Grappling fun - A Picture Thread....

[IslandTractor]

Didn't you read Pistons post? No more of this nonsense. All of us double lid guys can keep our double lid grapples and all you single lid grapples guys can keep your single lid grapples. They both obviously work for the owners intended purpose, and that's all that matters. You'd think Obama was trying to ban one type of grapples just looking at all the nonsense over it.

Yes I read Piston's post. 1) This is TBN: a tractor DISCUSSION forum. If he wants to post pictures only let him start a group on Instagram. 2) If he wants to write a two page diatribe against other people commenting then he needs to accept that there will be a reply. 3) If you report a post at least ask the moderators to remove ALL the posts that are off topic not just the reply to the diatribe.

I think I will order a single lid grapple for my XR4046HC, to go with my present 84" HD dual lid grapple so, I can vote in both primaries?

Did someone say LS XR?
Here's an XR4047 with a 60" Single Lid Wicked Grapple.

One of these grapples would be cool to have for moving logs.

And some folks think a double lid adds too much weight - that thing moves the lift point out another 3'!

Grapple Man's Creed

This is my grapple. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My grapple is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
My grapple, without me, is useless. Without my grapple, I am useless. I must clamp my grapple true. I must haul brush straighter than my enemy who is trying to out-haul me. I must move my brush pile before he moves his. I will...
My grapple and I know that what counts in life is not the limbs we collect, the crunch of our lid closing, nor the smoke we make from the burn pile. We know that it is the results that count. We will generate results...
My grapple is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its tines and its lid. I will keep my grapple clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...
Before God, I swear this creed. My grapple and I are the defenders of our land. We are the masters of our property. We are the saviors of my life.
So be it, until victory is America's and there is no brush to move, logs to haul, stumps and rocks to engage, or roots to grub. Then peace and harmony will reign on our tracts!

Piston asked that the subject be dropped.

Here is one from a few years back when I was clearing a thicket. That is a 60 HP TLB under there to get a feel for the size of the pile. I had a heck of a time climbing out to take the picture.

Actually this was a grappling picture thread. It you want to have a knock down drag out there are plenty of other threads.

You should watch the video and maybe you'll understand my statement a little better.

Piston is not my master either.

Man, I'd vote for ya! :laughing:
We're blessed to have you as a customer for the awesome Wicked Grapple pics AND the beautiful, Grapple inspired poetry.

If that doesn't restore peace to this thread, I don't know what will.....
