With a little practice, it is pretty easy to do with a rear mounted mower. My wife"s grandfather did it all the time with a 2N Ford with a rear mounted Dearborn mower and my Dad also did it with his NF WD Allis and a rear mounted New Idea mower. That N.I. mower was a wonderful mower by the way. Many people will not believe this, but years ago, a local farmer had a D-17 Allis (WF) with a side-mounted mower and he could cut corners without stopping or leaving any hay standing. He would pull the power director in low, step on the brake and spin the steering wheel just at the right moment. He had lots of practice and of course the D-17 has P.S. which makes quick turns a breeze. I have a side mounted mower on my WD-45 WF) but with out the high/low power director or P.S., there"s no way I could ever do that!
