Well? I am just curious who keeps up with it..

Shoot, throw in other things like, how much pipe and wire you install a year if you specialize in irrigatior or how much block you lay a year if retaining walls is your thing.

Like I said, I am just curious who keeps up with these things.

Only fact I've got, Dads company installed 37miles of underground electric in their biggest year. This isnt including gas, telephone, and drainage tile. Which most jobs included.

you gotta be kidding me? No one keeps up with these kind of things? I know they have no real purpose, but you dont keep up with them out of curiousity?

Im estimating this year if you include each mowing around 3000 to 3500acres.

I think you will learn, soon, there exist so many things that are important that even
trying your hardest we can't keep up with them all, so I do my best not to worry
about numbers and things that serve me no purpose whatsoever.

Actually it's not even so much for trying, I just don't do it.

Now I might accidentally stumble upon a figure like that, but no, I have no
earthly idea how many acres of grass I've cut this year...

Now if I get to where curiosity is killing me I get on the stock market LOL
that usually cures it LMFAO and fast hahaha

Ya I would say that acreage is a number that isn't looked at. Some guys bid by the square foot on larger commercial properties and weed control, but acreage isn't necessarily calculated in there.

I would put an hour meter on a machine and see how many hours you've mowed in a season. That would be a good number to look at.

Any number, just thought maybe others were curious about how many hours/acres they spent/cut...
