I've brushhogged with a DR-walk behind mower for years. Hands-down, it is my very favorite piece of mechanized equipment. If you haven't ever used one, they're the slickest device, as they're balanced nicely, geared perfectly and unstoppable no matter the slope. Problem for me is, I've developed an intolerance to poison ivy in the last year. So, trapsing through the woods has gotten more challenging.
I'm thinking about borrowing a friend's 4' brush hog and trying it out, but don't want to damage the thing. My question is: can brush hogs sustain frequent knicks with rocks? I have plenty of rocks in the woods and would do my best to keep the blade elevated, but am sure I'll hit a few.
