As a contract mower, I use a mower that is open at the back. That way I do a few laps to open up the paddock, and then instead of doing sections, I go backwards and forwards working my way across the paddock. My tractor is Kubota hyd shuttle, so same speed forwards and backwards.
You should try it, cause I didnt beleive how fast it was until I tried it.
I did like your video by the way.
When you're mowing the really thick stuff have you ever had your pto kick out of gear? I've been having that problem lately.
ОтветитьAwesome
ОтветитьSince you ran the video quite fast I wasn't able to get a good look of the back of the brush hog. I "think" that I saw that the brush hog had the back open, no covering to stop the grass from being pushed out. Am I right? If so, can you tell me why you have that open. I'm actually thinking about removing the back of my brush hog as I have some very tall weeds that when cutting I seem to get quite a large amount of cuttings that cause to brush hog and tractor to bog down.
ОтветитьI use a 5 foot bush hog as well but when I make the 20 or 30 foot parallel pass in the other direction I go to the first pass and cut parallel to first pass then back parallel to second pass. So I travel the same distance on the end, every time, and when I finish the block it is twice as big as the part left between the first two parallel passes. My end pass is always the same 20 or 30 feet but I've now cut a 40 or 60 wide patch of the field. then I just move another 20 to 30 feet over and do it again. I didn't come up with this method but it's how I do it every time. And like you, I just sight something on the other side and mow straight to it. The field just looks pretty after mowing this way.
ОтветитьGood video. What height do you have the deck set to?
ОтветитьGreat video! I have a big John Deere with s 90" land pride and thought today that there has to be a more efficient way of doing this. I have roughly 120 acres. Thank you for showing and explaining this.
ОтветитьI like to mow in a circle from the center of the field outwards. This way I can keep moving forward until the mowed circle reaches the sides. Then I knock out the corners in a back & forth pattern. There is a limit to the efficiency in this pattern. A very large area like 10+ acres I doubt it saves much time over mowing in parallel lines.
ОтветитьOr just simply hog the fence row and clean the corners then lap it. Same time and fuel usage either way.
ОтветитьI have '56 Farmall 200 3-wheeler , I pull a 5' Woods sling-blade. My fields are long and narrow, so I do pivots on the ends.
ОтветитьI bushgog really similar way I’ll have four or five sections going. I tried just about ever way possible. I dislike going in squares around the whole field cuz my corners always get so wacky snd I don’t like the foot break cuz it tears the ground up so bad
ОтветитьGreat information! I’ve never used that method, but it makes sense. 👍 …and trust me, if they prefer a green tractor, they will tell you. 😂
