Congrats on the Rhinohide acquisition! That’s exciting! I was planning on getting one of those when I get my 1025, so now I’m glad I’ll get to help support you/your family when I do!

[@reno4819]

A slip clutch also requires maintenance each year to insure it hasn't locked up.

[@kylerayk]

Love the video! I concur with you Courtney. I prefer the shear bolt as I'm mowing the same plot of ground for the past 35 years. I know where every hidden hazard is located and I make it a point to correct and eliminate them as I go along. To me the slip clutch is way too much maintenance...loosen, slip, polish and retorque every spring...no thanks. Big Congratulations on the Rhino Hide purchase!!!!

[@anthonyadams693]

Thanks for such a thorough review, I bought my RC104 based on this review, the pivot point and the 100 lbs lighter weight was the main selling point plus it was a $100 bucks cheaper than any I found. It also is a better built and looking mower. I have hilly property to mow and the pivot point is put to good use. It works great on my Kioti CK20s. Thanks Dirt Dog for this mower and you for the review.

[@diamondharp]

Wish I had seen this before I bought my tractor that came with a cheap rotary mower. I would have realized what I was getting and could have easily upgraded. Very useful information! Thank you! I really enjoy your videos!

[@mr.redneck2715]

I took my slip clutch off and put on a shear bolt brush bull. Now I can easily take off the pto shaft and put it in the shed when I’m not using it. With the slip clutch you never know what it’s going to do after its been sitting a couple weeks!

[@JCWren]

Congratulations on the Rhinohide purchase!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Thanks!

[@YMF1891]

I like the grey color of the rotary cutter, looks nice.

[@justanotherviewer52]

I'm used to a brush hog with two full sized wings (horsepower was not a concern as I sat in air conditioned comfort). For the smaller ones like this, I would opt for shear bolts and chains if the budget is there. Always remember the turn radius changes significantly with this connected. Watch for digging into the ground. Based on the information you have provided, the Dirt Dog seems like a winner to me.

[@szki272]

You missed a very important part the underside it is what does the cutting. Also, the frontiers floating mechanism allows the A-frame to fold down for a more compact storage if you have verticle storage.

[@randalmiddleton8068]

Great move with Rhinohide... IMO that's a must have! Cooler in the summer, keeps off most of the rain, and has saved my butt more than once in the woods.

[@BillTheTractorMan]

Frontier cutters are not made by John Deere, that is the biggest misconception out there. The Frontier cutters are made by Woods MFG under contract for Deere. On another note, I went with a WALCO cutter, less expensive but still a great cutter for 1inch material. The WALCO cutters are built in Canada.

[@BillTheTractorMan]

@@whiteoakfarmsc2604 absolutely, I spent a year trying to buy a good used one, nearly impossible because they we all so beat to death. I bit the bullet and ordered a brand new unit from my local New Holland dealer. been very happy with my WALCO.

[@brianhillis3701]

Your summary left out the chain advantage and slip clutch upgrades for the frontier and the added flexibility for the dirt dog. The flexibility is a real selling point for maintaining hilly property road and ditch banks and dams and ponds. Have fun with your new purchase. Huge market for zero turns if it can be left on at highway speeds or easily removed/reinstalled and stored for transit.

[@martineastburn3679]

I've changed my opinion on the manuals in a tube on the brush hog - Mine is somewhere in the forest. Back in to mow under the overhang or up to trees. Must have been ripped off and now lost.

[@kdegraa]

Good video. In Australia these mowers are called slashers and slashing is a verb used to describe mowing grass on a farm, even if a slasher isn’t being used. Recently I was in the market for a mower deck for my tractor. We bought a finish mower for a few reasons over a slasher. This decision is very unusual where my farm is but I think it’s the right one, hopefully.

[@dstafford2200]

Love the design and durability of the dirt dog. It seems way better than your run of the mill brush cutters

[@bladewiper]

Do they come with "stump jumpers" ? I like the gray, a nice neutral color.

[@kylerayk]

Gray goes with everything!

[@aaronstetter5004]

I love the domed deck on my King Kutter Pro series. It looks like Dirt Dog has a great product.

[@roycebraman4311]

Used the JD several times, it is an excellent tool, would be interested in trying the Dirt Dog version to compare. Are they available for a rental to try one?

[@The1025RChannel]

Bush Hog, the Kleenex of the tractor world.

[@grazingoaksranch2506]

We have a Dirt dog on the Kubota, it works great. Highly recommended. Great vid as usual. Congrats on the new acquisition.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Thanks for watchin :)

[@stevegraves2968]

Great comparison of two nice units.

[@anthonyadams693]

Seems like you guys have all bases covered, the spec sheet on the 4' cutter does quote 10 gauge deck thickness not 12. but anyway I will be buying one. Nice to know Commmerce Ga is 50 miles aways from me. Home bult.

[@markpontes4457]

WOULD lime to see Underneath the 2 units!

[@ranger6x660]

I love my MX5 brush hog. It works very well on my 33R.

[@travissullivan5245]

Well done video sir. What about 2 bladed vs 3 bladed, like Mk Martin’s Pulsar plus?

[@lopin890]

Thanks Cort for another informative video... my tractor came with a brush hog, but I'd be purchasing a DirtDog if it didn't!!! Congrats to you and your brother on RhinoHide acquisition!!

