I haven't been to a Homier sale yet where they had everything that they advertise in their flyer.
Conversely, I've seen things at their sales that weren't advertised in their flyers.

I think they also receive trucks throughout the four days of the sale. Even though they don't have something on Thursday when the sale begins doesn't mean it won't be there on Saturday or Sunday (and vicey versey).

I get disappointed when I go there and they don't have something that's advertised--
I would have like to see what a $599 finish mower looked like! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

They also sell via the web homier for those who dont have tent sales nearby. THe larger items might not be cost effective due to shipping but they are available.

( I did pull a "GREEN" stump about 14" high and 4' dia with out a problem. ) 

(assuming 4'... means 4 FOOT diameter stump!)

Ummmmmmmmmm...

I must be doing something drastically wrong... /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I can't do that with a 50 HP utility tractor (~8500 lbs gross)...

Please explain your secret technique... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

The secret to pulling 4 foot stumps with a compact tractor is in the methodology:

1) drive tractor from barn to stump.
2) back up to stump, pointed towards barn
3) leave tractor running
4) place 1/2 ton of dynamite under stump.
5) lite fuse
6) full throttle, top gear, crouch down for best aerodynamics.
7) arrive in barn just in time to avoid debris shower

I also wanted to see that finish mower... heck for 1000$ you could get a blade and rotary mower.. and finish mower... kinda scarry... unfortunately.. I always end up getting stuck at work or something and can't get there untill the last day or something.. and all the stuff is gone..

As with all the farm pro attachments. Its very light weight.

Thanks for response. I have not seen any Farm Pro stuff. I guess I need to check some out. I want a 48" tiller, but, will only use it three or four times a year on a 30' x 40', maybe some flower beds.
