unless there is an import ban, i would think you could get these but the price might be very high, thanks for watching!

thank you, im pretty sure i bought these from MWE and overall they have been great, expensive but worth it IMO and experience

thanks jumpsuit yes i had to stand there like a statue holding the crossbow while standing with all my gear strapped on me because i was just getting ready to climb down when this deer came from my left less than 20yds, she would have seen me if i had moved which is why you see the video "frozen" and the camera tilted for a couple minutes, did you see the squirrel at about 2:00? did you happen to notice the 8pt buck at the bottom center of the screen??? if you look you can see his antlers! i did not see this deer at all but the camera did, i would NOT have shot him regardless, but it is interesting to see what we miss that the camera picks up, i didn't see the squirrel or the 8pt until reviewing the video, thanks for watching!

If it's leagle its leagle pow.. save your disrespect for something else.

@@kirbyharrold9 ok how about this for disrespect-you spelled legal wrong. Twice. If you want to correct me, wait until I’m wrong and you’re right.

@johnk5193, it was a crossbow hunt and self-videod--not professionally filmed, where are your videos and subscribers? I would love to see some of your content so I could critique it, thanks for watching

the msrp on this at the time was about $13,500, since then dealers have had them for around $13,000, I actually paid less than that so if you want one see what your dealer can do for you, i was thinking i referenced getting a polaris 570 base model and then with the add-ons it would have been $15,000ish, tell me what the timestamp was that you were referring to and I'll review, thanks for watching!

yes i think there are several brands that use a lot of the same parts, we got the 760 with a snowblade, winch, cameras, doors, cab top, windshield for under that number BUT we also bought 2 machines so the dealer gave us a pretty good price on both, i wish now we had bought 2 of the 760s BUT the 850 is OK but definitely not as user-friendly as the 760 in my experience, thanks for watching!

you are welcome, yep you can get a "name brand" base model with little or no accessories for the "out the door price" of one of these from my research, i said about $13,500 i think so $13,000 is pretty close, definitely recommend this 760 over the 850 we bought, you are welcome and thanks for watching!

I think you're better of getting a name brand with no options than one of these. Sounds like they are nothing but issues for the most part. I think as always....you get what you pay for. And a Honda or Yamaha will pay for itself with bulletproof reliability.

there was a small 13pt with a 3-way split on his left side, but this is the first time i have seen this 12pt at the farm, we haven't hunted in 2 weekends due to the weather, hoping to go out this weekend and hunt and also check all the cameras, thanks for watching "mr badger"

i thot it was pretty exciting, this is a first for me, thanks for watching!

i'm not sure what that means, BUT i have more trail cam pics coming! there's a new big boy in town--a 12pt with some splits! thanks for watching!

thank you and thank you for watching!

Ps i live the netherlands.

yes, these tracks are amazing, i paid about $5000 for the whole setup and it has been worth it, i will not work without them ever again, thanks for watching!

based on my experience: top speed on this unit was 53-55mph by my gps the day we brought it home from the dealer with driver only, do NOT expect to get that carrying 3 adults, i would say 45mph is a safer bet, definitely get the 760 over the 850 for yard work even tho the 850 has a steel fold down bed, 760 is just a better machine all around with its features, plus you have 1 wheel drive "turf mode" on the 760 as the 850 is always in "posi-traction" and tears stuff up quite a bit, if you are regularly going to carry 3 passengers then consider the 5 seater altho it is quite a bit longer, all these machines sound loud to me, the massimos are no exception, get yourself about 3 sets of those motorcycle communicators would be my advice and then you don't have to worry about the noise as much, i would recommend the 760 over the 550 for the extra power, the 550 over the 760 for the price, both have good options, thanks for watching!

​@@clr1001thanks!! I actually pulled the trigger and picked up my 760 just the other day. So far I'm happy...but these things are louder than I like. I guess that's just the way they all are. After driving the 760 and 560, the power steering along is worth it. I also found out I can get the metal bed from the 550f by itself and install it on my 760 as a bolt on, which I plan to do. So I'm basically building a 760f lol...which I can't believe they don't offer. Only problems I have is my low beams don't work, and the engine temp doesn't work on the touchscreen. I'm bringing it back to the dealer as I'm sure it's just some connecters or something. Thanks for your content and answers

@@dev-null i really hope it works out for you, our 760 seems to be a better machine overall than the 850, but i still like the 850, i plowed some snow with the 760 yesterday as we got 3 inches of snow, i'm glad you can get the metal bed if you decide you want it, and yes they are loud but it's not a deal breaker for us, the low beams / high beams are crap so i installed some 18w square leds on the front and back and they worked great last nite--really lit things up when i was plowing--almost like daylight, thanks for watching!

