That word "always" can be fairly misleading with a low sample size...

My experience has been as follows:

Craftsman 12.5 small LT High Pucker
Toro 520H larger GT Less Pucker
Deere X749 Largest GT even Less Pucker
Deere 2520 CUT (larger yet) More Pucker

It has to do with the design of each piece of equipment. Designed well, a very large piece of equipment can have a very low pucker.

The sample size is 7 tractors.
How many should I try out before I come to a conclusion, 100 500 1000?

Why mow wet grass?
