Yeah, 60" deck, I have been beating my zero turn to death keeping up with mowing five acres, spring time it's two/three times a week.
You have a good eye, turf savers. Had a skid steer in here last fall, really tears up the grass.
Burned off that stuff last night. Oak burns forever, still flames at 3:30am this morning.
Ashes this morning. Left off one of the large roots or i would have been out there all night.
Started shoveling the left-overs into the cart, then thought, a couple of scoops with the bucket dumped onto the burn pile and I'm done.
Going to help digging out those roots too, getting the spikes that attach to the front of the bucket. Going to seem like old times at Toddy Clements poultry farm when at 14 I was using his Ford N tractor doing the same thing.
I should complain. Jason probably plows five acres in a morning.

You should pull with a chain not a strap, no snap back with chain. Snap back very dangerous. Nice Ponderosa, I thought mowing once a week was bad.

Thought of that, and that strap is old, and if you looks closely, it has a couple of kinks. But that involved little to no effort, in fact i just removed some sections by hand. I do have a major league chain, but that sucker is heavy!
