Land Clearing - Any Experience with rotary skid steer cutters? - 09/13/16 01:16 PM
Has anyone had any experience with these rotary brush cutters that are mounted on skid steers?

I recently got a place that was completely neglected by the previous tenant and there are cedar trees, black berry thickets and general brush are grown up all over that a brush hog will not be able to handle; and I got a couple of quotes from different skid steer operators for brush clearing and I honestly believe its the right tool for the job....
Only thing that has me hung up about it is that the skid steers with brush cutters are being quoted at $150-$165hr while I can get a D6 for $135hr.
Just wondering if the added maneuverability, speed of travel, less disturbance to soil and most importantly production is worth the extra $30hr over a D6?
