Pat-CT said: (quoted from post at 16:54:05 09/30/08) what mower would you guys prefer im looking for a 6 or 7 foot to mow the fields before they get plowed because the weeds are usually 3 feet tall and for just general mowing around the green house what are the pros and cons with either i have a 5 foot brush hog now and its just not cutting it( no pun intended )
The flail gives a smoother cut. It is a happy medium between a rotary cutter and a finishing mower. They do not like stumps, large limbs, and rocks. If the areas are clean with occasional debris the flail is king. Rotary cutters are good for rough cutting and debris areas.
I have a Mott (Alamo) 88" cut flail behind a F504 Diesel (50HP). It does a good job but in real heavy grass I could use 70+HP.
