    Let’s see if this works:




    Not much different than the one on Hardee’s website. Their video was filmed at Congaree Hunt Club and apparently some pigweed seed hitched a ride on the cutter from Congaree to my dove field. I’ve been fighting it since then.

    Silage cutters are very effective. Keep your alleys clean and have areas unplanted that you can keep cut. Silage cutter used and directed there. Works very well.

    I'd love to hear back if you try your flail mower on dove corn.

    I've used a flail mower in the past on dried corn, sunflowers, millet and sorghum. I felt like it worked great busting everything up and still providing a clean place for the birds to feed. Seed was scattered everywhere. The only time I did not get good results was when the crops were weedy and that residual trash caused too much debris. I ended up burning the strips to clean it up.

    that's good to hear. does your flail mower have the flat hammer blades, or the Y (grass) blades?

    Don't you remember I was the one that got us the ability to do it beginning October 1?
