SE South Dakota | Chad I put the BT choppers with the deck plates and the slow down kit on my 893 2 seasons ago. Used to have the JD knife rolls. The chopping job is substancially more aggressive on the head now over the JD knife rolls. But I will say that if you need the chopping of the stalks that the JD stalkmaster provides you will not find the job of the BT choppers, good enough.
One benefit of the Calmers is that the stump of the stalk is sort of frayed, not sharply cut off like the stalkmaster does. I would say that the tire stubble damage is far less than with the stalkmaster. On average I would say that the stump is going to be taller too and that would help with less tire damage, imo.
I was told that my head is not a chopping head, but it does do alot of chopping! Another neighbor just ordered the complete kit from Calmers. That makes 4 in my nearby area that I know of.
I think you would like the head with the bt choppers.
