john, depends on what kind of ground your gonna mow. between my two farms, i cut around 8 acres of grass, all kind of terrain, flat areas, ditches, tree infested areas, shrubs, bushes and the atv trails thru the woods for the kids. my fleet includes a farmall b with a 59 woods belly, farmall cub, 59 woods belly with a swisher 60" tow behind off set, farmall m with a woods rm600 3pt finish mower, cub cadet 122 with a 42"deck, deere l10 automatic with a 42"deck, and a huster 295 zero turn with a 72"deck. flat ground with a few trees, the zero turn is the fastest. the litle deer has knobby tires on the back, use it for the ditches that arent too steep. the cub with trailer i use for real steep ditches, i have a homemade swingin drawbar i can run the swisher offset about 8 ft off the side of the tractor so the cub stays on level ground, the swisher runs in the steep ditches.(i hate to roll a machine over). the cub and b cut nice, but the pto is not live, so if you back up a lot, its a pain, but in open ground the cub and swisher take 10 feet of grass each pass.
