So glad DR Power Equipment sent you a brush mower! That should really help with you underbrush up to an couple inches in diameter. Yup, it grows back fast! I like the name "Brutus"! It sounds wonderful! It's kind of like a very mini forest mulcher. Thanks for this video Contreras family!

So glad DR power sent you this bush more it looks like it really help In the name Brutus I love it I can see pigs included paddocks keeping them cleared maybe some goats in the future keeping it cleared And those little structures that I spotted hope you plan to rehab those sometime in the future they will make great Bunkhouses for people attending your classes 🤔🤗

That is great you received this brush mower from DR Power equipment. You really did need it and it did a fantastic job on your fence line and pathways. That stuff really does grow back fast. Having this brush cutter is going to allow you to keep it clear without if getting away from you. Thanks for sharing how it works. Y'all have a Blessed day.

I am 60 years old and live in a apartment. I love watching machinery. This tool seems fantastic for your needs. I remember watching you when you had the forestry mulched machine (forgot the actually name) and thought it was incredible. This looks great for your pigs!

@Will7981 Жыл бұрын

In my opinion, as one who’s had land like yours to keep up, you need a mini excavator with a mower attachment. That combined with a zero turn mower and a weed whacker, you can keep that place looking like the Biltmore Estate and still have time for other projects.😃👍🏻

Oh DR thank you for seeing a need and highly worthy clients Jason and Lorraine. What an amazing machine! It really clears the area brilliantly. Love the way you can easily lay trails for temporary fencing so your animal can be comfortable and make use if the green vegetation during the summer. There is nothing better than quality and reliability. DR and Sow The Land have both.

Congratulations on receiving Brutus!!!! DR is a great company to work with. May I suggest wearing eye protection. Just in case something flies at you, or when Brutus drives into a bush a branch doesn't poke an eye. Looks good! I hate clearing fence line. A farmer friend of ours down the road cut his fence line once, then sprayed his fence line with a chemical killer. His fence line is now always cleared. We don't use chemicals at our place so everything is cleared by machine or by hand here.

That thing is a beast! It really gets the job done. I think the DR company is great. When I had a farm, I bought a DR trimmer mower, which is basically a heavy duty string trimmer on wheels, and it was amazing for clearing brush and fencelines, but sometimes I wished for a brush mower like this for the heavier stuff. Thanks, DR! Jason is the right person to receive this mower. 👍

@kimkramarski-smith774 Жыл бұрын

You should inquire if they have a sulky. A stand on platform with wheels. Back in the 80's & 90's many walk behind mowers had that feature. It's a time saver. Exercise is great but you would maximize your coverage in less time.

@rockygrindstaff7312 Жыл бұрын

I've had the DR Power Pro XL 30 for about 3 or 4 years. When I bought a tractor and rotary cutter I thought I wouldn't need my DR power any more but I was wrong. Still use it a lot. One warning, never let your kids or animals in front of the machine when cutting brush. It will shoot chunks of wood out the front in like a rocket. They will travel several yards. Doesn't happen all the time but does happen.

@victorbenner539 Жыл бұрын

They make very good equipment. I'm very happy for you for your association with them. The accessorie that they still need to make for that power unit is a flail mower. Much better for tall brush and small trees. It will much/chip the entire tree and will feed that tall brush your mower unit kept going under. So while you have thier ear mention to them about this. Homesteaders would go absolutely bonkers with a personal machine like that. FYI, the forestry machine used a flail power head. Big difference. Great video, have a great day.

I just bought the same model this morning. I've been wanting one for a while now and I finally pulled the trigger. I am beyond impressed at this machine and how it handles all the brush and saplings on my property. I've already run a tank of fuel through it and cleared more land in a couple of hours that would've taken me 3 days with my brush saw. I like it.
