This tree has four large roots coming up through the path.
The grinder is attached to the front of a skid steer Bobcat. It cuts through the asphalt and tree roots like a hot knife through butter.
It only took 25 minutes to grind this section of path.
The grinder has a drum with 3 inch carbide teeth that spins and easily rips through the roots and asphalt.
When the grinding is done the left over material is picked up and hauled away. It's then ready for new asphalt.
The finished path. This is a 450' long section of new path through the trees on the third hole.
This is the tree on the 7th hole that had a root coming up through the path that was at least six inches high. The root is gone and we don't have to drive around this area anymore.
