Great video can't wait for next but Please invest in a drone for large cutting like this, you can probably get a more satisfying time-lapse from a birds eye view.
Good deal, pro-tip here, lower your FEL, front end loader to just above the mower cut height when mowing in an area thats unfamiliar, this helps to avoid hitting debris, like trees, metal posts and rocks laying below the high grass.
Me yelling *Be careful* while you were mowing the thick of it by the hidden fence posts. My goodness, this is a crazy mow. And I'm loving every bit of it!
Put some cows and sheep on it also. I had an uncle who raised sheep and he had big fields like this for them to graze on. They kept it very short like a golf course. Our cows would've loved grazing on this field, and seriously doubt we would have to worry about any of them finding a hole in the fence to escape and look for more food like ours did all the time.
Sheep or Cows for sure. Goats more like brush and brambles over grass. A few sheep would have that area looking like a park. If you want to clear backberries, brush, etc. Goats are the ticket for that.
I was only 8 years old, when I slashed my first paddock with a tractor and slasher.. My dad did the first round the fence line, and jumped off, I couldn't reach the pedals, just kept going and finished, till my dad came back and jumped back on. Now I'm a grandmother who can't wait to tell my grandchildren, life growing up on a dairy farm...
This is what our 5 acres looked like when we bought it. So....me and my Poulan riding mower got to work and took it down. Had to start at setting 6, then 4 and then 2. Looked really nice afterwards.
I really like the POV shots. When you first went down through the middle and that tall grass was all around, it reminded me of Humphrey Bogart pulling the African Queen through the tall grass. At least you didn't have to worry about the leeches!!! Great video!!!
Ahh, This brings brings back so many memories of my dad. He kept the farm tidy with the tractor and the brush hog as well. He has been gone 4 yeas now but we still use it today. I bet you had fun for your first time !!! Another great vlog.
I owned a tractor business for over 25 years before retiring about two years ago. I found that if you can lift the bucket above fence lines you are less apt to hit the bucket on fence poles etc and can also get a little closer mowing. The video brings back ALIT of memories. Good job!
Yet another's advice was to use it down low to hit or protect the rest of the tractor and brush hog from these surprises. So which is it? I say leave off the dead weight on the trailer for sure if not going to use it for the other guys advice (stated above). What about not lifting the rear deck but drug it and bent it on the ground unloading the trailer?
@@kirdot2011 ventracs suck. They push more stuff over pressing it flat than they cut. Then after a day or two the stuff it pushed over stands back up and it looks just like it did before cutting.
It is a job for a swather, then bailer. After that you can go over it with a mower to make it look nicer. Sure, it takes longer, but then you have hay you can sell.
Ran something just like this for 2 summers for a large scale home developer. I was doing this kinda stuff all day everyday to keep from getting city violations. Worst part of the whole thing was that there was always so many places to cut that I'd have to run the tractor a pretty decent speed and bring up the bush hog height to keep moving. Plus, you never quite knew what might be in the lots as they often got used by people to dump crap. Hit a half buried boulder once that I couldn't see. Broke off a large 2 foot section of blade which we never found and took a nice chunk out of the boulder.
For a novice bush hog operator you did a really good job. The efficiency of a tractor and bush hog is in long straight lines. The tail swing of the mower makes turning tricky, especially when up against a fence or building. Also, let the tail wheel carry the weight of the mower. The front skids will plow the ground dragging piles of grass and it also makes it hard to turn. As the video went on you caught on to some of these issues. Looks good.
William, Great advice without sounding critical. Thank you sir. I have never used a brush hog, but you have given me some tips in case I ever do, thank you for sharing your experience with those of us that may not know how to run a brush hog.
I was just thinking the same thing, there's probably a good reason farmers cut round the edges first then proceed in straight lines across the fields instead of weaving in and out all over the place. For a really good show about a beginner learning to farm you should check out the TV series Clarksons Farm. ua-cam.com/video/RXfvZPWYaSs/v-deo.html
Wow! 5 minutes into the video and I'm already in love with that tractor set up! Salivating over how beautifully it cuts that field grass. Wow. Impressive. And yes, you do look like a farmer, but that's good, cuz farmers are cool.
