Rules for Bush Hogging (learned the hard way)

I figured this was going to be a does and donts thread, and it is, but now I have to clean my keyboard from the tears of laughing. Its amazing how some one can turn nightmares into laughter.

Great read and next time grandma comes over I will be sure to have my tractor up on blocks LOL.

Good yarn and should be compulsory for all newbys. Their mistakes can be hillarious in hindsight.

Took two rereads before I realized this was only semi-satirical Great post!

Good rules.

Guess another rule is to never bush hog around central Virginia area from July through about September in my normal non attire. Luckily, over the years, I've often been saved by a bear who thoughtfully dug out a big bed or yellow jacket larvae a day or so before I wanted to mow an area.

Ahh yes, the ole' rotary cutter, don't we all have many a story!! Out of all the implements I've ever used with a tractor, hands down the rotary cutter finds it's way into the worst predicaments!

Could not agree more. My hogging is over now until the first cold snap.
