Tom, I've had the best use of rotary mowers from "Woods". You can pull a 6' rotary mower behind your M and it won't even know it's there. My personal opinion is that you should get a mower equipped with a shear bolt (using grade 2 bolts) instead of a slip clutch. The slip clutches are OK, but will eventually need adjusting and parts. A grade 2 shear bolt costs about .75 cents. I have looked at the King Kutter mowers. They are a light duty mower and they have a poor set up of angle iron used as a "stump jumper". You'll get what you pay for. I know nothing of the "Wallace Brush Cutter" brand. Try to go with a good brand of rotary mower if you're going to be using it often. If you are cutting light grass on a clean field with no hidden obstructions (rocks) or woody growth, you may get by with a lower quality and cheaper mower. Personally, if you're going to use a rotary mower, get the best you can afford for your needs. It'll save you in the long run. Whatever mower you decide to get, make sure you get a "stump-jumper" with it, and guards for the rear of the deck. Just my opinion.
