Clearing trees from a food plot ditch.. What's the strategy? Bobcat e42 R-2 series mini excavator

Nov 16, 2021-Should you be doing machine work on your hunting land 2 days before Illinois opening weekend of deer shotgun season 2021 in Illinois? Even if you are not a deer hunter, you can join me for some fresh air and land management action for mid November! In today's episode, (another 'mini' series, PART 1 of 2) I will take out my 2021 Bobcat e42 R-2 series mini excavator and start clearing a low ditch line of trees and brush that have consumed it over the years since the previous farmer's quit planting it and keeping it maintained. This is quite normal for farming operations, often if there is a runoff ditch that stays wet the farmers will simply work around it. So, looking back 5 years I distinctly recall the very first nice buck I saw on this property, that actually crossed behind this wooded ditch line and I was not able to get a shot at it. So today I am going to remedy that problem! Join me in the cab of my bobcat e42 mini excavator as we wipe out half of this ditch line! Oh, and of course, it would not be a YouTube project video without some kind of video or audio issues! Thanks for joining me today, stay tuned for part 2 as I take on the 'McKraken' tree that is a Medusa like tree that at some point got blown over, but the roots stayed intact and about a half dozen new tree shoots came up sideways out of the downed tree base!
