Mowing L3800 & 12' batwing question.

   / L3800 & 12' batwing question. #11  
The other aspect of this is that finish mowers are meant to cut the grass every 7 days -- so it never gets to looking like a hay field. That's why they have lower HP requirements than rough cut mowers.

If they want it cut every 30 days, it's a rough cut. If they want a finish mower result, it's every 7 days. They don't get finish mower result and a 30 day cut!

Yeah thats why I was asking how tall it was going to get in a month,if I let my yard go a month well I would probaly have to get the shredder out. Seems like they are just wonting to knock it down,every now and then so it doesnt get to out of control but if it was me I would rather mow it twice then only the one time they were asking,maybe come up with some other agreement.

Interesting, but looks like a maintenance headache waiting to happen? Must be well behaved flat land to mow over?

What is your take on them?

I have only used the push kind, and that has been along time ago but they cut good. I didnt look to see if they had any videos on youtube but will look later.
