Finally got grapple hooked up

[Guesseral]

I have Titan's 72" rake grapple and it is great for brush but picking up stumps and logs with it is not always easy. It is kind of like cutting something with dull kids scissors, what you are trying to cut keeps popping out the end. The rake style from Titan has small lower teeth and it does not grab odd shaped logs well.

Well that's not what I wanted to hear!:thumbdown:

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that is my experience. I am thinking of getting an L grapple or simply fixing up some "forks" that I can drop onto the grapple while trying to pick up large loads. Of course that lowers my payload. Having an opportunity o buy a C grapple over, I may have looked at the Wildkat Extreme. Anbo is so expensive, but they are nice.

Yea I already started to look at the Titan root grapple it has the lower forks and two upper arms it shouldn't have any problem picking up anything. I really didn't don't like the idea of two separate upper arms because I don't want to lift heavy items (like a large rock) on one side or the other because that isn't good on a loader and they can bend, and they don't open all that far but I don't think that would be a problem or not much.
Yea the anbo units are really nice altho they are really expensive I could justify getting both the rake and the root grapple and have it covered either way for about the same. Oh man I wish I hadn't just typed that now that is all I will think about!
