Thanks, I have no experience with any kind of 3pt hitch mounted mower. The biggest mower I've used is an Ariens riding mower with two blades, maybe 42" wide?
I have an Angus farm on the other side of me which also borders the back. When I look at them I see the beef chart pic for the different cuts. They sell by the cow and per pound. All grass fed too.
That's a fair point, this is a wet area with lots of thick grasses/shrubs.
Heh, around here I wouldn't buy a used unit. Those have all been rode hard and put up wet, if you can even find one for sale. I would buy a used hay mower (drum, sickle, etc.) but I think it would get wrecked on what I'm working on this fall.
Wheel seal for a brush hog 307 is a bit different. It drives onto the axle and the grease seal rides on the wheel hub. I'll have to see if I have pictures of it somewhere. Works the same either way.
There is a few patches around not much, usually around mid July is when the wheat is ready around here. My buddy tries to put in about 40-50 acres of oats to combine & sell but most folks that put in oats mow them off for hay. There is probably more rye than wheat, folks are using it for cover crop. A couple combine the rye, some chop it but most just nuke it plant into it. My buddy usually tries to graze his down then disc it & put beans in.
