Signed papers on my 2538 HST last week, should be picking it up in the next few days after a few items are added on. Going to use it on my little piece of heaven in the Texas Hill Country where we hunt and plan to retire to in a few years. Can't wait to put it to work. I think it will do what I need to do. Thanks for the add, look forward to lots of postings.

It is 50 acres. I don't need to keep all of it maintained. I need to keep my trails to the blinds cleared and clear out some brush for some open areas to try and get some food plots in. Lots of rock so it will be a chore. I can't wait to try out the grapple when it's time to move cuttings to the burn pile.

Thanks for all the welcomes to the site. I'm sure it will become an addiction. Have a great day everyone.

Yes, 50 acres can be a handful. I do not have that much land and it seems that I never have enough time with fixing fences, moving dirt, putting in a new road including a 20' culvert, etc..

So true, not enough hours in a day or days in a week, but I don't think I could survive any more.

Me too, my son is also waiting for it to get here. We are going to retire the wheelbarrow and shovel.

I know what you are talking about there. Know I get more accomplished but the problem is that the better half seems to come up with even more to put on the "To Do" list.

Welcome and congrats. My cousin and his wife live in Pearland. I believe they go to the Presbyterian church.

I love Leakey. Which direction from town is your place?

My wheelbarrow only gets used to mix up sacrete so I can pour it with a little bit better aim.

There is a wealth of info here...for free!

I'm out RR 337 West a little over 7 miles towards Campwood. Locals say I'm "on top of the hill". I guess that is right since there is a nice elevation change on the way to my place. I won't get rid of the wheelbarrow, just won't use it quite as much. Probably like you, just a small amount of concrete.
