What you find in long grass

It wound up tight as, and gave the clutch a good workout...

I KNOW that made for a 'fun day' I'm qualified to make that statement - BTDT :-(

A rotary cutter can find any lost or hidden object in a field. It just may not be in the best of shape after the encounter. I found a section of fence panel a while back with my cutter. A blacksmith could not have twisted that thing up like that. Took me an hour to cut it out.

Got into some bailing twine once. Took me years to get every strand out of the hub.

I "found" an aluminum baseball bat. Made No damage except to the bat which had a 2" cut in it. Whipped it out the back pretty good!!

For awhile my kids random toys went into the fields to parish. It's a toy graveyard.

Funny, I found multiple baseballs in a friend of mine's vacant lot he asked me to clear. Several pop fly's from the brush cutter!

Just about every time I brush cut the grass along the highway I hit a dead turkey. POOF!!! Feathers and stuff. The only thing recognizable is the balled up foot.

First cut on hay usually finds at least one Bambi...

Found old mattress spring.

Saw a couple of crews out cutting ditches today. Mostly what they found was mud.

I once ran over a large ratchet from a ratcheting strap in the grass along the highway. It shot out the back of my brush cutter and blew one of the gauge wheels into smithereens.

When I saw post from oz first thing I thought of was snakes or crocodiles. Years ago worked for company testing new round baler in Florida, baler started thumping real bad found had picked up a young alligator in the wind row and he was not happy….

Yikes!

When I tilled our garden plot with the new Troy Bilt tiller. MILES of ancient barbed wire.

I found a buried steel fence gate with a forestry mulcher. Sounded like a bomb went off and shrapnel went everywhere. Great attention getter, I'm glad nobody was around watching to play catcher with the metal bits.

I found some lawn worker maintenance trash, like broken mufflers, cords, cables etc. with my flail.
They must have figured out while "maintaining" my neighbors yard over the years that I did not go back into that corner.
Wow did that make some noise.
Luckily no damage from that.

Thought I had cleaned out that area the year before, but obviously didn't.
Now I walk the paths to make sure new "stuff" didn't show up.

One thing about first cut hay and deer, usually they will move (like rabbits) but infrequently, I'll run them through the disc mower and crimp rolls but there is never a carcass left when I come back to rake. I guess the Yotes like their 'dinner' pre prepared.....

Old barbed wire. Grrr. In the past the rule was, If you can’t burn or bury it then shove it into the edge of the woods.
