Well, the cord thing sure forces you to be organized. (LOL) Now, as for a method of mowing, I also drag the mower behind me and follow the cut line. I could not walk a straight line if my life depended on it. (LOL) I also took the easy way out and bought my wife a nice rider but we moved into a mobile home with a fairly small yard and there is no justification for the rider so I traded it off for some work on my deck and other things. Cy, the Ancient okie...

Most if not all mowers now have a bar that shutts off the moter when you let go. I think if I had to drag that corde around I would soon want to hang myself with it. On a more cerious note. any interesting tips on orientation when mowing. What I did before we had an acher and a half to mow and I got my wife a rider to cut the grass was to walk with the mower behind me and follow the cut line. safety practice says this is not a good idea but I am very mindful of what I am doing and I am not walking streight backward hence risking pulling the darn thing up over the top of me. ------------------------ Yahoo!
