Z turn all the way. It's faster, much more fun to do, but if you do anything other than mowing, a lawn tractor is better. But for mowing? Z turn. :thumbsup:

Lawn tractor. I mow, haul and plow with it.

Plus the yards around here are too small for a Z-Turn.

There have been a few older threads about this ... Mowing is Almost Always Faster & Easier with a Z.
I run a 72" finish mower or front mount flail mower during the spring through fall and a Large snow blower during winter on my ZTR... BTW a Z makes any job Faster & Easier... even blowing snow. :smile:KennyV

I run a Excel Hustler snow blower on my Industrial grade Z... You may not find many attachments for JohnDeere Z's...
I also have a heated cab, I could not think of blowing snow without a cab.
This JD looks similar, but a bit smaller, It may be the only JD snow blower option... :

If We get a decent snow tonight, I'll post a few pictures... :smile:KennyV
