[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5839460, member: 2805"] I bet it will be hard to rent a mulching head for your skid steer... #1, they are EXPENSIVE. #2, the hourly maintenance that has to be done on them is necessary to make them last. Not to mention you need one of the bigger skid steers to actually run most of them. If the bulk of the brush is less than 2 in thick saplings, I'd bush hog with tractor or your skid steer. The biggest advantage of the mulching head is the roots, brush stumps will be ground down to below dirt level... so you can plant right away, the brush is less likely to resprout, and you don't have to worry about puncturing tractor tires. The mulching head can also easily and quickly handle saplings up to 4 inches in diameter. It can handle larger than that, but becomes significantly slower and more tedious. [/QUOTE]
