Good choice. You will love the batwing. I've had many cutters in my life, finish mowers, good rotary cutters, multi-spindles, ultra heavy duty (which I still have). But the Batwing, that thing just makes me smile when I hook it up. It mows so nicely, it follows the land better than my zero turn, it does a fantastic job, it's easy to use/hook up, I don't have to run at 10MPH to make progress. I love it, it's perhaps the best implement purchase I've ever made (and also, the most expensive). Honestly, the only downside? Zerks. So many zerks. Greasing the thing is an hour job, there are just so many moving points that need it it's ridiculous. But I'm also ridiculous with maintaining gear, so.. There's that.
I'd buy another one tomorrow if it was stolen, no doubt. I have the Woods BW12 and a Kioti 60HP to swing it, using it mostly to clip pastures, but I've never felt "low on HP" in any normal situation. No, it's not gonna mow flat out in 4ft high grass, but I never do/need that. It'll mow as fast as I care to go over my uneven ground and do a fantastic job doing it. It cuts the mowing time a little more then 1/2 from my old 6ft, and it does a much, much better job. You made the right decision, just get a powered grease gun to go with it, you'll want it quickly when you realize the ridiculous number of points that call for regular greasing!
