Ventrac Boom Mower!! Compact Tractor Mowing Ditch! 

Thank goodness that Joe survived the fire. That is a very close call. That Ventrac looks like a fine machine.

That Ventrac is an amazing machine. Although I'd probably never get one I enjoy the videos that showcase it immensely.

Glad to hear Joe is OK. Can't wait to see all the different attachments for the Ventrac. Looks like an interesting tractor.

There are certain advantages to being affluent in the first world. Land to play on, good wine, and fun toys/equipment to play with.

Just ordered a Ventrac brochure and told them that I heard about it on TTWT! Really enjoy all of your videos. Thank you!

Hey Tim...i love the sickle mower attatchment and the fact that it;s in the front and not hard mounted to the side or in the back...it doesn't leave any big patches to have to come back to with a hedge trimmer or string trimmer...and we are grateful that Joe has made such a miraculous recovery..he truly had a guardian angel looking after him on that day..i wish the other person no ill or foul harm but karma has it's ways of biting people back..blessed be from Alabama hill country

What kind of gas cans did he have, ones without lids, oh my God that's the craziest story I've ever heard, Glad he is alright,ty for sharing

That mower works some nice!!! Joe was a lucky man. The Lord was watching over him. I pray for the guy who hit him. He needs our prayers....

The Ventrac is impressive and the video was great! Glad to hear Joe recovered from his accident.

Joe seems like a great guy. Praise God he didn't get killed or hurt any worse than he did I'm sure he had a tough recovery burns can be some of the worst and most pain full injuries to recover from. I Pray they catch the other driver someday. Tim with all the attachments they have to offer I think the ventrac is perfect for a property layout like Joe has nothing against Johnny but I think the ventrac would be a better for him. I was really impressed with the cycle mower and how well it did. I thought you were doing a great Job for the first time using it and Joe seemed to get the hang of it pretty quick as well. Great video as always and another great Job by TTWT. Have a great week. God Bless!!!

You and Joe did a great job of using the boom mower. A Ventrac may very well be in Joe’s future. Joe must have had an angel with him on the day of the fire. Great video!

The Ventrac is a great piece of machinery. Another great video. Thanks for sharing.

Glade Joe his doing ok , Tim love that Ventrac Boom Mower and you did a very good job Joe too

When we used sickle mowers like that for hay (in the old days...), the tip had a bar on the end that stuck up so you could tell where the tip was. Made it easier to tell but it may add another place for grass or cause a clearance problem going under lower stuff. Pretty cool tool though.

Another nice video, guys. Greetings to your cute daughter. She is awesome. Hope to see her again in one of your next videos.

That is a slick piece of equipment and a harrowing tale!

Ur making ventrac look amazing

Love your videos...I have hundreds of acres in Texas and big equipment that I take for granted, and consider work. You help me to consider it a priveledge! Thanks for your enthusiasm!

I wish I had seen your videos on the Ventrac about four months ago before I signed the dotted line for my 1025R. That is a very nice machine. I love that most of it' implements are out front for etter visibility. The only thing my 1025 would be better at is the backhoe. I don't think the Ventrak is very well set up for one. I love that boom mower! For my little ditch I simply run a small 3-1/2hp push mower up and down my short, but steep slope using a rope! My 1025 nor my zero turn can get down into that ditch without slipping all the way into muck. I use a lot of Roundup and mow it down twice a year. That Ventrak would make it fun to mow several times a year, though.

That's pretty neat Tim that cutter does a nice job glad your buddy doing good God Bless

I have a steiner 420. Shes old and a bit loose but very , very useful . love the leaf blower and the blade . works VERY well.

Great video and glad to here Joes story. So glad he came out ok. This winter I’m going to need my ornamental grasses cut down. Just thinking 🤔

Luv Tractor Time with J̶o̶e̶ Tim! Grinning broadly!

Also scary accident Joe had. I enjoy your videos with him. His place is very nice. Glad to see him on the mend.

