Subject: It depends


I have some experience with both. If your buying new, then I'd buy a discbine no question. I have rented a hesston discbine with steel on steel and was real impressed with the conditioning. I bought a used disc mower some time back and love the disc mower in opperation, but would never buy another used one. Too many idiot abuse disc mowers. I'm looking to up grade right now and am looking at Hesston haybines. I'm concerned that my disc mower is going to need way too much money put in it. Disc mower parts seem expensive. For me speed is a limited issue. The only hay I do is small odd shaped fields that we can't get 12row equipment into. I find that the fields tend to be so small and odd shaped, plus rough, that 7mph is about top for me even with a disc type cutter.
