I got the opportunity to try out Toro's new walk behind rotary mower the Prostripe 560 and wow what a beast! This thing is solid quiet and lays some awesome stripes with out the stress and fuss of a fiddly reel mower.
Special shout out to Arrowfield Horse stud for allowing me to film on their amazing farm the place is breathtaking.
Also thank you to Tristan and Ben from Scone Outdoors for arranging the demo mower through Toro Australia

First Ben and now you. Then I wander out to the shed and see the Hayter looking all forlorn. I think you blokes are trying to tell me something, I better get cracking 😉 Seems a good option for striping high cut turf, without the maintenance cost of cylinder and bed knife grinding. I wondered how defined the striping would be, looks good.

Hi Phil Ohh you have a Hayter? I have a feeling this things roots come from Hayter but not 💯 on that! I think its a really good option as you say for low maintenance stripes. It feels like it will last for years and years. I was very lucky to be able to try it esp out at Arrowfield stud

@@theaussielawn yes, Toro now own Hayter and the Prostripe is based off the Hayter Pro. The domestic Hayter line now have the choice of the same 60v drive system as the Toro Recycler you recently tested. Mine is an ‘87 Harrier 48, single speed drive. Doesn’t have a split roller, has a threaded rod for the height adjuster so is infinitely variable between 13-57mm hoc but will give you RSI turning the adjuster. Should be fun to use, once I get it cleaned up.

Awesome mower and vid. Does the rye blend well with Kikuyu? Thinking of overseeding next year but worried it will make the lawn look patchy esp in summer when the rye starts to struggle

Thanks mate 😎 Yeah kikuyu and rye go pretty well together esp when the kikuyu is left a little longer (the rye and kikuyu blend is pretty common around the horse industries, most race tracks also have the kik and rye blend.