Hi Tim you guys keep it up your going to need a bigger shed ! LOL you got to love the Ventrac i looked at them years ago i dont think they even had the boom mower back then i even have one of there first dvd some where but i love the duals on them and you just got to love the boom mower it did a get job ! you know when the day come to give back all these toys you are going to cry !!! LOL but great to hear joe is doing better was sorry to hear that hope they find the guy that was driving ! but keep up the great videos and have a safe and great weekend ! God Bless !! Kioti Curt :-)

wow must be nice to have all them toys to play

You have some of the amazing equipment Tim

DUDE!! That thing is awesome! Need one on our farm!!

Joe, glad you have recovered well. TTWT & Joe!

what a awesome attachment friend very lucky to have survived

Nice. Bobby said it did a better job than he expected.

That looks like some really good work for it

Tim, just forget about it! You are just having fun with a new toy. My son ended up buying 19 acres with a small house and a nice 20x40 workshop - big enough to get his big W900L Kenworth into it without the RGN trailer. He bought a used Yanmar 2 cylinder diesel tractor and a 42" brush hog. It cuts very well but there is one problem. The shift lever is in the middle of the tractor; i.e. between your legs. My son is 6'5" with big broad shoulders. To get into hi, he has to stand up and sit atop the seat. Funny to watch. He will need to get a tractor of some size since he has 7 acres on one side of the creek and 12 acres on the other side. There is a ford but the Yamar is not adequate to the task. An elderly couple owned the property but when the husband became ill and then ied, the big pasture got no attention. So we need to get someone with a foresty mulcher and clear five acres for the two horses. Some of the saplings are about 1 1/2". I think the only alternative is a wee-wacker with a saw blade on it, pick up the saplings and then use a brush hog, use a disc harrow and over seed. Any thoughts?

Awesome video. That thing really kicks some butt.

Glad Joe is ok how can such hard work be so much fun only on TTWT

That's a nice place. God speed healing to Joe.

Very impressive! Nice work

Nice job! Glad Joe is fine!

the few videos you have posted on the Ventrac... makes me want one.. going to look into getting one now!

Hey Tim, Always a dangerous thing when you give a fun toy to someone to try. You might not get it back anytime soon! The Ventrac with the boom mower is an awesome combination!! While a boom rotary or flail mower would work here, the sickle bar doesn't throw debris everywhere making a mess. And there is much less worry of getting close to the rocks.

The tractor does look kinda cool with duels all around but oooohhhhh boy would it look really awesome with tripples on. Woohoo

love your vids tim keep up the good work

The boom mower is sure a time saver and a back saver as well. I could use is for a little wile in my back yard ;-)

A truly versatile machine

Mower on a fully articulated arm? That’s pretty cool! I have a Maschio Giraffona off-set flail that’s similar but doesn’t have nearly the capability. I could mow ditches but I don’t have any. I use it to cut tree branches back out of fields. It works great for that. What you have there it super cool!

That machine can really get after it!

Amazing machine.

Put swath bar on the end of the bar it will make a clear spot for the inside of the bar to run in

A boom mounted flail mower would do a real nice job on that ditch but then you need.....yah the list grows the need for a bigger money tree. Cool you'll be at GIE....looking forward to your vids of whats new equipment wise on this scale of work you do.

That’s an awesome little machine

Hi Tim and Christy that is one cool machine Joe is a very lucky man to be alive he took to the machine like a duck to water

Another Great video! It's great to see that the prototype became reality. I'm jealous! Very intrigued to see future videos and I'll be searching to see more about Ventrac overall. It's great getting there name out there and showing what type of equipment and accessories they have to offer

Joe thinking I need one too. I am glad Joe doing better after the accident some one up above was watching out for Joe

i like the new truck, well suited to what you do

good job veedny try out nice tracton for more then one job good bless&all

good job not seen that morer good job with the ventrac

We have these boom flailmowers to put on the front or back of our tractor they really leave a nice finish aswell

Kind of boggles the mind that he was doing that with a weed eater. I did have a question at the beginning but you answered it further in which was whether a mower like this just couldnt be put on a sub compact. I guess not. Anyways...very cool machine. Thank you Ventrec for letting us Borrow Tractor Time with Tim. :)

Thx for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

I like how this attachement is is on the front of the machine. Our Ford 501 sickle mower is on the back and you can't see what it's doing plus when you come to the end of a ditch it leaves a big section that isn't cut. The ventrac with this attachement is superior.

