Couldn't wait for a DR field and brush. Really didn't want to use my "good"
Wheelhorse (520H the last year before Toro took over) - but I don't have
decks on the heavy old Cub Cadets or Sears Suburbans so I gave it a go. I
was careful to avoid the heavy brush (1/2" and bigger) but the smaller ones
and brambles, etc got chewed up pretty good. I was thinking of Clark as the
3/4" pieces of broken branches went flying in a cloud of dust LOL. When I
get a chance I'll make a pass through with a tractor and chains and pull
some of the bigger stuff right out.

Actually Srgnt, my little Toro takes care of that kinda stuff too, even
with a dull blade, worst thing that happens is I jump a belt.
(In the middle of a poison ivy patch) yea my luck.

I have much higher hopes for the DYS 4500 with the "new" blades as I have
mowed over a Tiger Lilly with much success, (well it nearly threw me from my
seat but I didn't stall it)! :-)

I don't have a tractor yet, I throw the Jeep Grand Cherokee in Low 4wd and
take my foot off the brake :-)

Great minds ... I just pulled my Cherokee in the yard with landscape
trailer and JD 110 in tow. The Cherokee has been up the woods roads most
days this past couple weeks helping me build a 10 by 12 shed. That's why I
wanted to widen the road.
