In the fall of 2020, I purchased a heavy duty EFGC125 Flail mower from Betstco. It did some serious trail blazing through our heavily brushed woods and worked flawlessly. The first mistake was not carefully walking all the proposed routes while looking for half buried rocks, scrap metal, etc. in this century old farmstead location. The flail worked perfect to find those few hidden & forbidden objects but the damage to the hammers was not noticeable in the trail cutting.
Fast forward to this year: I was anxious to see how the flail would work in the sweet corn patch because getting rid of the corn stalk residue is a tough job. Picking out a couple of rows, the Kubota plunged in and looking behind at the mulched residue revealed it being converted to a finely chopped up mess. WooHoo!
Fresh cut hay is quite the nice farm fresh smell but nothing compares to the sweet aroma of freshly minced “supersweet” sweet corn sileage! It makes you want to stop and have a “sit down all day” picnic out there. That is until the smell of burnt rubber gets added to the aroma! OH, OH!
