" grapples. I've had mine for a short time, and it is the best add-on for a tractor (right after a front end loader)!
Nice work, the rakes work way better than I imagined and the paired with a grapple up front its perfect!
Truly amazing how much can be accomplished with the right machines/tools. A few days and look at that front yard! I would say that anyone with a new property should most certainly also get a 40ish HP tractor and a Mini Ex!
I have only about 4 acres, but I have had it quoted out and the pricing is nuts! Some stuff, 100ft trees near the house, yeah, I'll pay someone, but fallen trees, dead standing, brush, slash, can all be done the way Mike gets it done. Plus, it gets you outside and keeps one active.
Hey Mike, love your videos. I don't know how I first saw them but I guess they were right up my alley. I'm from the Lehigh valley, but my dad was originally from Ashley, PA. We also have the "s" at the end.
I've got the rk/kk 72" landscape rake, probably the same one you have behind your RK tractor. I removed every other tooth and it made that rake work 10x better in those conditions. When all of the teeth were on it, it acted like a box blade and drug up too much dirt. Therefore where I raised my rake I had a big pile of debris and most of it was dirt.
Hi from Spain. I've been a subscriber for a long time. Your videos are great to help me improve my english. I think that viewers from other parts of the world like me would appreciate a lot if you also use metric units when you talk about dimensions, measures, volumes, etc.
Another thing is that we miss your kubota. Do you still have it?
Howdy names Chris in middle of Florida just bought a Rk37hc with backhoe front end loader and grapple got 10hrs on it so far and love it
Shout out from Henderson Kentucky. Look forward to each new video. 😊.
Beautiful ND here, love watching the work out in the woods. I don't have the acres you do but still live using my tractor when I can.
I shop at the Rural King in Butler PA. I have a Cub Cadet (Kioti) which is about the same size as your RK37 (YTM). Korean tractors are great as long as you stay away from those with computer controls.
i recently bush hogged a thicket on my property and used the rake afterward and it worked out well
Chris Birchfield from Charleston WV love watching your channel
I have been enjoying your videos for over a year. We live on ten acres in southern Maine.
Another great video Mike. It has been really nice here in PA. I cut 2 maple trees down for my elderly uncle last Sunday about 15-20' from his house. Made some nice firewood.
Mike, you had better start negotiating with RK for an extension on your contract. Too many nice implements to give any back. Melissa just found a new toy she likes to drive. Lol. Look forward to your next video.
Tim from Northern NJ over here!
Buckner Mo. Like your channel . Useful knowledge for when I can get a tractor. My son turned me on to you tube and all the tractor guys.
That yard looks so much better and I thought you might get 2 logs in the grapple but backwards uphill I guess not. Great work once again and hey just leave some wet socks under the drivers seat, you'll get your pick up back.
Mike from Kentucky. I too am a compact tractor guy
Late comment here. A Landscape (York) Rake is a wonderful tool for clearing. Gauge Wheels are a nice addition to a rake, helping hold a constant depth, or just barely skimming the surface. Mike is doing an excellent job without gauge wheels, making it look easy, but depending on your soil condition, ground levelness, and 3 point valve control you can easily "dig in" and create ruts in looser soil conditions. Great comment by Mike Watts regarding making windrows of debris. Another method is rake to a point, lift rake to leave debris behind, and continue doing this at the same point for each row, and you'll have a line of debris that can later be pushed into a pile and scooped up.
Just Getting started with you. My name is Lars and i´m from Denmark. Enjoyes your videos very much. Keep it up😊
Hello Mike and Melissa. Have been watching your Channel for several weeks now, and really enjoy how you do your videos.
You want to know where your viewers are coming from and where they live? Sure why not. The far west side of Southeast Michigan about 70 miles east of Lansing, Michigan our capital. Keep up the good work!!
Thanks for the video. I'm in central Pa on a mountain. Wanted to watch to see if tharxwould do stone removal. My conclusion was no. I'd be snagging roots. Good video.
Hampton Ontario Canada
Cheers! 🍻
Hello from Cambridge Springs PA