You did a fabulous job on this overgrown huge lot. The owners should think about renting it out to a farmer to obtain their revenue if they aren’t going to build or add livestock. I love you attitude; you’re always cheerful and have a positive outlook!
That was fun, Brian! I especially liked when you had the camera with you; felt like I was helping. Some times I was afraid you weren't going to come around the corner, that you had fallen into some deep abyss, lol. You did pretty good for never having driven this before; you drove it like your Hustler!
I would be afraid of barbed wire, small ponds or low spots cutting that. But, trying to walk it with a stick …… you might get snake bit too! I’m 55 and getting close to retirement and was thinking of getting me a good used mid-sized tractor and a couple of different width mowers and cutting grass when I retire. Even if I didn’t make a lot of money at it…..just something to keep me busy.
You were right in choosing the brush hog over the zero turns. If one of them broke while mowing they wouldn't have found you for days. lol Nice job, thank you, enjoyed.
A sea of green... How insane is the length of that grass! I can only imagine that there is a certain rhythm/meditative state you get into while riding along through that field. Thanks for sharing!
You are doing an awesome job of mowing this farm owner's three acres and it is looking really good,I am eager to see the results of the finished results on the mowed acreage and the owner's property after you mow up by the owner's house and their yard area.Thank you for doing that for the owner's of this farm
Wow and super wow. Kudos to you for tackling such an immense lawn. Takes some patience and courage to get a tractor & brush hog, which handles so differently from a zero turn mower. But farmers typically use these on very large and bushy fields. It won't have the same quality of cut, but the power take-off efficiently transfers the 25+ hp from the engine vs drive belts to chop down the grass. Kubota is a good machine and these diesels are generally more economical than gasoline engines. Very well done and certainly a feather in your cap.
That was my first job on the farm. I noticed you shred like you mow. Next time, cut that middle swath, then turn at the end and go about halfway to the fence and do the swath back. Then follow that race track pattern until you're done. That way you don't waste fuel cutting nothing at the turns. Dad would've lit me up the second go round for burning fuel to no purpose. Makes the job go quicker and keeps dad happy.
Reverse is your friend in this sort of field, let’s you complete the final pass and not waste cutting width. Also, back and forth lines with a slight over pass works well when using a brush hog. Goes against the grain on the last pass that the inside wheel laid grass down on. If you do circles with a brush hog, you’ll notice a week or so later that the passes where the wheels were didn’t get chopped.
A real farmer would have sprayed all that johnson grass not just mow it so it can take over. Tens of millions of dollars are spent every year by farmers to try to eradicate that invasive stuff. We farm a few thousand acres in Indiana and thank God we are able to control it. These guys are idiots.
Smart move with the brush hog!! Dont even want to think of the wear and tear on the Hustler Mowers, much less of the damage to your equipment. I'm glad that we don't have alot of Johnson grass down here. Be safe and see you on the next video!!!
Catching up on videos before I joined. Great job filming! I usually cannot watch when a camera is attached to a person or equipment. By keeping the angle out of the grass and up more to the horizon, this was easy to watch. Great job on the property. Yes you did look like a farmer.
So satisfying to watch you mow that place! If I was about thirty years younger would love to try that!! Ha! Stay safe and keep on mowing ! I’ll be watching!!
Like your call that you didn't have the right equipment for the job. The brush hog and tractor did well. Enjoyed the tipping trailer design. Those hidden fence line posts weren't funny.
Now they should let the farmers come in there with their machines and rake up all this grass and put it in the bales or just put it on the back of a truck for their animals that would serve a good purpose and help out the farmers
Your work is just AWESOME! You are awesome. Not only that you provide wholesome entertainment, but you also promote, by concrete example, healthful living in a clean and refreshing environment. Blessings to you! May your tribe increase!
I understand using the shredder, but I've mowed that with a zero turn. 3 passes with the deck all the way up and 3 with it down. First 3 passes are near idle speed. 2 acres took an entire day. We've used Bad Boys and are now using Kubota diesels.
