Bounce around, my 2880 don't bounce around at all … Of course I don't mow at warp speed anyway.

Again I’m mowing rough farm ground.
Not a yard.

I agree with HD but I’ve always thought those tiny lil ol front air tires would be way too rough on the deck
& like you I don’t mow fast at all either.

I have a pair of control springs mounted to the rockshaft on either side (adjustable) that I presume are there to control the bounce. I don't have any that I can see.

What I have the bat wing for, rough ground.

I also batwing a 7-8acre field

My "lawn" is a long way from a smooth fancy lawn, it's rough, it's got wheel tracks from when the tractors go on when it's a bit soft. It has lots of weeds and such, the other day when I mowed at about a 1/3 to almost 1/2 pedal in low range
I was looking at all the different colors of wild violets and the wild strawberry blossoms as well as a bunch of dandelions and other low growing wild flowers.

Pointless to beat up the other mower then.

Took a few #’s on bank today after sliding off it numerous times mowing sideways with Zero.

Grass was dry but soil was damp.

Averaged 27-32* in most places.

40* + in short areas of gulleys where water washes down.

It’s spooky crossing it

grass had gotten over knee hi on part of it because it’s been too wet to get on it & rain on the way tonight so I man’d up & mowed it today with damp soil

I’m patiently waiting on my New F3710 4wd to be delivered …..

It never ceases to amaze me that pictures of slopes look so doable on a mower until the actual slope is measured. Those pictures look like they would be no problem on my zero turn, but my 28 degree slope is right on the edge of what I can mow under perfect conditions. I'm letting some of it grow wild this year, 'cause I just don't feel like putting the walk behind on it anymore.
