Land Pride 11' Flex Grooming Mower

Re: Land Pride 11\' Flex Grooming Mower

Crisswell, I was looking into the flex mowers for a while too. I do some athletic field mowing, two small school districts but it wasn't enough to justify the price tag. I have a buddy of mine that has one on the golf course he works at. He said his was set up with the anti scalp rollers and work well in un-even areas and around the sand traps. I run a land pride 84" RFM with a NH TC40D. Takes me about 2 1/2 hrs per school. Landpride does make terriffic equipment but I was looking at the Befco ez-flex because it was a three point hitch model. I thought it may be easier to trailer as opposed to the tow behind units. Befco.com. As for pricing, you can get an idea from Wikco.com. Let us know if you decide to get one. Best of luck.

Re: Land Pride 11\' Flex Grooming Mower

Thanks again for the responses and the websites, Property Maint! I'm not in a rush to make a purchase like this, just trying to gather facts. I've got about 8 acres to finish mow around the house and have been looking for something that can get me through it in 2 hours or less - without going at full throttle! The acreage is broken up some, and has some hills that you'd like to be able to mow across the face, rather than up and down. They're not real steep, but definitely have some slope. A golf course here in Western PA would be a good comparison.

Thanks again for the info.

Andy
