I'll agree with the previous suggestions to try to find a decent Ford tractor with a brush mower. If your pasture is rough, you want to have a tractor with large tires to smooth out the ride. At least you will if you are my age!
But let me offer another point: Depending on where you are located, if your area has been in a drought like a large part of the country, there may be a lot of folks more than willing to cut 3 acres for the bales. Unless the fellow who cut your pasture last year has said that it's not worth his time, you might be surprised to find out that he needs the bales. And if he has said that he doesn't want to put up the hay, there may be plenty of others who would jump at the chance to do it.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
