I am also much safer with this mower than I was slogging through the thick brush with a chainsaw. The chainsaw is reserved for firewood production. The Diamond Forestry Mulcher gets everything else.*  > > *I have only had it for just under a week, but the overgrown landscape is changing to a more park-like setting.*  > > *My unit is mounted on a 2011 323B3 CAT skid-steer with 23 GPM hydraulic flow rate.  One of the best additions to the CAT was the over the tire (OTT) tracks that allow me to go places where I would never take my conventional tractor. This rig has allowed me to take back my tree farm from invasive buckthorn plants. As an aside, it costs me about 3 gallons of diesel per hour to run the rig while cutting. Well worth it to me.*  > > *Having the forward facing mower is so much more precise and easier to use than my three-point hitch pull behind brush hog.*   > > *Being able to lift the deck 16' (arm height plus deck length) is great for clearing overhanging branches. Much better and safer than a pole saw. I highly recommend a safety glass enclosed cab. Debris flies everywhere!!!* > > *Just a quick note to say thanks Carl and thanks to Diamond for making a product that actually works as advertised.*  > > *Now I gotta get back to munching buckthorn.* > > > > *Sincerely,*  > > *Eric Jones*   [![Learn More](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/1943797/43e7d18b-b246-482b-9a03-969686dcb481.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/1943797/43e7d18b-b246-482b-9a03-969686dcb481) **Learn more about our [Skid-Steer Forestry Mulcher](https://diamondmowers.com/products/skid-steer-attachments/skid-steer-forestry-disc-mulcher/).** ## Similar Posts [![Skid Steer vs. Excavator | Which is better for Mulching?](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/hubfs/SK%20vs%20EX%201080x1080-02.png)](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/skid-steer-vs.-excavator) [Skid Steer vs. Excavator | Which is better for Mulching?](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/skid-steer-vs.-excavator) Whether you’re tackling land clearing, forestry work, or vegetation management, your choice of carrier directl… [Read More...](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/skid-steer-vs.-excavator) [![Revenue-Generating Ideas for Summer](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/hubfs/brush-cutter-pro-1.jpg)](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/revenue-generating-ideas-for-summer) [Revenue-Generating Ideas for Summer](https://blog.diamondmowers.com/revenue-generating-ideas-for-summer) Summer doesn’t just bring the heat.
