They probably reccomend the 65 HP tractor because of the weight of the mower and the stability, turning corners etc. I have used several drum mowers and disc mowers and I currently own one of each, a 9' JF drum mower and a 10' 6'' Fort disc mower, the drum mowers work real good, are very simple and cheap to repair if something goes wrong but you have to be real careful on rough ground. The drums will hang in washes and dips and if you are moving along pretty good you can easily rip a drum off the mower, in fairly smooth ground you can run wide open without a worry. The only advantage I can think of for a disc mower over a drum mower is that the disc mower is built to slide over any terain with ease.
