It really is
I have an 11 year old son of a friend that likes mowing more than I. As long as I pay him.
I've got my 54" Hustler Raptor for sale if you guys know of anyone that might be interested in it. Just saying.
Be careful mowing around the pond edges. I've known of two individuals that were mowing along the edges, got a wheel in the mud that dragged the mower into the pond.
Unfortunately for one, he had removed the seat safety switch and got chopped up pretty bad. He wasn't found until the next day, deceased when it overturned.
Nice mower! Take care of it, should get you 20 years or more down the road.
I still prefer rear discharge, they seem to go through things more easily (not east) and will not sling items everywhere.
The older style Raptors were great little machines. We had one for five years, no issues.

I have heard that "It's not how fast you mow, but how well you mow fast." 
I appreciate the heads up. That's bad, sorry to hear that.
I don't mow fast, never have. I'm more into a good looking lawn, vs. how fast I can get the job done.I have heard that "It's not how fast you mow, but how well you mow fast."
My wife on the other hand, if that mower had wings, my wife would be flying instead of mowing!
My Hustler Raptor mower was given away this morning to one of the guys over here, so it's gone.
