I had one of those rear mowers for the JDeere for a while. Got it to
mow down overgrown grass and weeds to create a new horse turnout. It
was a pain though because I couldn't get it in tight spaces (like the
corners of the fencing). I took the rear wheel off it to make it more
maneuverable but all that did was make it scalp the grass when on
uneven ground. Finally bought one of these that did a super job:

That Skag is a brute!
Mine is a finishing mower and not a bush hog. And I do the main of the yard with it and the tight stuff gets the push mower..
