Default Grass Scythe VS Gas Powered Stihl BrushCutter RACE

Hey Cornell,

Thanks.

I've discovered YouTube SCYTHE Videos from all over the world.

Usually from County Fairs and competitions
pitting the Scythe against weedwackers.

People seem fascinated that the Scythe usually wins AND does a better job.

Here's one video race.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - If you use a scythe DO NOT Imitate this guy. You'll keel over in 15
minutes if you work your arms and upper body like this hr after hr.

I worked cutting 3 foot tall grass for four hours straight last weekend.
And felt good afterwards.

You pace yourself and use your legs instead of your arms.

It does help that my grandfather taught me when I was just a kid.
