Root rake or flat blade better for a new food plot in a 5 year old cutt over?

Go with a root rake. It'll save your top soil, plus get more of the roots.

Root rake for sure.

root rake


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Most everybody I know has a root rake that just pins to the dozer blade. If there are any bigger stumps out there an excavator will works circles around a dozer.

central ala,
Well, naturally, I have to be different. Given the equation of 5 yr. cut over means there is some pretty good regrowth with stumps. 5 years the pine stumps should be pretty rotten. Hardwoods could be with you a while. For me, if I had a choice of ANYTHING dozer related, I would go over it with just a blade piling up the debris. Burn it and push the rest off. Then, come back with a ripper. The ripper would serve 2 purposes: Get the roots up and break the hard pan. Usually, the root rake won't get to the hard pan. I built a ripper for my dozer that does well. It's not hydraulic and I have to take it on and off moving the dozer but it works. My 2nd choice would be the root rake.