@@clr1001 subscribed as well. Watching some of your older videos...good stuff. Yeah...I already put an LED light bar on the front, and some spot lights on the back to see the bed and a trailer I hook up at night. I found a lot of rattle is from the doors, I tightened the hinges....and also adjusted the door latches so they are tighter. Took out a lot of the rattle. When I get the metal bed I might coat the bottom with some sound deadener before putting it on. Thanks for all the info. Good luck with yours as well.

@@dev-null hey thanks for watching the older videos, too! there's some decent content there somewhere ha! glad you put the LEDs on, you will like it sooo much more, i threw a sheet of 3/4 inch treated plywood in the bed, and that takes a lot of the rattle out, also, the flip down sides and tailgate seem to rattle a bit as well, thanks again for watching!

sorry to hear that, i haven't had that happen...yet, i will definitely post the truth if either or both of these machines turn out to be a turd, thanks for watching!

thank you and thanks for watching!

i most likely would NOT add spacers but if I could get slightly more extended rims I would do that, there is about 1/4 inch gap between the rear "fender" on my machine and tracks, I would like to have another 1/2 inch if possible, but it's not the end of the world, these do "shift" from side to side slightly during use, they also rub on the loader arms up front when i put my boom clear down, neither is a deal - breaker, overall i still am thoroghly impressed with these tracks, thanks for watching!

yup i am very disappointed 2 of these 4 tires have leaked off (from where?) since they were brand new, i would air up every day without fail when i ran this machine 8 hours a day 5 days a week in the woods clearing timber, i will definitely check out the flat guard, thank you and thanks for watching!

sorry, been hunting (no good ones), just got to answering, i have not had the throttle cable stick...yet, i also wrapped the exhaust from the front cylinder and the rear cylinder and the "Y" to the muffler in exhaust wrap, this has helped tremendously with the heat, i haven't adjusted the shifter cable...yet, mechanic said massimo knows this is a common problem, thanks for watching!

yah there's a couple decent ones there, the small 13pt and the bigger 10pt--sometimes we never see them again tho--somebody shoots them instead of letting them grow, i will have a hard time passing on that 10pt, i could proly let the 13pt go, if nobody shoots either of them they will be really nice, thanks for watching!

it was a great shot

I'll tell her! This is her second doe ever. She shot her first doe the day before at 35 yards, and it was pretty much a perfect shot. This shot was not as good as the first, but this deer bled out quickly and it was a short tracking job at about 50 yards from where it was shot. She had only shot targets with a crossbow before this season. Thanks for watching!

i don't think so, but sometimes i do set it down and it pushes the tab from one side to the other, that would generally be my first guess tho, i eventually got it, thanks for watching!

Short answer: NO, Long answer: NO, I have used these rubber over steel tracks in very extreme conditions and they have never come off the wheels after 1000s of hours--if that is what you are asking? The punctures into the track have NOT seemed to affect the performance. There is some wear on the stainless rods that tie the tracks together but that is to be expected after several 1000 hours of use / abuse. The "wedge" sections that go around the tires make it virtually impossible for the tracks to come off from side to side, something would have to break in order for that to happen, I have only had them slip on me 1x front to back when I got into a creek bed and submerged the entire machine so far that I had water coming up thru the belly and soaking my feet (my UNSTUCK video), the rubber on rubber design is extremely good, there are also drive wedges / lugs on the inside of the tracks that correspond to the drive surface of the tires and they lock in quite well, I have used these tracks in snow, mud, sand, on asphalt (they will tear up asphalt just like metal tracks), on grass, and in the woods mowing brush, shearing trees, grappling brush and logs, and using the Bobcat as a skidder with a special drawbar my Dad made for the 3pt hitch plate (like a 3pt hitch on a tractor), I've said it before but I will say it again here: These tracks add about another 1000# to the machine, about 3 inches height off the ground so check your attachments to make sure they work like you want them to, another 50% +/- in stability (my estimate), and maybe 25% +/- in lift / tipping capacity, please let me know if you have any other questions and I will do my best to answer, thanks for watching!

i don't know why there are lines thru my response, i hope you can read everything, i've never had YT do that before...

