Tow-behind or Rental aerator?
What are most of you doing about aerating your lawns? I have centipede grass and would like to aerate about twice a year. I have a Scag Freedom Z that can tow 250 lbs. so a tow-behind aerator should work OK. Now I know the ones from Lowes or Home Depot won't do the best job but I really don't want to go broke either
 . I also would not mind hiring a pro to do it.Any thoughts? Thanks!!

With all the red clay we have here I've got to put quite a bit of weight on mine to get good penetration of the soil. I would think this one would be comparable to the ones you rent at HD. You want to be sure to make several passes.

Pulling big aerator is a stretch for the Freedom z. I got a drum aerator from Agri Supply in Raleigh NC and pull it with a big ATV. The 4 wheeler handles it without any problem.
 Do a search for them.. they ship. I got the 48 spike aerator and it does a great job.

Cool road king... just got through doing some maintenance on my old electraglide.. had a drive belt put on and rebuilt the cv carb. Just like new!
The Triumph is really neat.. fuel injection opens a lot of possibilities for tuning. Got about 1K miles on it.. IMHO head and shoulders above a sportster.

How big of an area are you going to aerate? A walk behind works well and would be less money. Even if it takes you longer, you are only going to be doing it once or twice a year.
Have to get a picture of my restored (no repo parts) 1937 HD knucklehead for the OT posters.