I enjoyed this video that was a whole lot of Grass 3 acres I couldn't stop watching I think I'm going to go to sleep on this one 👍👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹🌹🌻🌻🌻🎉🎉🎉🎉🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇
Wow, there were times during this video when you were completely hidden by the tall grass. I take my hat off to you for tackling THIS! Great result. 👍👍👍👍👌
That field could have been rented temporarily to a local farmer for his cattle and the owner paid for it. Or they could have cut, dried and baled it for hay feed (or in a pit for winter silage.)
Way too tall and thick to bale as hay. It would take a week and a half or more after cutting to dry. Proper hay length needs only 2 to 3 days. And if it gets rained on after cutting then it's ruined and can't be used, which becomes substantially more likely with the increased dry time. That stuff is also too tall and thick to actually bale. It's too much material, the bales would come out so heavy and dense that they'd trap heat inside them, risking combustion.
I was thinking along those lines too. I guess that comes from growing up in a farming community. In the village where I grew up the main occupation was farm worker.
Nothing better to use than a brush hog or a sickle mower. That Johnson grass would have beat him up on that Hustler! And he'd have been there all frickin day! 😎
@@rettnugent6091 if u have the right editor and a strong enough conputer u can email urself the vid and crop it to acceptable length and should be simple enough
Johnson grass is difficult to mow with anything, us a 12-foot bush hog and the tractor has to have power. Johnson grass used to be difficult to kill; now there are chemicals. The grass grows by seeds and rhizoids. Wind, birds, and animals easily spread the seeds, if you break a rhizoid, another chute will grow. It spreads in the field and surrounding areas and keeps growing. The grass if classified as an obnoxious and invasive grass. Equipment needs to be thoroughly washed down so the seed will not be carried to other areas. I have fought Johnson grass over a 100-acre field. I know what is like when you were mowing. An excellent video and the time-lapse sections are fantastic.
Awesome!!! Wow you plowed right through it without hesitation. I wonder how on earth you were able to see the posts, etc... in all that thick, tall, grass and be able to avoid running over them?! It was fascinating to watch! Good job!
I enjoyed watching the entire video, takes me back to the times when my parents owned a property that had a field of about 5 acres that I would take the tractor down there to bush hog the entire thing, which took about a good 3 days to get it all done. And I'm not going to lie, I got a little anxious watching you bush hog this lot since the grass was even taller than the tractor, and I thought you were going to hit something hard that might sheer the pin to the PTO shaft.
With grass that tall, a bush hog is the only way to go and it cut that down to size. That jungle had not been cut in a long time, but you made it look like a field again.
Gotta love that Johnson grass!!! Spent my share of hours/days/months/years of hogging and spraying that devil grass. That Johnson grass is like a cockroach, it'll survive most anything you throw at it! Great video!
It wont survive roundup or Pramitol lol. These idiots don't have a clue that by mowing it they're going to allow it to take over. Typical city dwellers that move out to the country lol
That was epic WOW you mow tall Grass down know fooling around you are the tallest Grass mowing machine reliable and getting the job done fantastic job and Extraordinary Videos love this UA-cam channel You are the king of tall Grass fantastic job and results great way you filmed this you made it feel like I was riding on a tracker I loved it thankyou so much For the great ride alongside awesome videos you do I really appreciate and look forward watching UA-cam channel and your creativity on mowing lawns tall tall Grass I only wish I could those days mowing lawns were a blessing to me but at 15 I had motorcycle accident leaving me paralyzed from the waist down it been 46 years I have been in a wheelchair but gut to say I am a blessed man I wouldn't change one thing I have been learning life is what you do with what you have to work with ..Amen and God bless y'all especially the one's that want to helping others in time of needs for a blessing to them With out expecting anything else back blessing to y'all .😎✝️☝️✌️💕👏😉 RICHARD AKA wheels !! see ya!!
There is a tool that you're missing that would have made this job much easier- a GPS-enabled drone with a camera. That would afford you a better view of what's hidden in the grass. Not to mention the ones I'm thinking of being able to hold position and will give you a nice camera view of work. Or you can also put them into what's known as "follow me" mode and it will capture your mowing for you. If you want something simple to use most commonly you can use DJI, my experience is that for the best value/quality you might want to look at one of the higher-priced Yuneec drones.
