Woodtick Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 They are very slow. Very slow and 0 suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKIQPilot Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Very slow. No where near 30mph. More like 15. Very rough riding. Your spine will hate you for it. Maintenance hogs. Even the new ones require continual upkeep. My next door neighbor has a 2016 argo max. They are nice as far as argos go but still slow and clumsy going down the trail.

XCR1250 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 We use a Flailer mounted on a skid steer with a extendable long arm, can also be used to cut vertically to remove lower handing branches up to 10 feet high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they use same thing up on north shore on a tractor . I cant believe more clubs with swamp do not pack down cat tails in fall . how many groomers have sunk in cat tails ? we knock down all we can with quads and SXS then the kid whos dad has a argo would run the deep water cat tails. looks like we can rent them some place close to us for a weekend . I may rent one next summer just to bring to cabin and go to some of the places I have only been in the winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
