At the end of garden season will it hurt my bush hog to cut down corn stalks, it is not a brush cutter just a heave field cutter

No problem at all, might want to have sharp blades also.

I guess that the purpose of the purchase

I did that one year, hit a rock broke off one knife and stuck it in my back tire. That was the last time I tried that. Cost me a new tire.

I welded the knife back together, sharpened it and still using it today. That was back in the first part of the 80's.

If a bush hog can't cut a corn stalk it's not much of a bush hog. I use my zero turn...slowly...then ro-till my cover crop in.

I think the woods brothers made corn stalk
cutters after they got out of the army WW2.

This pic is my dad on a JDA in the mid 1950's
using a corn stalk chopper and a disk.

I think the difference between a chopper and
finish mower is choppers discharge from back and
sided. Finish mowers discharge from one side.

I found an old 6 ft woods chopper and made it
into a finish mower. The boss loves this mower
and the job it does on her yard. Before I
modified it, the grass clippings came out both
sided and the back.

Unlike a brush hog, brush cutter, this chopper
uses 3 two foot blades.
