This dude?



Using a Honda mower (two blades) and I bag most of the year, so thatch isn't a problem. And I seen those deals, not far off of the aerators in form factor really. And, since I don't have a riding mower, what's pictured won't work very well.

Yeah. I thought about buying one it worked so well but haven't had to do heavy seeding like that since. So I figure it's like everything else that's "new and shiny". It's better to rent than to spend a ton of money on and rarely use.

I've got a Billygoat connection, so I didn't have to rent aerators or verticutters.
