Their old mower would destroy it when cut short. They got a new mower last year and always cut too short now in my opinion...The ‘kid’ doesn't live at home anymore, but still cuts it. So buzz it short and wait till its too high...
Cutting short is no good. My buddy gets on the mower and drops the deck. Then clumps and windrows of grass that i dont like. Thats why i do it all myself.
