Hello new to the site and im enjoying it.Im clearing some right aways and im wondering whats the best setup to go with?it's mostly brush and some areas have a few 8" trees not a whole lot.A dedicated machine would not justify it for me as far as work wise im clearing the right aways and then will mow them year round and i could use a skidsteer around.so can ya give me the setup to go with skidsteer and head:confused:

I would encourage you to look into hiring out your clearing and getting a smaller more reasonable skid steer for your chores. Unless the clearing you have is a real big job buying a 100 hp machine and a head to only use the power and cutter once is not appealing to me personally. Mulching requires high flow and as much horsepower that you can afford. Where a 60hp skid steer will work like crazy around the house or farm it will not last a day as a mulcher. Just one man's opinion but you asked for it.

I would suggest buying a 2006 ASV RC 100 w/ FAE mulching head complete with gaurds and 16,500 warn winch for $42,000. (approx 1400 hours}
