Welcome back to The Lawn Care Life in Mowssouri channel! We are Mowing Tall Grass on this Steep Hill with the VENTRAC 95" Wide Area Mower Deck! It's the first time I've put the WAM on a steep hill and man I'm impressed! Last year I tackled this job with the Tough Cut deck. This time the Wide Area Mower deck. What a difference!
Starting June 7, 2022 my friend Tony Rudolph over at "Tony's Lawn Care" on KZfaq and "Lawn Care Talk" podcast will be starting the "Lawn Care Brothers Unite - Podcast Challenge." Somebody is going to WIN something big when we unite at the Equip Expo. Who will it be? I don't know. But you can follow along and keep up with the challenge on these podcasts:

I did grounds care for a local school district for 35 years. The last mower I had was a John Deere F1145 front mower. 4WD 28 hp Yanmar. 72 inch front deck with mulch kit. I mowed a bank at our High School that was so steep you did not it on your butt while you climbed it. You were laying on your back. climbed it with the deck raised then as soon as the deck bumped the guard rail for the street that ran along the top of the bank, I lowered the deck and let it mow as I backed down. I had to mow it on Saturday because of cars parked in the parking lot. I actually stopped traffic because people wanted to watch. Even made the local paper. Forgot to mention it was equipped with Curtis hard cab. and even with turf tires that John Deere was just a wonderful snowplowing machine.

Hey Rick! Thanks for watching. I like the rear discharge. I don’t think one is better than the other really. I prefer not throwing grass out the side especially around roads, houses, buildings, cars, etc. It definitely reduces your chances of throwing a rock or stick into a window, etc. To answer your second question, the customers always contact me for their lawn care needs. We live in a small town so words get around pretty quick. Appreciate you watching. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Great video. The 95in deck looks impressive but do you think it was any faster than the tough cut? It looked like you had a foot or so of overlap. You should get mulching blades for it and see if that helps the windrowing. The grass does not have to be very long before it starts windrowing.

Thanks for this great video. I’m considering the 95” deck but was cautioned by some that it would only work on properly maintained yards having about 3-4 inches of growth. But your video disproves those theories with the deck cutting 3 FEET of grass, let alone 3 inches! Are you still using this 95” deck for cutting?
@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri
@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching the video! I will say that the 95 inch wide area mower will knock down some really tall grass. But if you want to look very manicured, I wouldn’t take off more than a couple of inches of growth. It just doesn’t do extremely well with weekly cutting. If you can get to it every four or five days, that would be best with this particular deck. I don’t have this deck any longer. I decided not to buy it. I was just trying it out at the time. Thanks again for watching!

@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri
@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri 2 жыл бұрын
I like it! For a perfect manicured look, you really need to stay on top of the mowing and cut a little higher. You can cut every 2 weeks with it, but it will windrow the grass just like a side discharge mowing every 2 weeks. It’s a little harder to disperse the clippings if you double cut, so if you’re looking for a perfect manicured finish then you would want to stay weekly only with the WAM.

For hills that are more steep, I’ll go up and down. But for this slope, it’s 10 times quicker to run the length of the hill. Hope that makes sense. Appreciate you taking the time to watch! I’ll be posting another video soon of running up and down a steeper slope.

That was a great answer. My zero turn handles my 0.25 roadway that looks just like that. It is on the edge and my pond has steeper areas that require up and down. And still other areas that I use a weed whacker. Would like something safer and more productive. Thanks, especially for the steeper stuff. ​@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri
