Warhammer- Sounds quite similar... very hard to mow without getting severe pains... Thanks for the pictures, still looks pretty flat overall. I have some pretty unique hills in the front and back yard, which we'll keep, though smoothing the transitions would be great.. The pictures are helpful...
peterssj4034- Thanks for the info, I would imagine we have similar soil conditions, I'm in the Mansfield area here. What did you pull the discs and the plow with? holding onto those? or selling the implements. I am hoping to find something compact enough the BX2660 can handle, yet large enough I don't have to spend 2 years on it. I will at least look for a good set of discs, I already have a landscape rake, which I would think would help smooth out the dirt/clumps when all said and done.
I am concerned about doing the work, and not getting it seeded right away, thinking water will erode the dirt and make trenches in it again (that is what happened as the house was being built) Lots of stones, large and small, the rake should help remove those, as long as I can get enough weight on the discs to do some 'digging'... I plan to tackle a couple acres as a time, rather than try to do all 5 at once, as I don't have much free time to play with the land & tractor right now.
