[QUOTE="hillbilly beef man, post: 1260013, member: 4786"] I did 4 acres of 16-30 inch poplars a few years ago. It had been a field years ago, so most of them were peeler grade. With low these low quality trees and paying two guys to help me log I made enough to pay $3,500 for the 14,000 lb 3pt winch I used to log it with. After we logged it I let people cut firewood to cut down on brush. Then the track hoe guy ended up costing $500 an acre to pile what brush was left. I then sowed grass around the stumps and sprayed it with crossbow every year. It has been a lot of work, but I beleive I could not have gotten by any cheaper. If I ever get to do the other 45 acres on that farm I would want to go ahead and buy a 16-20k trackhoe and do the brush myself. [/QUOTE]
