We have roughly 10 acres of shelterbelt clearing, plus close to 2 miles of single row tree removal to do this summer, probably more once we get going. We have decided that it's probably time to invest in a mulching head to put on the 770 and are looking for opinions on a couple of different ones. These are two possibilities.

Are we on the right track, or should we look at something else? We don't plan on taking entire trees down, but some of the big trees leave pretty substantial roots sticking up so I'm not sure a flail mower is the right answer? Can a mulcher run in the top couple inches of dirt to help smooth things out? I'm assuming we might only be looking at a 100 hours of so a year, depending on how well it works.
