The stump jumper is a misleading name that has nothing to do with stumps. It provided the place to attach the blades so they can bounce or flex when they hit something hard, or get overwhelmed. It provides a pivot point while the blades are spinning.
Most common stump jumpers are round disks, but Rhino has a design that is shaped like a dog bone that they say is better. If I had the money, I would of bought Rhino. I think they have a lot of features that are better then other brands.
The smaller mower will allow you to cut thicker material, but once you cut it, it will take a lot longer to maintain it. In my opinion, it is better to get as big a mower as you can, and then go super, extra slow the first time you mow. Set the deck as high as you can to knock everything down and then go over it another day to get it shorter.
Once you have the land under control, you will be very happy to have the bigger mower to maintain it and keep it under control.
