Mowing with an A?

Posted by Ludwig on July 17, 2003 at 15:33:59 from (141.154.64.178):

Hey gang.

I mow alot of grass every year. The big fields
for now get an every third year treatment with
the Super M and bushhog, and the area
around my camp gets done with the lawn
tractor every trip.
That still leaves alot of intermediate areas,
stuff like the field road and a large area of
lawn that now gets mowed with the lawn
tractor but takes forever.
I'd like to find another way to mow these larger
areas faster, and I'm always looking for an
excuse for a new tractor.
A fellow near my farm has Farmall As that he
periodically restores and sells, sometimes he
even has a B. These little tractors are fairly
uncommon up there, but because they don't
have hydralics they're not as expensive as the
Super A.
So I was wondering if I could use an A with a
mower to cut my mowing time.
This isn't finish mowing, but it'd need to look
better than the bushhog on my Super M can
do, the big problem with the bushhog is that if
I set it as low as I want this grass to be its
really dragging the tractor down and working it
hard.
Note also that these spaces are generally too
small for the Super M to do a good job.

Seems like belly mower would be good but
I'm a bit worried because its fairly rough
terrain and I'm thinking it would take too much
of a beating...

Any advice?
