Well, if it were me, I don't belive that I would buy a zero turn. I own two for my mowing business, and love them. The only down side is they are really only good for cutting grass, and even with a larger deck and engine, 5 acres will take a good bit of time to cut. I think that I would get a early to mid 90's Deere or other manufacturer's equivelent, about 35 to 40 horsepower with a belly mower. Having the finish mower sticking out behind you, it's hard to get into a lot more spots than you think. I know this from expirence. Also, I wouldn't buy a post hole digger for 5 acres worth of fence, unless you're gonna put in other fence for horses. Something else to sit around in the way and collect dust once you're done, but if you're set on one, just rent one for a weekend. Lot easier and cheaper. Whatever you choose, good luck and have fun.
