Kubota Grass Bagger worth it?

[RalphVa]

I am looking at adding a bagger for fall use. I actually like the mowing with the fine cut 54" deck without bagging, though I cut pretty often and the results look great to me. But when the fall comes heavy debris and leaves will need something more. Does anyone here own the bagger and does it work well and any other thoughts? thank you

Never bagged leaves. Just discharge inward until about to choke up. Then make a round discharging outward. Then go back to inward. Worked well on 5 acres of church property with lots of mature oak trees. Leaves do not acidify the soil. Do initially but then go neutral.

I would say no.

Mounting is just too much.
3 bag capacity too low.
Really full bags weigh a bit.

A towed/PTO'd fan/container that could be opened/dumped remotely (from seat) would be worth it.

Storage would be the down side - but 3 bagger needs storage too, so...

The Protero system is pretty awesome.

I have it on a BadBoy. Simple dump from the seat.

I know they make it in a 3-pt ***** set up.

Pricy though.
