Sounds like you are dragging trees/logs with your Cub. Be careful with that activity. Hit a stump with the end of that log and you could be under the tractor in less than the blink of an eye.

Sounds to me like he is ripping stuff out of the ground with it, like little bushes and trees?

I am indeed dragging trees and stuff around as you suspect. Will try and be careful. I normally lift the logs onto the pull bar to avoid the issue you're addressing, but will keep my eyes open. As to this thread, I did end up driving over my septic field a few times and no issues yet.

I think you’ll be fine. I wouldn’t try it in the Spring when the ground is soggy, though.
