I use a 21 horse Sabre (JD) on my land. I have hills and ditches. I mow about 4 acres with lots of obstacles. I have also pulled father in laws 60" tow behind by Swisher. That makes over 110 inches of mowing ability! Follows contours well. I can go slower and mow faster. Easier on the machine. Follows contours well. I still have the garden tractor to pull carts and sleeve hitch attachments. I like Swisher pull behind mowers. They work well, seem well built, and they cost less. In fact, I bought a Swisher tow behind rough cut mower. It will chew up 1.5" saplings. If I can run it over with the 4-wheeler, I can mow it down. Often, I see decent 25 horse plus garden tractors for 2-3 thousand. The Swisher 60" tow behind is usually less than $1500. My 2 cents worth, but it's worked very well for me. I can mow all my acres in an afternoon, and my mowing is scattered about, not one flat chunk. Good luck.
