My old Swisher 66 trailmower is now dead. I had a good run with it, but it was fickle and I wasn't a big fan of all the repairs from things that shouldn't have broken (including the welds). Now I need a new trailmower for my orchard. I cut about 12 acres every other week with the trailmower attached to my JD2305 with a 60-inch mid-mount on the JD's belly. I'm not looking for a golf course manicure but I don't want a rough cut either. The tallest the grass gets between cuttings is usually 6 inches sometimes a little longer during wet periods. I was looking at the DR's but don't know anyone who has one. Or if anyone had one that they liked. I'm looking for one with it's own engine (not PTO driven). Any suggestions are much appreciated.
