    Who's pushing with what plow and what are your likes and dislikes about your plow? I understand everyone probably has the best plow ever made on their truck. Just like we all have the mowers ever made on our trailers. However I'm trying to find out from the field what your honest opinions of...

    What is the procedure for striping a lawn

    There's always a million ways to skin a cat. We try to mow east to west directions. Sun playing off the grass will help pronounce the stripes. We don't use stripe kits, but run our baffles wide open mid or high lift blades and I'll get upset if i find a deck set below 4"s. All our decks are...

    best grass seed for southern indiana

    brad I operate just south of Indy in Shelby and Johnson county. if you want a good grass that's durable, will grow and is reasonably priced I'd buy Kentucky 31. I have it at my personal house here's a picture. 2 years ago there was barely any grass there and mostly weeds.

    ZTR or Tractor?

    its a little dark but hey gotta make that $ while I can. I've bought the clam shell grass catcher for the new ztr. I haven't even uncreated it yet but I would have charged that guy at least $700 to clear that mess.
