I'm seeking input: I have @ 300 acres of farm land, rural Alton Il area, that is hilly but also has @ 1/2 mile of creek running through it. We have a 15' bat wing Bush Hog mower that I pull behind a TL100A New Holland tractor (100 hp) with front wheel assist and a cab. There is liquid in the rear tires, but no weights. That mower does a great job, but, there are several areas on this farm where the banks are steep along the field roads, the creek banks, along fences of pasture etc. I am entertaining getting a Bush Hog Boom Mower for use on the above mentioned tractor. They make a unit, model RMB1660-1 that says it is 3 point hitch, has it's own counterweight system, and it's own hydraulic system powered by a PTO at 540 rpm. There is a cable controller that goes to the cab which it says is easily disconnected when removing the mower. I'm interested in hearing if anyone has one of these or something similar, what are the pros and cons etc. These things are very pricey, so want to be sure I'm not headed in a wrong direction. Thanks in advance.