@@SandrA-hr5zk - The problem with sheep is that if you don't sit there and move them around, they'll eat the grass to below the roots, and kill all the grass. That's the reason behind shepherds, and what also led (partly) to the Sheep Wars. In relatively arid areas, the sheep will turn everything to desert that will take years to recover. Even in well watered areas, grass takes a while to come back. Remember, sheep are descended from mountainous animals, with teeth designed to get as much of a plant that grows out of the rock as possible - leaving the roots still in the rock. In dirt, they have no such restrictions. However, if you have someone to watch them, sheep can give you the most fantastic lawns.
@@tbelding goats are great for weed control they love poison ivy and will eat anything they can reach including leaves off low hanging branches reducing the threat of wild fires and they grind every seed they chew reducing the spread of weeds and invasive vegetation
So satisfying to watch how overgrown grasses trimmed nice and neat... Love watching your videos and you do it meticulously compared to others I had watched...
That looked terrifying going blindly into that really tall grass! I would have been so afraid of running over something (metal fence post, concrete, rolled up barb wire, etc.) and causing damage to the tractor &/or mower. Glad it turned out well for you! Looks much better.
Couldn’t help but watch again. This is SO much fun to ride along mowing. Question: Did you have to sharpen the blades during this project? Thanks for always having such great content!! 👏💯👏💯👏💯👏
Looks ideal for putting some livestock in instead. Surely an Ag Extension Agent could tell the owner which critters would be best given what's growing there. Or make hay.
I suggest two things: 1. On tall grasses, lower your bucket in case of debris (6” or so from ground) 2. Bush hog should sit higher in the rear rather than level.
Man!! I really enjoyed this video. All I can say is Awesome! Awesome. I always enjoyed your content and can’t wait for your next video.👍👍👍👍👍

I do that too when mowing the unfamiliar. Saves the equipment from being damaged.
Thanks for the tip ! Never thought of that lol
It was a rental so maybe he dont care lol
Another pro tip, raise your mower before you take it off the trailer. I cringed at a bent PTO shaft when you backed it off.
Great job reminds me when I was growing up.
They actually make walk behind brush hog mowers. But you made the right call going with the pull behind brush hog on this one.
That was Awesome!! Thanks for sharing.

This brought back fond childhood memories. My dad Bush hogged to make extra money as we were growing up. Great job.
Thanks Dewey appreciate sharing your memories ☺️👍
Great job. Impressive.
This field is the kind of place you let goats graze on for 3 months before you even attempt anything. Great job!
Just what I thought, I had a five acre plot and put cows in to graze they are great lawn mowers.
Johnson grass can be toxic in dry conditions. I doubt anyone would let their goats eat that crap.
Put some cows and sheep on it also. I had an uncle who raised sheep and he had big fields like this for them to graze on. They kept it very short like a golf course. Our cows would've loved grazing on this field, and seriously doubt we would have to worry about any of them finding a hole in the fence to escape and look for more food like ours did all the time.

That’s what I said that’s a good amount of hay right there
Its all gone to head though. The nutritional value would be next to nothing.
What about the value as bedding for pets?.
Too much Johnson grass to bail. It would just be a bunch of poison blocks for cattle or horses. Otherwise that would be ideal!
That’s so smart!!!

Wow, there were times during this video when you were completely hidden by the tall grass. I take my hat off to you for tackling THIS! Great result. 👍👍👍👍👌
That field could have been rented temporarily to a local farmer for his cattle and the owner paid for it. Or they could have cut, dried and baled it for hay feed (or in a pit for winter silage.)
My thoughts, exactly.
Way too tall and thick to bale as hay. It would take a week and a half or more after cutting to dry. Proper hay length needs only 2 to 3 days. And if it gets rained on after cutting then it's ruined and can't be used, which becomes substantially more likely with the increased dry time. That stuff is also too tall and thick to actually bale. It's too much material, the bales would come out so heavy and dense that they'd trap heat inside them, risking combustion.
