My new SCAG Cheetah!

So after demoing 4 potentials, the ride of the Cheetah had me sold. The cut quality is night and day difference compared to the Deere in the picture. The mower itself is really easy to work on and functionally its easy to learn. I've only mowed with it 30 minutes, so tomorrow will be the true test as I have a large church that takes around 3 hours of cutting. I can already tell you though, the bahia and buckhorn that are such a pain for me to mow didn't stand a chance with the velocity deck.

I'll have to update the review tomorrow evening. By the way, the JD is for sale

I'm new here but, does your cheetah have traction issues like some talk about like when you try turn around does it spin .Because where i'm at the dealers don't have the bigger mowers like a cheetah or a turf tiger to demo so i need some info

I just purchased the 52" cheetah last week. No traction issues for me. It's a beast of a mower!

Congrats on the new scag! I came from a 737 as well and the QOC was a welcomed change.

I like JD and the 7 iron but thats a bold statement! Are you sure your buddy has a velocity and not an advantage deck?
