I am starting a business doing finish mowing, overseeding, bush hogging, and aerating. I am going to be using a JD 790 tractor and am looking for a good 5 or 6 foot high quality finish mower. Does anyone have any experience with a commercial grade finish mower as far as brands and model #'s. I want to buy a good unit the first time. Thanks in advance.

Belly mower no wider than your rear tires will allow you to get in much closer than a finishing mower off the back. I use NH 33hp Boomer 60in belly mower + 60in Acre-Ease wing mower off the left side for a 10ft cut. The wing is nice,you can get in under branches without getting wacked in the face,spin it 360' around trees and then pull one pin and drop it off to do the narrower stuff.I mow 5-6mph(flat out in 2nd-hydro)most the time.Wing cuts prettier than belly cause the tractor frt wheels aren't running over the grasss first(like those ZRT moowers with front decks). Acre ease came out tops on my search for a wing. Recommend their commercial model with heavier guage deck-you will slam it into a tree now and then. ....
