Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yep me too my yard is hilly and bumpy and rocky a swear this place grows rocks and roots overnight. I hit the all the time and bend blades. My deck will bottom out from the uneven ground if I mow too low etc etc. I actually put on a more aggressive tire on the rear last year they did better but still spin. I may try fluid and weights this year.

I have lots of obstacles in my yard also... Some inclines, cut off tree stumps, a flag stone lined creek, old fence poles cut off and just the right height to catch the blade if it's set too low...

I started marking the obstacles that have killed mowers in the past and cut some of the stumps lower.... One of these days I'm gonna get the cutting torch out and melt that old cut off fence post that killed one of my mowers... :mob:

I have a grave yard of broken lawn mowers with bent crank shafts and blades from hitting things... One of them I only had for two weeks before killing it... I average one broken mower per year with my yard... :BangHead:

Those make for good parts mowers for the one that I use...

I have had the same one for three years now and the drive tires tread is getting low... I can get the tires off the two week old one when they wear a little more...
