That's some tough going for that mower. I'm glad it was up to it!

[@coleheigle]

Yes, that yard wasn’t the worst I’ve seen but it did great only 2 passes over the whole thing.

[@Boudreaux911]

That Bad Boy did a amazing job! What’s the type of grass that you cut in Mississippi? I live in South Louisiana and we have mostly St. Augustine. Thanks for sharing video 👍

[@coleheigle]

I live in central Mississippi and we have Centipede,St.Augustine, Bermuda,and Zoysia. Most of my yards are Centipede!

[@GilmansLawnMaintenance]

Thank you for the review hoping to pick up a revolt next week!

[@coleheigle]

I use that one every day and it has been doing great! Well made machine!

[@Deuce_Allan]

Did you pock it up yet?

[@bikerbeliever8169]

i may have to pick this one up in the future

[@JGS52]

Nice Mower!

[@curryisgoated8941]

Looks great

[@jacobhill4851]

I’ve thought about getting a stander. Getting tired of not being able to hold hills. Bad boy definitely has the best price on them so I might have to look into one. Great vid.

[@coleheigle]

I like mine!! I’ve owned 5 bad boys so far.

[@Walshslandscaping]

That's one thick lawn

[@coleheigle]

Just a one time mow! Wasn’t going to do it but figured it would make a decent video!

[@CleanCutPropertyMaintenanceLLC]

Looks Sharp, I am considered posting similar content as well to mix up my routes. The bad boy cuts clean, I have an 06 sit down I use as a main machine before my z3x 61. Nice One💪🏼

[@blackstonlawnservices9898]

Nice video, Cole! I run a solo lawn business in East Alabama, and am looking at the 48 Revolts. In fact, I'm demoing one as soon as they can deliver it to the local dealer. I'd love to hear more about it; pros and cons, etc. Thanks man! Jeff

[@coleheigle]

Sure thing I will do a 50 hour review on it soon!!

[@tjmanning4800]

Do you have the deck mounted striping kit on it? Stripes looking good. Been running a zt elite for a few years and it's time to trade in but was worttabout the deck mount kit not being as good as the rear mounted.

[@coleheigle]

@@tjmanning4800 commercial bad boys come with a rubber flap mounted on the back of the deck!

[@tjmanning4800]

@@coleheigle Appreciate the video showing they stripe. That machine still holding up? Wanting to switch to standup in the office season when those prices drop

[@coleheigle]

@@tjmanning4800 yes, I just did a 50 hour review on it on my channel! Check that video out bud! Pros, cons, mods I’ve done to it!

[@upscalelawncaremonroe408]

Knocking it down!!!!!!!!!

[@mheberling5939]

Looks good.

[@coleheigle]

Thank ya!

[@tarboatbassin3993]

That bad boy did a great job, since you do bigger properties like myself, can you explain your thought process going with a 48” instead of the 54 or 61” deck? I have a 48” exmark currently, but I’m seriously thinking about moving up to a 54 or 61” bad boy so I can get my yards done faster

[@coleheigle]

Yes I bought my 48 for mainly small to medium size properties. Mainly nice irrigated lawns because the stand on was lighter and wouldn’t mess up the turf. But I do own a 61 inch also for all bigger properties and it does cut down on time mowing for sure.

[@yardmasterslawncare9414]

Love the video -new sub!

[@robertframe7310]

It does a great job I want one I'm a new subscriber

[@mheberling5939]

I'm choosing between a BB Revolt and a Scag stand on. Not happy with the quote of BB for a discount for the non profit, but we shall see when compared to to the Scag.

[@coleheigle]

Scag and bad boy are both great mowers!

[@robertroth1042]

That’s brutal on your mower. I hope you charged a good price for that.

[@freshlycutlawnservice]

every one has there way of charging .. How I do over grown yards is ... its one price for a normal cut but if its a foot high its a double cut so I charge twice , for every foot I charge twice in your case that's 4x .. I love single cut jobs , Every single cut job I was called to do they turned into a regular customers! lol ... But dam man I'm liking that Mower lays down some decent stripes !

[@coleheigle]

Yes, I charge regular (not overgrown) yards by square footage and overgrown yards I charge it by the hour!

[@patrickbailey9994]

nice stripes....do you use a striper kit?

[@coleheigle]

@@patrickbailey9994 no sir there is a rubber flap mounted on the back of the deck. Comes from the factory like that

[@prostreetgsxr]

Not only overgrown but that look like a pretty good size lot. If it’s not personal, I’m curious what that job paid?

[@coleheigle]

During that time it was $175

[@prostreetgsxr]

@@coleheigle thank you I appreciate the reply! By the way, I have always loved cutting tall grass so your video was satisfying.

[@coleheigle]

@@prostreetgsxr me too but I just don’t do it for free🤣 I actually cut a overgrown one this morning!

[@prostreetgsxr]

@@coleheigle I know that’s right! 😂

[@davidtravis1367]

Wow that stripe really nice do you have a mat behind the deck?

[@coleheigle]

Yes, all commercial bad boy mowers come with a rubber flap mounted to the deck. In my sharpening blade video you can see what I’m talking about!

[@davidtravis1367]

@@coleheigle so the stand on mower has a mat behind the deck from the factory? And thinking about buying one and putting a checkmate lawn roller behind it too

[@coleheigle]

@@davidtravis1367 yes the 2023 bad boy revolt has a rubber mat mounted to the back of the deck for striping. I’ve never had to use the rollers behind it because in my area we cut bermuda, st Augustine, centipede, and zoysia are the main grass types. Everything I cut is at 3 inches and below.

[@davidtravis1367]

@@coleheigle I am in west Tennessee and we have fescue -Bermuda - zoysia and clover and bunch of others

[@stuarttyler3209]

Does anybody have experience with these mowing cutting Bahia?

[@Yogiraj1969]

Just out of curiosity why didn't you use the Bad Boy to mow the banks? It looks like it should be able to handle it without much slippage. But it is hard to judge the angle from video.

[@coleheigle]

The angle was steep but it could have done it. I just didn’t want to because of rocks and wash outs close to the road and didn’t want to take the chance and mess something up

[@coleheigle]

When in doubt trim it out🤣

[@christophercamp1149]

how was it on a hill, my house has a hill.

[@coleheigle]

I trust it on hills more the my sit down zero turn. Just because engine is in the middle of the mower and you can jump off if something goes wrong

[@Chef-James]

Why all the string trimming? Badboy can't handle that little slope?

[@coleheigle]

It’s a lot steeper in person! Plus than area beside the road had a bunch of washouts and it’s safer to trim it rather than mow it!

[@dannywalker1635]

That was pretty much a bush hog job. I don't think I would use my brand new Bad Boy on that mess. That house looks abandoned.

[@rodneyjones7969]

Dude these bad boy mowers are basically a bush hog I have ran the hell out of mine for two years love it

[@raptor1106]

Why do you use a standup instead of sit down mower?

[@coleheigle]

One this it’s more safe for an employee to ride on it rather then a sit down! But we also run a Rebel which is a sit down zero turn