Thank God that you found the hidden fence post beforehand. I thought that there might have been standing water under some of that super tall grass.
I was thinking along those lines too. I guess that comes from growing up in a farming community. In the village where I grew up the main occupation was farm worker.
No. That’s called Johnson grass but it’s actually an invasive weed and cows will not eat it
Whew ! Some tall grass. Need to get the contract of regular mowing to avoid this situation again. Good job Top Notch
That was a wild ride. I bet you enjoyed the tractor and bush hog. Looked like fun.
That grass was so tall, it could’ve been turned into hay for animals!! I’ve used a brush hog on an old Ford tractor and the thing was a monster
Don't lie....you just wanted to play with big boy toys🤣😎🤘 know that Hustler would destroy that!!!
I got to use a brush hog at my dad's and loved it.
Oh yeah 😎
Nothing better to use than a brush hog or a sickle mower. That Johnson grass would have beat him up on that Hustler! And he'd have been there all frickin day! 😎
I spend hours and hours on a bushog. I got a video of one job we did I don't know how to share it with y'all
@@rettnugent6091 if u have the right editor and a strong enough conputer u can email urself the vid and crop it to acceptable length and should be simple enough
there's no way that hustler mower could mow grass that high n thick anybody that would try it with a small mower like that is a fuckin dumass
Good job, caught on quick for a new guy on the tractor. Those hidden hazards on a unfamiliar field are always there.
Admire your positive attitude and your giving spirit. Simply amazing what that bush hog can do! Looks like you are having fun!
Oh my goodness. That was so exciting to watch... You really know how to handle that brush hog. Looks great.
Johnson grass is difficult to mow with anything, us a 12-foot bush hog and the tractor has to have power. Johnson grass used to be difficult to kill; now there are chemicals. The grass grows by seeds and rhizoids. Wind, birds, and animals easily spread the seeds, if you break a rhizoid, another chute will grow. It spreads in the field and surrounding areas and keeps growing. The grass if classified as an obnoxious and invasive grass. Equipment needs to be thoroughly washed down so the seed will not be carried to other areas. I have fought Johnson grass over a 100-acre field. I know what is like when you were mowing.
An excellent video and the time-lapse sections are fantastic.
Thank you Michael can’t imagine how much work that was! Appreciate 😊
“Classified as an obnoxious and invasive grass.”
😂 I feel ya, it’s obnoxious in my book too.
Great top tip about washing down your equipment afterwards. You're right about it being carried on to the next job..
A pity the owner didn't rent this place out for grazing. Lots of yummy grass for animals to eat
Awesome!!! Wow you plowed right through it without hesitation. I wonder how on earth you were able to see the posts, etc... in all that thick, tall, grass and be able to avoid running over them?! It was fascinating to watch! Good job!
I enjoyed watching the entire video, takes me back to the times when my parents owned a property that had a field of about 5 acres that I would take the tractor down there to bush hog the entire thing, which took about a good 3 days to get it all done. And I'm not going to lie, I got a little anxious watching you bush hog this lot since the grass was even taller than the tractor, and I thought you were going to hit something hard that might sheer the pin to the PTO shaft.
Brush hog mowing is neat! My lands, the grass was green and tall. Thank God We live in America!
Bless you my Friend!
With grass that tall, a bush hog is the only way to go and it cut that down to size. That jungle had not been cut in a long time, but you made it look like a field again.
Thanks Godzilla 👍😊
Or you know a mower conditioner and then either chop it or bale it...
AWESOME!! Kick some butt. You need that equipment on some residential property. You go man!!
Thanks Dave 😊👍
Gotta love that Johnson grass!!!
Spent my share of hours/days/months/years of hogging and spraying that devil grass. That Johnson grass is like a cockroach, it'll survive most anything you throw at it!
Great video!
