[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1259959, member: 6897"] Last I had clearned was about 7 years ago and ended up costing around $400 an acre. No really large timber but a lot fo 6-8 inch post oaks and large cedar. Man had a D-7 with a blade on it doing the pushing and a D-6 with a rake type blade on it doing the piling. Cleared and piled...waited about 30-45 days and set piles on fire. The burn was great as the piles had almost no dirt in them. He then ran both dozers back and forth using the big root blows on the rear. Had mexican boys come along and pick up and big chunks that were ripped out of the ground and burned them.....then ran dozer over the entire place with a huge disc on in cutting it as deep as he could. Planted coastal about 2 weeks later and it started raining while they were sprigging. Got a great stand. [/QUOTE]
