Guys,

Thanks to all for the recommendations. We decided to plunk down our bucks on the DK35...I just wish it had the built-in cupholder [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] . The dealer will have it all to us next week [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

For now, I'm going to gamble with a 84" rear discharge finish mower for a couple of reasons. The pasture does look pretty much like a lawn except for the patties for which I'm getting a chain harrow and believe it or not the wif' actually enjoys mowing it every couple of weeks! Also due to our currently limited shed storage area the "roll-around" ability and minimal depth of a RFM should help some. I can still pickup a smaller rotary locally and store it under a tarp if it becomes absolutely necessary.

Thanks to all and wish us luck!
