    Super curious to know what you guys think of this video! Which angle did you find the most pleasing to watch? Inside the cab POV? Drone footage? GoPro on top of Bobby?

    • @elizabethannfarrow1971
      @elizabethannfarrow1971 Před 10 měsíci +7

      Yeah I like the Drone footage but actually I like it all but the drone footage actually makes them trees like you got got them all too close together packed in like sardines.

      I like all three perspectives, but drone and GoPro more than inside the cab. The mix in the editing gives a good overall view of the project.

      I also feel that the combination of drone and bobcat pov footage works great together. One compliments the other. Having just the drone or bobcat footage by itself would get a little stagnant when watching. Great work without all mate (the videos, the projects, the work and time you put in).

    This was strangely fascinating to watch. It's clear to me you sure got the hang of how to run bobby. I am guessing you took the plot elevation review and knew where to fill those gradients so they were even with the rest of the property while completing your concept for making the ice melt and water go the right route. I love the drone footage. But the go pro on the top of bobby's cab was a great view of you working well with the bucket and arms. So who was running bobby's clone? Your dad or one of your friends? The way you smoothly carried all that dirt was impressive. I liked the music you added. The slow jazz fit the concept very well. This was fun, thanks Mitch and have a great rest of the weekend. GO YARD GEEK!!! 💜🚜🥾🦺

    • @TheYardGeek

I know you drilled a well for your yard and outdoor hookups to save on water bills so was wondering if an investment in solar for your house or shop would be worth it considering the price of oil at the moment. I know there are various green grants to offset initial cost but also know prices for oil and gas in the prairies can be much cheaper than other places in Canada