Wish I could afford 1 of these tractors. Always liked the front mounted equipment. When I was 14 I built a 24" front mounted brush cutter for a 8 HP Wheelhouse when the deck was shot. Worked pretty good. Manual cable lift... My back could not handle it now. I still have both but the lift is broke have thought about redoing it to fit my 317 John deere with hydraulic lift just no time.

Love Venny

Great video!

That was really cool.

That is one nice mower.

That really looks fun.

That is a sweet machine. This is the type of innovation we need for the 1-Series. PTO hydro pump would solve the needs. Worst case external engine.

Great video

Love it.

Bomford turner makes the micro klippa that would fit your tractor. It's pto driven. There's dealers in the states that carry it. You can also trim bushes with that. There's a number of companies that offer 3ph boom style mowers that include the sycle bar, rotary, and flail mowers. Bush hog, tiger, alamo, in the states. Alamo is used on bigger machines. Tim, you got to check out Alamo mowers, they got a remote controlled mower with different attachments.

Cool machine

Awesome design tim. Do they make a flail head attachment? Sure seems like these bigger grasses and weeds could do with mulching. But that finger bar design would be real nice for garden hedges and finer finishing.

Good stuff enjoyed that!!

Happy to hear Joe is OK. That mower looks handier than a pocket on a shirt.

Glad Joe is ok. That Vintrac is pretty impressive so far. Do they have a brush mower on an arm, like a county road tractor? That would be what I need.

Well yah, I could use that setup here. I'd end up using the weed eater for fence lines only. Ever since Ventrac came out with that I've been wanting one for my 1026. To bad that will never happen.

What a Beautiful Property Joe has!, would love my property to look that good along my two creeks! Want to come test that mower for me Tim!

I think i will have a talk with Ventrack. There are a lot of areas on some of my jobs this would work better then my Weed wacker. Dear Lord i pray for Joe. I thank you that he is getting better every day. In Jesus name Amen.

A compact excavator and flail mower would be a better idea for keeping that down. With that combo, the grass, brush, sprouts, etc., would be shredded finer and left as mulch.

very very cool new toy!! Its great Ventrac is partnering with you. I have been doing a little research on the company and their products and I have to tell you I have been impressed with them and their products. Family owned and American made...YES!!!!!! So Tim what other kind of attachments did they give you to try out??

Glad Joe is a tough guy

The tall thick stemmed weeds are called horse weeds in my area. Johnson grass is more grass like except it grows taller and thicker with heavy bunches of seeds.

He's a lucky man

Really like the new truck

I believe that Ventrac has a boom mower attachment also. If so, it would really help on something like that also.

Oh dang! Glad he's ok, hope they catch that guy!!

Tim, Everything Attachments has an inventory of implements that are for sub-compact & compact tractors.

Nice job, and my sympathies to the gentleman who was so badly burned.

Wished I had one of them for some of the areas that I need cut .

Wow... would that ever be useful on my driveway banks. If I lived where Joe did I can tell you how many times I would crawl down in that ditch and cut that stuff by hand... Z-E-R-O! :-)

Wow that is one cool machine! Thank God Joe is OK after being lit on fire!

That thing is handier than a crescent wrench!

looks like a golf course !

Vinny is quite a performer!

That is really nice. That will be the trick to cut around a pond or lake. Can you let the tip down into the water to mow aquatic weeds? Maybe you could try it at your Dads pond where I believe Randall filled up the water tank for spraying. Y'all take care and God bless.

I think Ventrac should pay Joe a visit, I think that would be an easy sale.

I think you could probably get in there with the tuff cut with the duallys on especially with the creek being dry and little water

with some work i see this being something that could be done for sub compact with the use of a pump on the pto if someone wanted to do it but they would be giving a lot up with the steering of the ventrac vs johnny also not sure how much combine work you have but i would get you some sections and tools to have handy for that bugger

Tim word of advice.... I used a sickle mower around our 4 ponds.... it is more work hooking up and getting to the job than it is doing the work lol so to make it last a little bit I just take a couple inch bites from the top of the weeds on down to the base.... that way it makes fine pieces that break down easier.... try it next time... helps make it worth hooking all that stuff up

Hi tim in Ireland and the UK you can get a mower like that for tractors 25hp up its a pitty u can't get a flail head on that arm it be far better for heavy grass
