Then you get Tucker Carlson to create a mass hysteria about Lions taking our jobs and killing people to win the Republican vote and send the national guard
While I agree with this in principle, how else are we going to create the next Khabib Nurmagomedov? The sacrifice of having to create a little bit of Dagestan on your land seems worth it.
Whatever you do, it’s going to cost you. Time/money. I favor the goat strategy but there are trade offs as others have said. This is a great video that shows the temporary fence setup, then the before and after of an overgrown area.
I wasn't familiar with a skid steer so I googled it. It is what I am familiar with here in East Texas as a bobcat. Would have loved to have one when I was first clearing my property. Kind of like a mini dozer. Looks like they would be easy to operate. Really ideal for clearing anything up to small trees. Probably not big enough for pond expansion but handy.
Great... now you've got me on Bobcat's site drooling about crap I don't need while living in suburban hell.
Man, I’m totally inclined to rent a skid steer and tractor and play around and see if/should I buy one. min expanding the pond too but that’s a down the road project. I have the east fork San Jacinto river running through the property and the pond could be crystal clear if dig up a bit more. Who wants to come help me? Plenty of beer
When I bought my land I hired a bulldozer for 5 days. Once I got the bill and started figuring out what all I still wanted to do. I bought a bulldozer. Best big investment I made. I work on my land when i have time.
Fun fact...my brother in law and I had a bunch of old PCs that we were recycling. Rather than take the hard drives to get shredded, we blew them up with tannerite on this property.
Komatsu I don't know the number for the size off the top of my head. Its considered a small but its a larger small with a 6 way blade. Bought it used .
