It was a much needed trade. We bought the IH to replace a 1586 we had wich was bought mainly to run the manure pump but we decided to bump the 4440 down a grade and step into something nicer.
No just use a 15' LandPride batwing. Love to trade that off for a 15' Shulte sometime soon.

Good pics. Is that IH a 50 or a 5288. Never a shortage of work to be done is there? Love to trade that off for a 15' Shulte sometime soon. The Schulte is defineatly a nice mower. We have a 15' and boy has it been worth the money.

We have a HX15 John Deere, and it has extra blades, so It does a really nice job!

Yeah this one is ok but its shot. Shultes will hold up like no other and honestly when you shell out 20K+ it needs to hold up. Dan, your New Holland dealer in Quincy bought a store over here by us, callin it Hannibal Tractor now. Went over to Quincy and bought a loader from Vic for it. Should be here first of this week.

I know your glad to see the new tractor arrive. I love getting something new for my hobby farm. Even something used is a welcome sight.
I saw those Shulte mowers at the NFS in KY. They look well built. But around here you don't get those. So we have to stick with other brands. I use a Bush Hog and never had issues with it. But I didn't get the cheap Squealer junk model either. It holds up for the money I paid for mine.

Don't buy a woods. My uncle has a brand new 20' woods batwing and he said the hitch is too short and you can't turn with it with duals. Nice pics Chris.
