Reel mower sharpening Baton Rouge area

I had a thread similar the other day. Someone was saying they sent theirs off somewhere. I have the push type so figured I would do it myself. On a side note after using the reel mower on my Bermuda for about a month I could not cut it with the reel mower. It was too thick and healthy. I scalped it with my regular mower and it seemed to help. Hopefully it will recover. I guess I will be searching for a used gas powered reel mower.

I just started using a reel mower and can see this becoming an issue eventually. It isn't too bad right now because I had to scalp down from my zrt height but this bermuda should become ridiculously thick in the next month.

I love the way it cuts though. Much better than my ztr or push mower. It is a nice little workout but I don't mind it with earphones in and going barefoot.

I'll post one in a week or 2. Mine still looks jacked up in spots from the drought and scalp but it is recovering very quick.

Ronk, please try again. I haven't seen your lawn in a few years. I remember you had quite the domination line

Beautiful lawn both front and back.
What is your HOC? and what do you cut with?

That color in the back is unreal!!

I'm kind of annoyed by mine with the blades being between the large wheels are the front. I'm left with a large strip of uncut grass around concrete and other obstacles. It also causes me to leave gaps between runs where I have cut.

You have to overlap more or double cut.
