Southern Loggin’ Times magazine Contributing Editor Jordan Anderson travels to Clarendon, Arkansas to visit Jason Fly Logging, LLC. In the fall of 2016 Jason Fly, 41, worked with Daniel Morgan, his salesman at Stribling Equipment in Tupelo, Miss., and Tom Hirt, owner of FSK Equipment & Supply, based in McKinney, Tex., who represents Log Max in Fly’s region, to acquire a new John Deere 3756G swing machine equipped with a new Log Max 12000XT processing head—the largest on the market. At 107,000 lbs., the 3756G is also the largest swing machine Deere makes. The 12000XT is almost 10 ft. high and weighs 9,300 lbs. The investment totaled more than $675,000. Fly and his employees affectionately refer to the machine combo, something usually seen on the steep slopes far to the Northwest, as “The Hulk.”
