Mowing Belly vs Rear Mower

[Von]

Bird,
Your grass must be more springy than mine, might be the dry heat that you have, over our cool rainy days. I find that with the MMM I don't hit the blades in the ground like I did with the rear mount. This has alot to do with the mower decks more than anything, the woods didn't have anti-scalp rollers on it. I like being able to see what I am doing more without looking over my shoulder as before. Like I stated before, cleaning is the only hassle.

Von, my 60" Bush Hog does not have the optional anti-scalp roller either, and I was really concerned about the blades hitting the ground, and am still amazed that they don't hit the ground any more than the 38" Cub Cadet blades did.

Bird,
On the 72" woods mower that I had the wheels were on the outside corners up front and centered alittle more in the rear. But it sure could have used one up front in the middle. I was going to add one this year, as I found them for sale at Central tractor. But since I got rid of everything before having to cut the grass this year, I will let the new owner figure out if he needs one or not.
