This is the big reveal. I know I tease you guys for a while about what mower I was going to get, and this little baby has been on my radar for a long time. Take a look at the link below if you'd like to find out more about them. You need to plan on spending some money if you were going to go this route, but I guarantee you won't find anything that will roll smoother or cut cleaner than the Hudson Star.
www.hudsonstar...
I will likely get into the story of the company later on, because it's definitely worth sharing about. Here's the thing, this machine is light, easy to handle, stripes the grass, cuts perfectly clean, and requires almost no Maintenance. This particular unit is there a PGA model, it cuts down to 3/32 of an inch and will have the ball rolling so fast at that level.
The other equipment that I have in this video or the R and R level lawn rake, the R and R hole cutter, as well as some flags and cups from their website. Take a look below if you were unfamiliar with them, I do not receive any commissions or referrals from any company listed in this video.
www.rrproducts...
If you have been looking for a high-end, absolutely stellar reel mower that is light and easy to use, this could be the one for you. Just plan on getting your checkbook out because they are not cheap. You have to remember that for most reel mowers, the money isn't in the engine, it's in everything else.
Also in this video is some greens maintenance, top dressing, leveling with sand and levellawn rake, and just general info about the new putting surface.

Dude, I was so shocked when I saw that you had that old-school one. I called up Hudson a couple years ago because I really wanted one and sticker shocked myself out of it. I felt like it was just way too much mower for cutting regular old Bluegrass. When I decided I was going to build a green though, and maybe actually the mower had something to do with it, I knew that that was what I wanted straight away. You got such a steel on that thing and I am absolutely jealous!

I bought one that “Previously Groomed” someone else’s yard for two years and I bought it from their estate sale. It’s one of the finest made things that I’ve ever acquired in my life. I expect that it will last me forever with proper care and that’s the kind of things that I’ve always been interested in having. It’s so smooth and it cuts so perfectly and I expect that it always will.

That's a cool mower and as "green" as it gets. I'm so tired of breathing exhaust fumes when I mow the lawn. Great choice! Had to laugh at myself. I've been slightly concerned about the effect of walking all over and mowing twice my reseeding with kbg. Now I see I was clearly concerned about nothing. You're always redefining the "rules" in my mind, lol.

It's looking good and raising the mower up a little is making a big difference. If you have a place to store the sand to keep it dry, you should be able to do the weekly topdressing out of a fertilizer spreader. Also, the Hudson looks fantastic! Talk about low resistance and glide!

You’ll love that Hudson Star. My seven year old “made” me get her one to use ours and I haven’t used my toro very much since then. If I had time I might use it instead of the fairway mower for the whole yard. Also hard to beat brand new price for a ten year old gas that costs more in every way.

I got super excited when I saw this as a dad with 3 kids and a mortgage. I thought yes this is it! No motor has to mean affordable! WRONG! I mean geez what are the blades made out of carbon Japanese katana steel!? $2100! I just don't get why reel mowers are so expensive. There has to be a company that can produce a 5 to $700 reel mower for the average homeowner. Even a McLane with what 200$ briggs and straton engine is $1200. I think it would sell out. I'd be happy with cheap replaceable reels. Just give me something I can cut homemade green low. Anyways had to vent! Love your channel BTW 👍