It wont survive roundup or Pramitol lol. These idiots don't have a clue that by mowing it they're going to allow it to take over. Typical city dwellers that move out to the country lol
That was epic WOW you mow tall Grass down know fooling around you are the tallest Grass mowing machine reliable and getting the job done fantastic job and Extraordinary
Videos love this UA-cam channel
You are the king of tall Grass fantastic job and results great way you filmed this you made it feel like I was riding on a tracker I loved it thankyou so much For the great ride alongside awesome videos you do I really appreciate and look forward watching UA-cam channel and your creativity on mowing lawns tall tall Grass I only wish I could those days mowing lawns were a blessing to me but at 15 I had motorcycle accident leaving me paralyzed from the waist down it been 46 years I have been in a wheelchair but gut to say I am a blessed man I wouldn't change one thing I have been learning life is what you do with what you have to work with ..Amen and God bless y'all especially the one's that want to helping others in time of needs for a blessing to them
With out expecting anything else back blessing to y'all .😎✝️☝️✌️💕👏😉 RICHARD AKA wheels !! see ya!!
wow good tractor.
There is a tool that you're missing that would have made this job much easier- a GPS-enabled drone with a camera. That would afford you a better view of what's hidden in the grass. Not to mention the ones I'm thinking of being able to hold position and will give you a nice camera view of work. Or you can also put them into what's known as "follow me" mode and it will capture your mowing for you. If you want something simple to use most commonly you can use DJI, my experience is that for the best value/quality you might want to look at one of the higher-priced Yuneec drones.
New toys to play with. Driving a tractor sounds fun. 👍 Is that really a lawn? Seems like a pasture that needs some goats. 🤣
It was fun! More like a pasture probably 🐐
At three acres, it'd be just barely enough for two horses, or about six to eight goats. Rule of thumb for horses, one acre per horse, plus one.
Or sheep. They’re cuter than goats
@@SandrA-hr5zk - The problem with sheep is that if you don't sit there and move them around, they'll eat the grass to below the roots, and kill all the grass. That's the reason behind shepherds, and what also led (partly) to the Sheep Wars. In relatively arid areas, the sheep will turn everything to desert that will take years to recover. Even in well watered areas, grass takes a while to come back. Remember, sheep are descended from mountainous animals, with teeth designed to get as much of a plant that grows out of the rock as possible - leaving the roots still in the rock. In dirt, they have no such restrictions.
However, if you have someone to watch them, sheep can give you the most fantastic lawns.
@@tbelding goats are great for weed control they love poison ivy and will eat anything they can reach including leaves off low hanging branches reducing the threat of wild fires and they grind every seed they chew reducing the spread of weeds and invasive vegetation
The Yard Groomer adds to his arsenal of abilities and Brush Whacks acreage. And does it well. Fun video to watch.👍🏻
You sweet man, you are a hero to mankind………thank God for your giving nature
So satisfying to watch how overgrown grasses trimmed nice and neat... Love watching your videos and you do it meticulously compared to others I had watched...
That looked terrifying going blindly into that really tall grass! I would have been so afraid of running over something (metal fence post, concrete, rolled up barb wire, etc.) and causing damage to the tractor &/or mower. Glad it turned out well for you! Looks much better.
Thats why you lower the bucket to right above where the brush hog would be mowing.
Couldn’t help but watch again. This is SO much fun to ride along mowing.
Question: Did you have to sharpen the blades during this project?
Thanks for always having such great content!!
👏💯👏💯👏💯👏
You might consider getting acquainted with all the controls on the tractor, ie how to raise the three point before operating it.
Looks ideal for putting some livestock in instead. Surely an Ag Extension Agent could tell the owner which critters would be best given what's growing there.
Or make hay.
Wow! That is some seriously thick over grown grass, tractor did an excellent job of handling that insanely thick grass.
If you want to look like a farmer you will have to get yourself a pair of bib overalls! HAHA Excellent job by the way!
And a straw hat.
As a farmer i find that offensive, I wear a ball cap and regular jeans ...
You could make crop circles in that field
lol 😂
E.T ! Does That ! Already !! When ! He !! Comes ! To Earth !!
I suggest two things:
1. On tall grasses, lower your bucket in case of debris (6” or so from ground)
2. Bush hog should sit higher in the rear rather than level.
#3) Tighten your sway links. Your mower was fishtailing all over the place. Thats hard on lift arms.
I don't think I would have the courage to start this job let alone finish it. GREAT JOB!
