Palmetto bushes are very plentiful in Florida, and I just got my first grapple. Thought that since it "looked like a root rake, smelled like a root rake, felt like a root rake" then it must work like a root rake. I guess either I am completely off my rocker about how to go about this, or a grapple is not to be used as a root rake. I was hoping to walk right up to the palmetto bushes, lower the grapple, ease forward and pluck them right out of the ground!
Really didn't happen this way, not even close to what I expected. Hopefully either someone can explain the way to do it, or I can use the grapple to carry the pieces once I get them dug up with a root rake.
Any suggestions on how to use the grapple to uproot palmetto bushes in soft soil?
