wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Looking for a riding mower that has a bagging system. Only wanting one with the bagger and not interested without it. Unless of course its a crazy deal. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin5s Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 if you don't find one with a bagger, let me know... I have a craftsman that I'll make you a good deal on... no bagger though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Unfortunately I have so many leaves come fall that all I need a riding mower for is for the bagger. My yard isnt huge but 30+ leaf bags spread out over a month as they fall gets annoying. I borrowed my aunts last year for a week and it made very short work out of it. If I could do it once a year it wouldnt be so bad but when you have to do the whole yard each day,, lets just say I hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin5s Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 have you thought about just putting mulching blades on your mower? That's what I used to do at my parents house, I would just mow them... seemed to do the trick for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 There are way to many to mulch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 With 2.2 mowable acres and 20+ old trees (BIG) I use mulching blades also. Does the trick for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Small yard and 3 way, way overgrown trees just puts too many leaves in one area to mulch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck531 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Get a set of these for the mower (or riding mower). I've had these on my 42" riding mower for 10 years and they're freakin' awesome. http://www.everythingattachments.com/v/vspfiles/photos/BBM-GATOR-BLADES-2T.jpg I second the notion of putting the kids to work .

smokin5s Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I saw those blades on Amazon the other day and was wondering how good they would do. In the end I ended up ordering standard mulching blades, but good to know that they aren't crap blades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your grass is like a foot tall and it starts clumping, just go over it a few times and you can't even tell the grass is there. It chews it up into small pieces and you don't have brown grass all over the yard. I've been doing this for 10 years and my yard has never looked better. I've also never bagged in 12 years of living here either. That and we don't have any trees anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
