Well it's not Kubota but it's the right color. I picked up an Agri-Fab 44" lawn sweeper last week and it's amazing. No more raking for this guy. Does a great job of picking up any and all debris + lifting up the matted grass after the snowpack.

I can tow it with my BX or my zero turn and now I don't have to leave the seat to adjust or dump it. Pretty freakin awesome.

I like the mod for the sweeper :D

I gave one of those sweepers away a few years ago. Used it once at my house. Thankfully it was given to me so I wasn't out anything.

My issue was the amount of leaves that 30 oak trees put down in the front yard :eek: 20 ft and I had to dump the sweeper.

For me it's much more efficient to chop them up with some gator blades and then spread some limestone to counter act the acidity from all the acorns.

Thanks guys!

Yea Daren, I hear you. I was use to using a bagger on a mower and I had the same problem. Couple of passes and I had to dump it. With the sweeper I can do the entire front and backyard with just two dumps and those dumps are WAY easier and faster with this little thing so I'm a happy guy. :)
