An excellent and comprehensive course by Professor Jon Byrnes on the use and disuse of different Fecon cutter heads. I loved the explanation of the difference and why he doesn’t use the method known as “pawing,” attacking the tree from the top down. The only reason I’m familiar with that term is that I picked it up a from a previous video by Professor Jon. Having seen other mulching videos featuring that type of attack, I always thought if I had a machine I would never do it that way, because (a) it seemed like showing off, and (b) because Jon doesn’t do it, and if he doesn’t do it, that’s good enough for me. Now that he explained why not to do that my understanding is clearer. Jon would be in his element teaching students at a construction operators school. I see his success with Willie, Josh and Mike. I noticed that their style of operation is the same as his, indicating the same teacher. Heck, if I was an engineering student at nearby Clemson I’d offer to serve under Jon as an unpaid intern for a summer or two. Not only would I receive a quality education on running the machinery, but I would be educated on the local environment, it’s trees, soil and topography. Just watching these videos I’m getting an education.

Quality video once again! Keep up the work

Excellent training for other operators to follow your fine example of safety first & efficient use of the equipment. Thanks.

Appreciated explanation. Love watching y’all work

Thanks, John! Was just talking with my sales guy today about maybe upgrading my mulcher head later this year and wanted to get more info on Fecon’s options. Perfect timing! I saw your first vid or two when you first got those heads. Very helpful to see them in action. 👍

I've watched about 20 or so of you're Vids John and Family....You inspire me. All the best from Downunder.,

Just awesome guy’s. Stay healthy and safe from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

Thanks Jon, great video. A side by side comparison on the two Fecons. I didn't realize the how wide the Black Hawk was. Now I see why you use the Bull Hog in tight situations. Enjoying your videos, keep them coming.

Great job as always from the A Team... Always best to hear about a product from someone that uses it for a living...

Awesome machines! Thanks for taking the time show the differences...Upstate Brush Control Crew rides again!

Great job on showing the difference, value and limitations of each machine. Look forward to your next clip!

Thank you, guys!

I like the smaller unit better. Looks like it would be easier to get around in the woods and places where it might be tight and it does a great job!

Hey My Pro Crew, John I really luv how you educate us about the machines and the job that they're required to do I enjoyed this video and it was so relaxing and everything . Keep up the good work guys, willie,Josh,Micha. Y'all have a blessed safe day. Bama Queen Victoria Byrd.#1Fan.

Thanks for the explanation. I have been looking at both trying to figure out the pros and cons of each but without being able to run both its kinda tough. Thanks again!

Awesome video John. Hope all is well with you and the family. God Bless you and the guys. Yall stay safe. Love the tutorial.

Great video, I still like the older Fecon! Great people!!!

Excellent instructional video great comparison

Great vid John! Answered a lot of my questions about the difference between each head. What’s the average hour life you get out of one side of the teeth?

Really like your channel John keep the videos coming

Great Videos sir. Helps me alot when making a determination about which unit I am going to buy next.

Great informative content, really basic and honest just what to expect from Honest John, and the boys. stay safe.

Enjoyed the show

Thanks for sharing

Thanks.

Awesome Video!!

Awesome thanks a good video y'all be safe out there bud

Great run down between the two. I’m pretty sure I seen your set up heading down Tubbs mtn rd yesterday. Badass machines fellas!

Great machines both of them, lot looked great👍

Very interesting!

Good commentary on machine comparisons (hoodie and all).

Great video John 🇺🇲

I thought the bars were used to protect you and rake. I didn't know it protected those hoses. Good to know. Also that last limb you blasted thru, great way to end the video

Good information thank you.

The test results show that both work great during a zombie apocalypse.

Great comparison!!!!!

...good one, stay safe...

Like ur videos. Always a good job

Right on!!!

Fill the inhex heads with silicon when you change the teeth it makes the next change easier. Just dig the silicon out with a screw driver.

Just awesome machines man. Pick the one you like best and I'll take the other one.

Nice work and great demonstrations. 👍🏽🤠 05/13/24

If you watch BattleBots on TV, you will know that vertical & horizontal spinning heads are dominating the event. I'd recommend wearing safety glasses!

I like the Bullhog better.

Thanks so much for the heads up on things do you ever have problems with small trees being slung behind you through the undercarriage

Stumbled upon your channel looking ways to protect the back of my Kubota 95. I really like what you have done with all the protective bars and cages I did here you say that the plate steel around the bottom of the back of your machine was 1 inch. I take it you ment it was a 1 in thick ? And did you build the cages or did you by them from the dealer. Very good videos thank.

Nice video John. I see it all the time, operators lifting up and dropping down on trees. It’s ridiculous, it’s not efficient, all it does is throw material all over the machine and make the windshield dirty. Keep it Low and slow

Just now SUBSCRIBED!! 😁👍 05/13/24

You were on pope field road when you did this video. In Easley

Quick question, when you guys transport the ASV with the Blackhawk head is it lighter and take up less space on the trailer? I am sold on the RT120F, just want to run the Blackhawk or a Cimaf head. I used to work for GyroTrac but we don't get along and these new heads seem like they can kick GT's butt!

If you ever got a chance to demo a denis cimaf 180d would you do it?

hi josh i hope you are doing well

油圧モーターの位置が変わると幅も変えれるでしょうね。

Still no hoodies in merchandise store......

Can I use a CAT HM315 MULCHER HF XPS on a Kubota 97-2?

No winch in the rear

What's your camera setup?

These would be great to mow down some zombies 👍

How many hours do you have on your older 120

So one is more for finishing

thinking sweep machine.

Dude the machine it's pretty dang fast on cutting trees

I thought the DCR was a good head until I switched to a Prinoth 450s head. It’s a night and day difference. You really need to consider a different head then Fecon. You are limiting your daily production and the quality of your mulch with Fecon.

This video is ridiculous. This guy talks more than he works. Save the long drawn out dissertation and allow the viewer to actually watch the video. I'm not interested in being a student.
