The Flail Mower Wins For Versatility

The Flail Mower can do it all. From grass to cornstalks to small shrubs it shows its versatility. Some like the brush hog but I prefer the all around usefulness and safety of the flail mower. Not will it handle those but it will mulch the cuttings much better than a brush hog leading to faster breakdown in the overgrown pasture or garden.

Good video, thanks. I have the GC1723e and found your channel awhile ago because of your MF. I always like seeing others put them to use...it gives me ideas!

Flail mowers are excellent for fine cutting like athletic fields and it did a superb job for you. The down side is you are going to dull those blades really quick going through corn stalks, soil and the like. Having to turn the mower upsidedown and remove 100+ blades, nuts, washers and spacers by hand is a pain and then reinstall while bent over on a chair is a double pain. Better have pneumatic drivers and some time. The flail did a great job, but I can see going over it with a brush hog a couple extra times doing 80% of the flail and the brush hog has only two blades that will last ten times the flail's. Thanks for the video, don't mean to be critical, just informative.

Did you harvest any of the corn or sunflowers first?

[@LancoAmish]

Some of the corn for our use, some for the chickens and some just went on by. The sunflowers were for the bees and birds later.
