I'm contemplating the effectiveness of using a tree-spade bucket (also called a spoon or spade-nosed bucket). One is made by FFC and maybe there are others. I understand the versatility of the design and like how it can carry a tree, some mulch and dig a hole. How well does this work for digging holes for planting new trees? How much do you have to move the skid steer around to dig each hole? What about tight sites near structures? I just don't see them being used in our area and wonder why. We have clay soils and some shale 'soils' but regular tree spades are pretty popular here.