[@JohnSmith-dj5gf]

Always get chains on a rotary cutter. If you back into a low cut stump concealed in the grass with a metal band on rear of the mower, it’ll bend in and hit the blades. Then you’ll be cutting and welding and replacing the metal band with chains. Been there done that.

[@kylerayk]

Roger that on the fragility of the metal band. I actually prefer an open rear discharge. I can back into a small tree, fold it over slightly and then the blade tip snips it off.

[@halsnyder296]

Everytime I mow the tractor tires pop up more rocks… I’ve hit rocks in areas I’ve mowed 40+ times. I consider brush hogs sacrificial. I need a solution to pick up 4”-12” rocks. Our ground is so rocky it’s hard to dig a hole with a backhoe, virtually impossible with a shovel (unless you’re really into exercising with a rock bar!) suggestions welcome! I use a clutch for the brush hog

[@MattN03]

Good info Courtney. Could you do a cutting quality comparison on these two models? Maybe show cut quality with lower grass and then another comparison on higher grass?

[@Zanderthelab]

Congratulations!!!!🎉🍾🎈🎊 having you own the canopy company is going to help with making improvements among many other things.

[@thegreenerthemeaner]

I had a 6ft Howse with a stump jumper and 100 hp gearbox and slip clutch. The deck was flimsy, so I made an 8ft out of it. Totally fabbed a new deck and put the 3 point, tail wheel and gear box plus the right size blades on it. I used 7ga for top and sides and AR400 angle bolted to the bottom of the sides for skids. I made my own chain guard out of Grade 70 3/8ths chain. I powder coated the deck before final assembly. Total cost was about half of a new 8ft unit. That was 15 years ago. It is still running, though I don't own it anymore.

[@1989Falkor]

My OCD would force me to buy a green one. Ill get one from you after forks and quick hitch.

[@andrewslagle1974]

What about the blades and blade carrier .Do they have stump jumper blade carriers?You should have shown the underside of the units !

[@omuggsy]

Rhinohide looks solid. Looking forward to purchasing.

[@americannomad513]

I'm interested in hearing more about the Rhinohide purchase. Wasn't there a drawing a while back?

[@earlyriser8998]

good and fair discussion.

[@MrMzr-er7kb]

Solid/rubber discharge guards tear/dent while chains don't. Replacing the solid/rubber guard after it has been damaged will cost more than the chain upgrade.

[@kipcudd7253]

Weight? Frontier gear box plus slip clutch will add the extra weight plus the chains. Price?

[@stevemoss1221]

congrats on rhino hyde .Did i heere there is new hardware kit available for the newer 1025 rops bar ,if so how do i aquire one?

[@waynederby4684]

Excellent presentation Courtney. How does Dirt Dog compare to Land Pride? That is what I currently own but will be looking for a 72" soon.

[@carrollsanders9376]

I have Run a Frontier for 10 years it has needed some repairs, but has run fairly good, but we are going to a Black Sheep mower, but might look, at Dirt dog for the small tractor.

[@fynnblack8027]

Great video

[@scottpulver4920]

Will a flail go up to 6” cut height? KSP

[@abstractdragon5453]

As always, your advise is great!

[@belindakt]

Congratulations on the business purchase guys!

[@sgtaaronp]

I WILL be ordering a rhinohide from my michigan brother's! Congratulations guys!!!!

[@charlieronk7909]

Off topic, but respect your opinion. Is there a big noticeable difference in the horse power of a 3025E and a 3032e?? I need more power and can get a used 3032, but I’m afraid it’s still not enough

[@matthewtaylor2185]

You may be mowing over that same ground for a long time but you don't know where that mole decided to make a dirt mound. That said I have a Tarter factory 2nd (it is a frontier 2072 with a coat of yellow paint and very low price). Shear bolt model. I just keep it high. It builds better soil that way anyway.

[@expatconn7242]

Flail mowers for. Simplicity 9020 ?

[@Fieldt01]

Did I miss the cutting height comparison? My CRP contract requires a 12" cut.

[@chief1193]

That’s why I bought a Yanmar Tractor. 10 yrs, no other brand is close to that. You should do a review of Yanmar.

[@kennethboyer2338]

As for the chain guard, someone with some fabrication experience can make one.

[@donaldpyles2891]

Courtney, I am just north of you in GR, do you have the quick connect PTO couplers in stock. I have a 35/28HP Kubota.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Seems like it to us, too. But everyone sees things their own way.

[@nrosario]

You should try Everything Attachments products.

[@jimschmitz6192]

Your field is fairly level but if you are cutting an area with uneven terrain there are certain circumstances such as a ditch, where you can get the rear wheel of the cutter stuck on one side of the ditch and actually have the rear wheels of the tractor lift off the ground. I prefer a pull type cutter. The down side of a pull type is you are going to need rear hydraulics and you’ll have to purchase an expensive hydraulic cylinder. This will probably only apply to larger farm tractors not subcompacts. Just be aware of this when crossing ditches.

Hopefully the metal used in the dirt dog is better quality than the frontier brush hog, it’s absolute garbage. Only positive I can say about my frontier brush cutter is the Chinese gear box with the slip clutch can take a beating unlike the deck.

[@jefferykeeper9034]

Dirt dog for me !!!

One hog is 48” , rubber gaurds, and shear pin ; the other is 72” chain guards, and slip clutch. Both look like they’ve been attacked by a maniac with a sledgehammer
