3pt snowblowers

Depends on which way the wind is blowing.
Really, it wouldn't make any difference.

Regardless of front or back mount, the wind always blows in the direction from the blower to the operator. Always.

That's right it's like a campfire, no matter where you stand the smoke comes at you. If you move, it moves!

My snowblower does a feed auger and is only set up in reverse hitching. I have never gotten stuck by driving over the snow and we do get our share of big storms. It took me 2.5 hours to go through 6" of wet snow with 22" of powder on top. It was slow going but my tractor has never failed me yet. L2800, with hydrostatic, heated cab. I leave my front bucket on for sanding, I dont have any snowbanks to push back because the snowblower gets it over the ditch and into the woods.

Especially where I'm at..........The wind comes from 16 different directions, all at the same time:confused2:

I wish I could try out a rear blower but there's really now practical way for me to do it. It's not like most rear attachments. You pull them forward to work for the most part whether it's a bush hog, tiller, middle buster, etc. The blower works going backwards all the time and you have to watch the side of the road or in my case you'll go into the culvert.

I would think HST would be easier going in reverse. You set the cruse and you don't need a foot on the pedal. On my tractor with the auto type cruse you can sit there and change the speed with the push of a button. You can even set the maximum speed point when the pedal is depressed fully.
