I did not expect the ZT to be slower down and back. I get that typically you aren’t mowing that tall of grass with a ZT, but the bush hog did a nice smooth job. In the end though it demonstrates they are meant for different application. Nice video!

Very entertaining and informative video. Good to see you both 😊

Always wondered which was better. Thanks for putting this together. I'll stick with my hog. Glad I subscribed

Very cool video. If we didn’t have so many hills I would use the brush hog / cab tractor more often. Can’t beat the speed of the zero turn on the hills though!

good informative video thanks

Just got our brush mower. 😊

The ZT will be great along the fence lines. Especially for those with a loader on their tractor.

4:20 left over stems are 100% dull blades. Try this test over with new blades. I cut 12 acres with a Ventrac. I never see stems when my blades are new.

Would love to have seen a flail mower involved in that test

That kind of grass is hard to cut with a zero turn. Our neighbor's have a hay pasture full of that stuff and it's in our yard about as much as it us in their pasture lol. To cut our place which is around 4 acres for the yard part I have to keep the blades sharp on the zero turn and mow it no lower than a 3. If I don't it will leave stems all over the yard and it looks like crap. We have a lot of bermuda also so, when it cut it looks really great. I'm spraying our yard next year in the spring and again at the end of summer. Maybe a couple yrs of spraying will help get rid of that, bahaia. It's ok for the pasture but not on a yard.

Personally I'd want to use the Zero-Turn to mow even if I had to mow more often to maintain a cleaner cut.

Hi Neighbor I get the same results with my bush hog and zero turn

Not sure if your tractor can accept one, but have you considered a bottom deck for your tractor? Also what about a sickle

Maybe try a flail mower?

19hp seems kinda low for a Zero Turn. I have two that are 28 and 30 hp. I would like to get a hog.

The grass is too high it hits the mower and bends over in the blades go right over the top of it

The brush hog has an open front! Open the front of the zero turn

So the purpose of the two mowers is different. The ruff or rotary mower is not ment for a finish mow. They are used to maintain areas that are allowed to grow for extended periods of time for what ever reason. The labors is ment to maintain a lawn which to maintain properly should be mowed ever 1.5-2” of growth max. Will it cut 2ft grass yes but if it’s not a good quality high end machine your going to destroy the mower

I don't u derstand why people get on a zeroturn and think well shit if it can't mow as fast as it can go then I need something else. Like slow down a bit and it'll cut just about anything it'll take more time yea of course but even a brush hog will take more time to cut shit really really thick unless you have enough money to throw horsepower for days at them lol also there are pulleys you can buy to change the speed on your mower deck to make the blades turn faster so if you notice the zero turn was leaving a bunch of grass up tall well two way to stop that are slow down that's the easiest and probably the best way for most people my way is to change the drive pulley to a larger one to make it spin the blades faster you could also make the deck pulleys smaller but either way you'll have to find a belt to fit the deck since the new one will no longer fit.... But seriously just slow down a bit.... If it'll take 4 hours to mow by mowing it twice then it'll take that same time going a few mph slower to only cut it once. But now I'ma finish watching the video

My BadBoy zero is not good for taller stuff

In a world full of used commercial zero turns with 60" and 72" decks with 35+hp engines for less than $6k... and people still pay more than twice as much "for a warranty" 🤦‍♂️ All that money would waaaaay more than cover maintenance on a used eXmark X-series, or SCAG Cheetah/Turf Tiger... with much better performance, and far greater longevity.

That's ridiculous for 20 acres. Get a new or used 18 ft bat wing finish mower to go behind your tractor. I have same size JD as long as it doesnt get real tall it handles it no problem Unless you like spending all you time cutting grass. I do 6 or 7 acres and trim with 54" cub in 2 hrs.
