I currently have a number of small tractors and I am looking for a cost effective way to mow 5 acres. I have an AC B, JD B, Farmall BN, Ford 8N, but what I use to cut my lawn is a reliable MTD 18hp 48" tractor. Iwant to get a bigger cut though 6 - 8 foot. Should I get some old reel mowers to put behind my tractors. Do reel mowers require alot of maintenance? Should I get a flail mower secondhand for the 3 pt 8N? How about a six foot 3pt rotary mower? How about an old golf course mower? What's a good price for any of this stuff? I currently use a tow behind brush hog to mow the larger fields. I hate cutting grass and would like to get a cheap faster way of doing things so I can do work that really needs to be done around the farm. Are there other people out there who hate mowing this much? Please comment and provide guidance. Grateful, Mark
