World's Fastest Mower
![]() |
![]() |
Designed to pull behind a pickup, utility tractor or even a car, the "Tow Mow" allows inventor Bill Morris to reduce cutting time on his air strip to 1 hr., operating at speeds of up to 40 mph. The first-of-its-kind mower has been tested at speeds of up to 72 mph but Morris recommends speeds from 6 to 40 mph as the best operating range.
Morris used his knowledge of aerodynamics to develop the ground-driven mower's main cutting disc. The circular blade's height is adjustable and the 4-ft. wide mower can be ganged together in groups of three.
According to a recent report in THE LAND, a popular Australian magazine, the mower has caught on quickly for everything from mowing golf courses to mowing heavy brush.
Sells for around $2,500.
