Mow it all down
The DR tow-behind brush and field mower is independently powered. Towed by an ATV or small tractor, it can clear 2 acres an hour. The mower has a 44-inch cutting width and can handle woody material up to 1 1/2 inches thick. Cut material won't clog the chute because of the mower's deep deck and open discharge chute. The mower has a large gas tank—enough for more than two hours of mowing. Price: $1,999 (13 hp) to $2,479 (17 hp) info: www.drpower.com
