I have a 375 count tree planting project coming up , mid April to mid May depending on when the nursery harvests the bare root stock. 300 burr oak and 75 white oak.

I ordered a dibble bar and wanted one made in the USA. This thing is a beast and no joke!

I did not pay attention to the color when I ordered it but without being down at the land and comparing with my L2501 I would say it comes very close to Kubota orange.

that's a great tool for the job and nice that standard forestry colours match our tractors.

a pulp hook and a hookaroon... my two most favourite / useful hand tools.

You'll be very happy with the color even if it doesn't match your tractor. I bought a San Angelo bar about 10 years ago while doing a sidewalk here. It was black. After discovering how hot it became in the sun I painted it with some leftover orange spray paint. It no longer gets hot in the sun and is easier to spot.

I misread that as "Dribble bar" and thought that you were pulling a slurry tank around with your tractor! šŸ˜‚
