I have a gravely zero turn. While yes it's my main mower, they were not made for mowing hills, ditches, crick banks, etc. that's why I keep my cubs around. Better stability and traction for mowing hills.

Thats actually a brand I have never heard of. Locally (40 mi radius--most much closer) we can get Deere, Cadet, Gravely, Dixie Chopper, Snapper, Ferris, Dixon and Toro (I think), Bad Boy, maybe even Scag and I think Bobcat. Now that I list them, thats a LOT of different brands. What scares me on stuff like that is the lack of decades old dealership network for many of them. Oh yeah, forgot the granddaddy of ZTR--Grasshopper/Woods.
Hope the mower works out well. Is the directional lever the one on the right? Never seen that setup before. ![]()

Country Clipper is fairly popular around here. It may be a regional thing.
It has a joystick on the right for control and a cup holder on the left for "refreshments".

Thanks Allen.
I hope to try it out this weekend. The blades got sharpened last night so it's ready to mow.

Mowed with the zero turn yesterday and I must say I'm a fan. The joystick control took a little getting used to. I didn't time myself but I would guess it will cut my mowing time by 1/3-1/2. The poor Cubs are going to feel neglected on mowing days.
I did use the 129 to roll the lawn before I mowed so it wasn't a Cub free day after all.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
