You see him mark and buck curved logs to maximize usable lumber, then maneuver each log out without dragging it through dirt, a practical constraint most skidding videos skip. Best for subcompact tractor owners curious about grapple work in tight conditions.
An owner-operator hobby homesteader sharing unscripted hands-on work from their own 38-acre property in Eastern Kentucky, with no apparent dealership or brand affiliation beyond mentioning equipment by name.
Yes, the owner maneuvered all the logs out of the tight trail using the Artizan rock bucket and grapple without dragging any of them through the dirt.
Start the first measurement where the bow turns straight and goes straight up the tree, then cut a shorter log from the curved section for short boards.
It struggled at times. The biggest log pulled out was one the Kubota would just barely pick up, though smaller eight to nine inch pine logs were manageable.
