Here is the one that mounts on a zero turn mower. The brush looks to be 6’ tall and he rips through it like regular lawn.
Looks real nice. You don’t even have turf tires and the grass looks smooth as a football field. Is that the offset cutter?This was yesterday with my Maschio Tigre 300. It cuts and mulches weeds and brush just as good.
Let me start by saying I'm grew up a city guy living the country life now. I don't know all these farm implement names, terms, etc. So please ignore my ignorance.
Anywho, I own 10 acre field a few miles from me. Nothing is there, it's just a field. I had local guy cut it for rough hay for his horses for a few years which kept it rough trimmed. He has since stopped over the past 2 years, so I was going to start cutting it myself once or twice a year just to keep it trimmed. I own a New Holland TC18 and a 4' finish mower rear discharge, and I unfortunately sold my brush hog a few years back. I was thinking I could use the finish mower at it's highest level to cut this field. It's not thick, just some weeds and growth could be like 3ft high or so.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance..
Yessir. Hydraulic, both ways. I've always run R1 tires and never had an issue. When it's really wet they will leave imprints but they grow over. One thing about R1s is that they don't mash the grass down like turfs and R4s do. This mower is like a vacuum. I absolutely love it. I've always cut this with a 20' Frontier FM but since I got this I've been using it. Takes longer but who cares.Looks real nice.

I would have guessed the opposite from R1 treads. It seems they would make deep dents. You obviously have the process down very well. The field looks nice enough to rent out to soccer or football clubs for practice.Yessir. Hydraulic, both ways. I've always run R1 tires and never had an issue.

There should be another guy in the area that's willing to cut your field for hay. After it's cleaned up and you know what quality your hay is you can have someone cut it and bale for you to sell, or they'll cut and bale for a share.I had local guy cut it for rough hay for his horses for a few years which kept it rough trimmed.
