I just found you and subbed up , I work for the school system , and am out of work going on the 3rd week , hopefully going back April 14th ?? Great info , and I ordered a set of Gator blades , and I too will be side discharging . Be Blessed from Georgia !!!!!

What a great video!! Thank you so much for your help.

Good advice, thanks. I have Gator blades on my push mowers, I like to mulch instead of bagging the grass.

Really enjoyed your video, very helpful and informative information. I really appreciate the insight on the weight of the blades and the consideration for using them on lighter duty equipment. I am very encouraged to hear you give glory to God at the end of your video. Blessings!

Speaking of toughness,...I just started running the G6 blades. Last week I was mowing a biweekly property with my 60” 35hp BigDog Diablo MP. Had to stop because I ran over, and bent a 2’ piece of rebar that someone had thrown out there. Didn’t tear nothing up at all. The strength of these blades is a true testament to how tough they really are. If you saw the blade that hit it, you’d have to convince yourself that it actually hit something like that.

Good info, I was looking at the Blades. Think I'll be Happy !

Hunted all over for info on mulching blades. Stopped here. No need to go further. Best blade info on the net. Good job.

Thanks for the feedback. I was wondering about the Gator Blades, whether Oregon made a good product and if they were worth the money. You made up my mind. Making the change for next spring.

I run Reaper high lift blades on my commercial Toro 60 inch zero turn mower. They're 0.250 inch thick (quarter inch thick). Beefy as hell and cut amazing.

Very good. Keep up the good work. Amen.

Great video . I do aswell love those gator blades . I have a few brand new ones . But i love the thickness of them . I hear ya on a bigger shop , mine is 27w x22d and im finging myself needing more space . Im getting busier as the days go . So i feel ya on that . Thanks for sharing (#smallenginenation)

I got an 04’ dyt400 with upgraded engine (28hp) and G6’s pull that engine down a touch on startup as well, but it mulch’s like nobody’s business. My yard looks like a golf course every time. But if I get in super tall/wet grass, it will burn the belt off before that engine quits.

I put one on my push mower. It creates so much turbulence theres a cloud of grass clippings and dirt surrounding my mower as i push it through the lawn. One small mowing and the mower was covered in clippings dirt.

Gators on a 21 horse 60” mower work wonders. I personally use them on my work mower (has a mulch kit) with our fescue lawns and they seem to cut better than the same mower with the factory mulch blades (blade with the hump in the middle). Idk if it’s bc of the mass of the blade or because of the “high lift” picking up the grass better but I love them. Planning on also trying them with leaf cleanups this year to see what they’re like.

Excellent information. Gator blades probably are the best. However to save my machine I would rather bend the blade and replace it than hurt the spindles or crank. Thanks for showing us the difference.

Would these work on a 72 inch zero turn with a mulching kit? Or is it better to discharge?

Rogers lawn mower repair people started bringing things in at the first of March .

Good information mate. Hope your good

I have a new JD zero turn Z930R with standard factory installed high lift blades. What blade would you recommend that will provide smaller clippings while still side discharging? I do not have a mulch baffle kit. I'm willing to pay a premium price to get the best blade for my residential yard. Is there a blade in the market that will provide this, but still provide nice looking stripes? Thank you!

Great info 🙂... what do you recommend for my craftsman Briggs and Stratton 22” ?, I am looking to start mulching because and stop bagging also I don’t want to side shot, I tried this week with factory blade and it looks fine so far , I been looking at max power blades regular and mulching blades and gator .. What are your thoughts ? Thanks

I rub a Bad Bos zero turn moser witha42 inch deck. How much are those blades?

I have a Grasshopper mower with a 61 inch deck. I side discharge all spring and summer and then put my bagger on to mulch and haul the leaves in the fall. Will these Gator blades work for the side discharge and the vacuum bagger? Thank you Sir. Tom

I just got the cub cadet xt1 50 for my yard. Are these blades good or do you recommend any other.

Would it do good on a riding craftsman to cut down small stumps 1 inch lower to the ground.

Just installed 3 Gator blades on my 2yr old ExMark 52" & the engine bogs down & dies when I engage the PTO. Could be the battery. It needs to be jumped off to start it & when I remove the jumper? The engine dies, without the PTO engaged

Will they work with time master mower since it belt driven

Would you recommend the gator on my JD X320 with 48 inch deck engine is 22 hp thanks

The biggest thing I found running these blades is it takes more horsepower to turn them.

Thanks for the video. Can you run G5 mulch blades on a side discharge mower? Will I be loosing the value of the blades if I'm not using a mulch kit?

just got one of the g5s for the mtd junk mowers. it has to be better than the blade hd sold me last year...

Hhow about a 42 inch Badboy zero turn mowers?

Do anybody make a gator blade for a bad boy zero turn mower?? It's a 42 inch mower deck under it

Gosh, for me the lip sync is so far off! Just thought I'd mention it - I don't know if it's happening for others.

What size is your shop?

Hey C&L just out of curiosity have you seen the Kavli blades Something 2Look at has done a review on them. Those blades you are talking about don't compare sorry to say.

Gator blades are not good for overgrown grass up to anywhere from 3 ft tall to 5 ft tall I use them on a 32-in walk behind Scag and the Gator blades hold the grass up under the more a little too long when the grass comes out comes out in big long clumps and it doesn't fan out like it should
