Chad,
Great looking stripes! Do I see a future management trainee in some of those shots? Now that the rains have come to central FL and the turf has greened up I'll have to post some pics of how my Grasshopper stripes. I've got the same type of tires on it and love them. Great for them "ditches"

They may not be as pronounced, but they are do-able ;) http://home.mpinet.net/horsepower/stripes/stripes2.jpg
BTW, this was cut by a 52" Grasshopper. The grass is mostly Floratam.

No, all Grasshopper doings. The 36 Exmark will leave 'em too, but hey it's a 36" ;) It doesn't always look like that though.
