Dick – Just wanted to send you a quick note letting you know I’m officially a proud owner of an X4 Industrial Brush Cutter Open Front, and SP500 Forestry Mulcher. I have also made my brush & tree mastication and fire mitigation business official. Like we talked, both of the Skid Pro products will be the obvious back bone of my operation. I’ve got a bunch of before and after photos, along w/ videos if any of your prospective customers would want to check them out. And if there is anyone in northern California or southern Oregon needing a product demo, I would be happy to facilitate that as well. Thanks for providing incredibly innovative products of the highest quality, built for day-in and day-out commercial use. I look forward to many years of using Skid Pro products to help me grow my business.

Hi Eric, Things are going great with my 48” mulcher on my standard flow Bobcat T190 (16 gpm). It took a little seat-time to figure out the quickest method, but I have it down now. I can line up piles and work through them or take down bushes and small trees in short order. The biggest I've gone through so far is 5-6 inches. The oak and pine chop up quickly, but the manzanita that's very hard takes a few passes. It is however much faster than what I was doing before by cutting the Manzanita down then running it through a chipper. I’m far more productive and have reduced my hand labor to almost zero. Thanks again for a great product and service!

Hi Mike – The backhoe and HF forestry mulcher are awesome! They are doing exactly what we needed them for. Customer service at your company has been top notch. It is very reassuring buying equipment from a company that has customer service like yours and products that back it up. Thank you for your help!
A skid steer forestry mulcher is a machine that can clear land of trees, brush, and other vegetation. It has a rotating drum with sharp teeth that shred the material into small pieces. These mulchers are useful for land clearing, fire prevention, and habitat restoration.
If you're looking for a skid steer that can handle forestry mulching, you'll want to consider a few factors. First, you'll need a powerful engine that can deliver enough torque and speed to the mulcher attachment. Second, you'll need a durable frame and hydraulic system that can withstand the stress and debris of mulching. Third, you'll need a comfortable and safe cab that offers good visibility and protection. Based on these criteria, some of the best skid steers for forestry mulching are the Bobcat T770, the Caterpillar 299D3 XE Land Management, and the John Deere 333G.
Forestry mulching is a demanding task that requires a lot of power and durability. A small or medium skid steer might not be able to handle the thick vegetation and rough terrain. You should look for a large or heavy-duty skid steer that can deliver at least 45 horsepower and has a hydraulic system that can pump out at least 18 GPM.
