How do you pick up rocks?

How much do you think about picking up rocks? Back in the day, you used just to rake small rocks and loose gravel into a pile. Then, your sibling or parent would stop by with the wheelbarrow into which you shovel the pile. If the rocks were too big to pick up, someone would attach a screen and plow the rocks into a better pile with a tractor.

Now, you have a better option with the rock grapple bucket. It attaches to most skid steer loaders with little effort. Plus, you have many buckets with various builds that you can select. No more raking rocks!