@@clr1001 Thank you for the detailed answer. They look like a great product. I read it just fine. Thank you.

they DO make wheel spacers to offset the wheels and you CAN buy them so you can use your factory rims, i contacted several dealers when I was researching buying these and they were either all in cahoots or they were giving me good advice: they all said I could use wheel spacers but cautioned me about the wheel spacers coming loose from the machine hubs and creating a bigger problem, if you do it right I think it would be OK, that being said, do it at your own risk, you would be putting 8-lug spacers on your hubs and then bolting on another 8 lugs for your rims, if you torqued them down to the proper specs with some medium thread-locker on the spacer bolts it would probably be OK, I didn't want to take the risk so I went with the offset rims, I think it was about 6 3/4" offset +/-, I wish I had gotten at least another 1/2 inch offset because my tracks rub slightly on the back end sometimes and when I let my arms all the way down it does shine up about 1/4 inch +/- under my arms, it hasn't seemed to hurt anything but it does rub slightly, in 6+ years I have never had a problem with my extended rims coming loose inside the tracks, I think the wheel spacers are very heavy if I remember correctly as well, something like 50# + per wheel, I would think they would have to be to handle the torque of a skidsteer and the tracks, the manufacturer DOES recommend getting extra-wall tires for these particular tracks and they DO rub inside the tracks but it's never caused me any problems so far, also 2 of the 4 extended rims leak off and it's not a huge deal but I air up all 4 tires to 65psi every time I use the machine, again, do any of this at your own risk but I have been very satisfied with these tires / rims / tracks overall, and remember the price tag of $5000ish for the new tires, rims, and tracks at the time I bought them, good luck!

@@jumpsuitsniper7386 Thanks for all the info. I'm trying to learn as much as I can before I start spending money!

@@keithlol you are welcome, i know $5K is a lot to spend on tracks, for my purposes it was worth it, i have done some amazing things in some areas i never would have gone, especially land management chopping brush and shearing trees in remote and hilly areas, good luck

www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Motors/Low-Speed-High-Torque-Hydraulic-Motors/7-63-cu-in-PTO-Drive-Motor-BMSY125E2SLS-9-7368-125.axd , my machine is rated for 18gpm which is a little less than the recommended minimum but it works fine, if you get this one make sure to get the fittings to convert to 1/2 npt hydraulic hoses if that is what you want to use, also make sure to get the check valve (about $20) it's well worth it, if you hit something hard enough to stop the blade the fluid just cycles in a big loop and won't tear up your motor, at least it hasn't on mine yet, www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Valves/Check-Lock-Valves/1-2-NPT-15-GPM-5000-PSI-HYD-CHECK-VALVE-WOLVERINE-WCV800-9-16140-8.axd, it cost me about $1000 for parts plus some angle iron and of course my labor, good luck!

i will be checking it out in a little while sir

@@jumpsuitsniper7386 i was joking about this video being SCUM game 😂

@@Janzer_ lol that went right over my head, i figured you watched this video and you were letting me know there was yet another update, it does look like the most recent update is more inline with what i wanted

not sure if you are trying to be funny or just trolling? i can take it off whenever i want by removing the 4 bolts in the front, no crane or friends needed, as for poor i guess that is a matter of varying opinions, as for this being a crap bed cover that also would likely be a matter of varying opinions, it has worked out quite well for me, if it needs paint i repaint it, if i scratch it i don't mind, and i know it's safe to walk on easily holding over 200# in any one spot on the entire surface of the bed, thanks for watching

i'll allow you this 1 snide comment before i ban you and remove your post(s), i will also answer your question, regardless: we have multiple permits here, so there's always a chance another deer would come along trailing this deer and i could shoot it as well, generally i can reload my crossbow in under 2 minutes fairly quietly, it's not great but i have done it a couple times, also thanks for watching

i just saw this post or i would have responded sooner, i'm pretty happy with this setup, it's definitely NOT a top of the line--rather closer to bottom of the line but i have my time and about $1000 in it compared to buying a similar ready-to-go chopper for $3000 or more, if this one gets tore up i will just take my parts off and go get another used mower of similar size and fix it up! thanks for watching!

it was midwest something i think, check my other videos, i might have put it on there? i got the replacement backplate off amazon, thanks for watching!

just curious, how did you get dirt and rocks packed in these tracks? mine have cleaned out very well overall? what kind of material were you in? thanks

thank you and thanks for watching!

Thank you! Thanks for watching!

Potentially, yes, but I try not to shoot little does and small bucks unless I can't get anything else. Normally, our farm has lots of does every year and a sprinkling of shooter bucks every 5 years or so. Thanks for watching!
