So what does the finished cut look like from the betstco, could you cut a lawn with it? Powerwise does it work that b9200 much? Was thinking about getting atleast the 60" or 64" for my tc24d will be cutting 3 or so acres by my pond every 2 to 3 weeks but possibly using it on the lawn too.

i tested a section on my front yard, looked great.
My tractor has 21.5 HP,and it works the the 56" flail mower easily , i could have prolly gotten away getting a 60"

I just received my new flail mower from Betst, and it seems like a pretty good deal. $1000 for a 64" mower, and another $200 for the heavier brush blade kit. Betst is in Oregon, and I'm in Washington, so it arrived in a couple of days. Freight was included in the price, too.
It took about an hour to uncrate it and put it together, and I was able to give it a fairly limited trial yesteday. Western Washington has lots of huckleberry and salal, and the mower goes through that easily enough. My property is uneven, with lots of stumps and such, so a flail seemed like a better choice than a rotary mower for me. A bonus is that it's not as long as a rotary mower, so it leaves the tractor just a bit more maneuverable.
The mower has a two-year warranty, too, which helped me make my decision.

He's asking a good bit more on ebay now compared to what ya'll paid, or did ya'll just bid low?
I'm seriously considering one. I've been bush hogging my back 3 acres for the last couple of years, and its at the point now that it could use a cleaner cut.
