Clearing brush - Stihl brush cutting saws - 11/17/10
Has anybody got any experience with one of these saws? I've got about 5 acres of really overgrown pastures that I want to clear and turn into food plots. It's mostly filled in with 6-10ft dogwood and mountain ash that's under 2" in diameter.
I've cleared about an acre so far with clippers and it's a royal pain in the back. I'm wondering if this type of unit is worth the investment or should I just hire a hydro-ax? right now I'm taking the cuttings and piling them for bunny cover in the hedge rows. A hydro-ax, while much quicker, would eliminate the brush piles.
